Title: The Perfect Human Came to Imperfect Mankind
Text:
Series: Book of Mark
Prop: If Jesus is the perfect (true, complete, whole) human, then we must all come to him for completion/wholeness.
(1) He is the perfect human who is in prayer (v. 35 - 39)
(v. 35) his prayer is solitary (v. 36 - 37) his parishioners are still seeking(v. 38 - 39) his purpose is still singular
(2) He is the perfect human who has power (v. 40 - 45)
(v. 40 - 42) his compassion and his powerful activity (v. 43 - 45) his charge and continuing his powerful activity(v. 44) his command and it's powerful association [Moses]
Premise: Thus, Jesus is the perfect human, but how do we come to him?
Application:
(1) Recognize who it is that has come
(2) Repent of the reason why we needed him to come
(3) Receive him, in consideration of the compassion that he has shown
