Spanish Sermons in Mark

Christ’s resurrection at Easter is the pivot upon which everything in the Christian faiths turns. We either reject the resurrection of Christ and remain blind to the truth or we believe and trust in Christ and are released from the power of sin and death.

God’s Word upholds everything moment by moment. The total coherence and dependence of the creation refers us back to the Creator God.

Christ's enemies at his crucifixion behaved just as the enemies of the Gospel do today. And so, for today's Church, the crucifixion exemplifies God's love and the world's hostility.

Unlike Adam who failed at his calling and hid from God, Christ struggles through prayer and serves as the obedient Son to restore all creation back to God.

Christians are called to work for the kingdom and to pursue a life of watching in contemplation and prayer.

We have received a kingdom and an inheritance, but woe to us if we now take offence at God’s Word. The Lord will crush those who deny Him the fruit of His vineyard.

The temple simultaneously represents our own hearts, the church of Christ, and the whole earth. Jesus will cleanse and restore everything.

Jesus faced suffering resolutely because He found strength in drawing close to God. Jesus had been in God’s presence in prayer. He knew Scriptures had to be fulfilled. It was His delight to do the Father’s will.

Wealth makes a claim on your life; if your whole identity is tied to your wealth, you cannot give it up to become a disciple of Jesus.

Marriage is rooted in God’s creation norms; in a world tainted by sin Jesus calls us to be faithful in marriage, persevering through challenges.

The transfiguration unveiled the nature of Christ’s kingdom glory. In an age of unbelief we must act on our faith in the victory of Christ over all things.

Like the Pharisees Peter saw the issue of Christ’s identity in man-centred terms. To follow Jesus means to deny our own interests and to prioritize His interests.
