Mark - message 2

 

Exodus 21:1  Now these are the ordinances which you shall set before them.

21:2  If you buy a Hebrew servant, he shall serve six years; but in the seventh he shall go out free without payment to you.

21:3  If he came in by himself, he shall go out by himself; if he is the husband of a wife, then his wife shall go out with him.

21:4  If his master gives him a wife and she bears him sons or daughters, the wife and her children shall be her master's, and he shall go out by himself.

21:5  But if the servant plainly says, I love my master, my wife, and my children; I will not go out free;

21:6  Then his master shall bring him to God and shall bring him to the door or to the doorpost, and his master shall bore his ear through with an awl; and he shall serve him forever.

 

Psalms 40:6  You do not delight in sacrifice and offering; You have prepared ears for Me; You do not require burnt offering and sin offering.

 

Isaiah 42:1  Here is My Servant, whom I uphold, My chosen One in whom My soul delights; I have put My Spirit upon Him, And He will bring forth justice to the nations.

42:2  He will not cry out, nor lift up His voice, Nor make His voice heard in the street.

42:3  A bruised reed He will not break; And a dimly burning flax He will not extinguish; He will bring forth justice in truth.

42:4  He will not faint, nor will He be discouraged, Until He has established justice in the earth; And the coastlands will wait for His instruction.

 

50:4  The Lord Jehovah has given me The tongue of the instructed, That I should know how to sustain the weary with a word. He awakens me morning by morning; He awakens my ear To hear as an instructed one.

50:5  The Lord Jehovah has opened my ear; And I was not rebellious, Nor did I turn back.

50:6  I gave my back to those who strike me And my cheeks to those who pluck out the hair; I did not hide my face From humiliation and spitting.

50:7  The Lord Jehovah helps me; Therefore I have not been dishonored; Therefore I have set my face like a flint, And I know that I will not be put to shame.

 

53:2  For He grew up like a tender plant before Him, And like a root out of dry ground. He has no attracting form nor majesty that we should look upon Him, Nor beautiful appearance that we should desire Him.

53:3  He was despised and forsaken of men, A man of sorrows and acquainted with grief; And like one from whom men hide their faces, He was despised; and we did not esteem Him.

 

Matt 12:18  ``Behold, My Servant whom I have chosen, My Beloved in whom My soul has found delight. I will put My Spirit upon Him, and He will announce justice to the Gentiles.

19 He will not strive nor cry out, nor will anyone hear His voice in the streets.

20 A bruised reed He will not break, and smoking flax He will not quench until He brings forth justice unto victory.

21 And in His name will the Gentiles hope.''

 

Matt 20:28 Just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve and to give His life as a ransom for many.

 

Mark 1:14  And after John was delivered up, Jesus came into Galilee, proclaiming the gospel of God,

15 And saying, The time is fulfilled and the kingdom of God has drawn near. Repent and believe in the gospel.

 

Mark 1:21  And they went into Capernaum, and immediately, on the Sabbath, He entered into the synagogue and taught.

22 And they were astounded at His teaching, for He taught them as One having authority and not like the scribes.

 

Mark 1:25  And Jesus rebuked him, saying, Be quiet and come out of him!

26 And the unclean spirit, convulsing him and shouting with a loud voice, came out of him.

Mark 1:30  And Simon's mother-in-law was lying down with a fever, and immediately they told Him about her.

31 And He came to her and raised her up, holding her hand, and the fever left her, and she served them.

 

38 And He said to them, Let us go elsewhere into the nearby towns that I may preach there also, because for this purpose I came out.

39 And He went preaching in their synagogues in the whole of Galilee and casting out the demons.

40 And a leper came to Him, entreating Him and falling on his knees and saying to Him, If You are willing, You can cleanse me.

41 And He was moved with compassion, and stretching out His hand, He touched him and said to him, I am willing; be cleansed!

 

Mark 2:10  But that you may know that the Son of Man has authority to forgive sins on Earth--he said to the paralytic,

11 To you I say, Rise, take up your mat and go to your house.

 

Mark 3:10  For He healed many, so that as many as had afflictions pressed toward Him to touch Him.

