Mark 14:1-42 (Sermon)

A Death That Meant Much More

Main point:  The stage was being set for the Saviour’s sacrifice; it meant salvation for us & suffering for Himself

1.  A woman’s anointing is contrasted against the others’ plotting of Jesus’ death (14:1-11)

2.  The Passover event & the Last Supper are correlated to Jesus’ death (14:12-25)

3.  The disciples’ unpreparedness is compared to the Master’s readiness for His own death (14:26-42)

Questions for consideration & discussion

a. For friends of our church:

Will you live under Jesus’ rule & receive His offer of salvation?

b. For followers of Christ:

i. How valuable is Jesus to you & what are you willing to give Him?

ii. What does Jesus’ death mean to you in your daily living?
