A verse by verse commentary on the Gospel of Mark chapter 13 dealing with the Apostles asking Jesus about the end times, and Jesus warns them about false teachers. He tells them they will suffer much persecution. Jesus will come again in the clouds and angels will gather his elect from all the ends of the earth. Only the Father knows when all this will take place.
In the last hours before His suffering Jesus will provide teaching concerning the judgement coming on the Jewish nation, and how His Apostles will remember Him after He is gone. (Mark 13:1-14:72)

ThreadAfter reading The Gospel Message article in the ModuleWe.docxVannaSchrader3
Thread:
After reading "The Gospel Message" article in the Module/Week 4 Reading & Study folder, answer the following questions (250–500 words). These questions are to be answered in separate paragraphs.
What are some ways the Christian gospel is perceived in our culture?
What are some specific moral reasons people may reject the Christian gospel?
What are some specific emotional reasons people may reject the Christian gospel?
What are some specific intellectual reasons people may reject the Christian gospel?
What can Christians do to address these objections and better communicate the Christian gospel?
The Gospel Message
The Apostle Paul said, “For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and also for the Greek” (Romans 1:16).
Paul should know, since his life was radically transformed when Jesus confronted him on the road to Damascus (Acts 9, 26:4–18).
Once he knew Jesus and His power, nothing held him back from telling others about the risen Christ.
He shared this gospel, the “good news,” with anyone who would listen to him, regardless of their religion or moral background.
Paul once wrote to a group of Christians telling them about this gospel.
He said:
Moreover, brothers, I declare to you the gospel which I preached to you, which also you received and in which you stand, by which also you are saved, if you hold fast that word which I preached to you—unless you believed in vain.
For I delivered to you first of all that which I also received: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, and that He was buried, and that He rose again the third day according to the Scriptures (1 Corinthians 15:1-4).
Be assured, this same gospel that changed and motivated Paul is for you and me today.
In understanding the gospel message we find out that:
Jesus paid the price for our sins (I Peter 3:18).
Our sins can be forgiven (Ephesians 1:7).
We can have eternal life by trusting in Him (John 3:15).
The word “gospel” is mentioned over 100 times in the Bible by Jesus and His disciples.
Jesus was the source and subject of this good news.
Jesus began his ministry by sharing this central truth, “The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand.
Repent, and believe in the gospel” (Mark 1:15).
Jesus personally shared the gospel with those who listened to Him and today He is sharing it through the Bible and those who know and follow Him.
He wants everyone to believe this gospel.
But why is the gospel needed and how do people come to
understand clearly what it means to become a follower of Christ and believe this gospel
message?
The Problem
The problem is that all people are born sinners and sin separates them from God.
“Your [sins] have separated you from your God” (Isaiah 59:2).
The problem started in the Garden of Eden.
Adam and Eve were given clear instructions by God.
They were free to eat of any tree in the gar.

In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.

The Book of Joshua is the sixth book in the Hebrew Bible and the Old Testament, and is the first book of the Deuteronomistic history, the story of Israel from the conquest of Canaan to the Babylonian exile.
13. ‘ Man in Sin’ is separated from ‘God’ The heavenly radiance on the right represents God. God is perfect and without sin. God loves us. God does not want us to perish, but to have everlasting life. But, our sins must be removed in order to have eternal life with God.
14. ‘ Man in Sin’ is separated from ‘God’ The figure on the left represents every person – like you and me. The darkness represents our sin. Sin is anything that God tells us not to do. The Bible says, “all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.” (Romans 3:23) Our sins separate us from God.
15. The Bible says, “God demonstrates His own love for us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” (Romans 5:8) The Bible also says that, “God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son (Jesus), that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have everlasting life.” (John 3:16) ‘ Christ on the Cross’
16. God loved us so much that He sent His only Son Jesus Christ to earth as a man. God made Jesus die on a cross to pay for our sins with His blood. He took our sins into His body on the cross so that we could come to God. (I Peter 2:24, 3:18) ‘ Christ on the Cross’
17.
18.
19. The Cross is the Bridge to God Jesus is the only way we can come to God. Jesus says in the Bible, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father (God) except through Me.” (John 14:6) Through Jesus, we can be forgiven of all our sins and be with God forever.
20. The Cross is the Bridge to God But just knowing about these things is not enough! We must choose to put our faith in Jesus - to trust in Him to save us from sin. (Eph 2:8-9) If you do not take the step of trusting in Jesus, then your sins are not removed! (Hebrews 4:2)
21. The Choices: Heaven & Hell The Bible says that whoever believes in Jesus has eternal life and is not judged. But whoever does not believe in Jesus has been judged already and the wrath of God remains upon him! (John 3:16, 18, 36) The penalty for sin is death, but eternal life through Jesus is a free gift from God.
22. The Choices: Heaven & Hell What choice will you make? Trust in Jesus Christ to be forgiven and have eternal life? (In Heaven – top panel) Or reject Jesus Christ and suffer eternal punishment in fire? (In Hell – bottom panel)
23. Love God and All People “ You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the great and foremost commandment. And a second is like it: you shall love your neighbor as yourself.” (Matthew 22:36-40)
24. Pray to God Constantly In prayer you can thank and worship God, ask for His help, confess your sins, and pray for others. “Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God.”
25. Study the Bible Daily Start with the Gospel of John; read chapter one each day. “Like newborn babes, long for the pure milk of the word, that by it you may grow in respect to salvation...” (I Peter 2:2) “If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word” Jesus in (John 14:23)
26. Meet With Other Christians God commands that Christians meet regularly for worship, prayer, Bible Study, and helping each other. “...not forsaking our own assembling together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another...” (Hebrews 10:25)
27. Tell Others About Jesus God wants us to tell other people How to Have Eternal Life with God by trusting in Jesus to save them from sin. You can use the EvangeCube and the information from this website to talk to others about Jesus! “And He (Jesus) said to them. Go into the world, and preach the gospel to all creation.” (Mark 16:15)
