Begin by telling the story of Mark in Acts but don’t tell the ending in the epistles.
Tell about how it was the ladies who stayed with Jesus until the end.
Mark 15:37 When Jesus cried out with a loud voice it was most likely a declaration of victory.
Peter was probably not close enough to hear what Jesus said but John was.
Secret disciples in Mark.
He regarded Jesus as the Messiah though so far he was a secret disciple (John 19:38).
But he took courage and went to Pilate boldly, a description unique to Mark.
His action was bold because: (a) he was not related to Jesus; (b) his request was a favor that would likely be denied on principle since Jesus had been executed for treason; (c) he risked ceremonial defilement in handling a dead body; (d) his request amounted to an open confession of personal loyalty to the crucified Jesus which would doubtless incur his associates’ hostility.
He was a secret disciple no longer—something Mark impressed on his readers.
Secret disciples in Mark are not afraid.
The people who should be afraid are not afraid.
The words and Peter, unique to Mark, are significant since much of Mark’s material likely came from Peter.
He was singled out not because of his preeminence among the disciples but because he was forgiven and still included in the Eleven despite his triple denial (cf.
14:66–72).
16:8 they said nothing to anyone because they were afraid.
They were even commanded to tell in verse 7 but they were afraid to do it.
We are just the same way when it comes to sharing what Jesus has done.
God does something supernatural in our lives and we are afraid to tell others because they might think we are crazy.
the people who shouldn't be afraid are afraid the people who should be afraid are not afraid.
I hope you have seen by now that in Marks gospel which is the book that portrays Jesus as the servant in action.
There are several places where Jesus do some act of service and the miraculous happen and then we are given the human response.
Most often the human response to this Divine action is fear.
Back in Mark 5 When the woman touches Jesus on his clothes and is healed.
Jesus says Who touched my clothes and she come to him with fear and trembling.
Even though she has been healed.
Her response to Jesus divine action was fear.
Remember back when Jesus calmed the storm?
He was walking to the on the water and they thought He was a ghost.
They cried out… He said do not be afraid.
Their response to Jesus Divine action is fear.
When Jesus was transfigured before James, John, and Peter and Elijiah and Moses appeared before them the bible says that the disciples were terrified.
Not just phobeo but ekphobeo.
What is funny about this is the disciples are often the ones in Mark’s Gospel protraied as being afraid or even Harod or the Pharisees.
It is the secret disciples who are not afraid.
The people who should be afraid are not afraid and the people who should not be afraid are the ones who are afraid.
It is one thing to overcome death and sin and Hell.
But it is a whole other thing to overcome fear.
Jesus conquered death so that we could conquer fear.