11 And the unclean spirits, when they beheld Him, fell before Him and cried out, saying, You are the Son of God!

 

Mark 4:39 And having awoken, He rebuked the wind and said to the sea, Be silent! Be still! And the wind ceased and there was a great calm.

 

Mark 5:34  And He said to her, Daughter, your faith has healed you. Go in peace and be well from your affliction.

 

Mark 6:34  And getting out, He saw a great crowd, and He was moved with compassion for them because they were like sheep not having a shepherd, and He began to teach them many things.

 

Mark 7:31  And again He came out of the borders of Tyre and came through Sidon to the Sea of Galilee in the midst of the borders of Decapolis.

32 And they brought to Him one who was deaf and who spoke with difficulty, and they entreated Him to lay His hand on him.

33 And He took him aside from the crowd privately and put His fingers into his ears, and He spat and touched his tongue.

34 And looking up to heaven, He groaned and said to him, Ephphatha! that is, Be opened!

35 And immediately his ears were opened, and the bond on his tongue was released and he spoke clearly.

36 And He charged them not to tell anyone. But the more He charged them, so much the more they proclaimed it.

37 And they were utterly astounded, saying, He has done all things well; He makes both the deaf hear and the dumb speak.

 

Mark 8:23  And He took hold of the hand of the blind man and led him forth outside the village. And He spat on his eyes and laid His hands on him and asked him, Do you see anything?

 

Mark 10:14  But Jesus, seeing it, was indignant and said to them, Allow the little children to come to Me. Do not forbid them, for of such is the kingdom of God.

15 Truly I say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God like a little child shall by no means enter into it.

16 And taking them into His arms, He fervently blessed them, laying His hands on them.

 

Mark 10:35  And James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came to Him, saying to Him, Teacher, we want You to do for us whatever we ask You.

36 And He said to them, What do you want Me to do for you?

37 And they said to Him, Grant to us to sit, one on Your right and one on Your left, in Your glory.

38 But Jesus said to them, You do not know what you are asking. Are you able to drink the cup which I drink, or to be baptized with the baptism with which I am baptized?

39 And they said to Him, We are able. And Jesus said to them, The cup which I drink you shall drink, and with the baptism with which I am baptized, you shall be baptized.

40 But to sit on My right or on My left is not Mine to give, but it is for those for whom it has been prepared.

41 And when the ten heard this, they began to be indignant concerning James and John.

42 And Jesus called them to Him and said to them, You know that those who are esteemed as rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their great ones exercise authority over them.

43 But it is not so among you; but whoever wants to become great among you shall be your servant,

44 And whoever wants to be first among you shall be the slave of all.

45 For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve and to give His life as a ransom for many.

 

John 5:19  Then Jesus answered and said to them, Truly, truly, I say to you, The Son can do nothing from Himself except what He sees the Father doing, for whatever that One does, these things the Son also does in like manner.

John 5:30  I can do nothing from Myself; as I hear, I judge, and My judgment is just, because I do not seek My own will but the will of Him who sent Me.

36 But I have the testimony which is greater than that of John, for the works which the Father has given Me to finish, the works themselves which I do, testify concerning Me that the Father has sent Me.

 

John 6:38  For I have come down from heaven not to do My own will but the will of Him who sent Me.

 

John 7:16  Jesus therefore answered them and said, My teaching is not Mine, but His who sent Me.

 

John 8:26  I have many things to say and to judge concerning you, but He who sent Me is true, and what I have heard from Him, these things I speak to the world.

 

John 12:49  For I have not spoken from Myself; but the Father who sent Me, He Himself has given Me commandment, what to say and what to speak.

 

John 14:31 But this is so that the world may know that I love the Father, and as the Father commanded Me, so I do. Rise, let us go from here.

 

John 17:4  I have glorified You on earth, finishing the work which You have given Me to do.

 

Acts 3:13  The God of Abraham and Isaac and Jacob, the God of our fathers, has glorified His Servant Jesus, whom you delivered up and denied in the presence of Pilate, when he had decided to release Him.

 

Acts 10:26  But Peter raised him up, saying, Rise up; I myself am also a man.

27 And as he talked with him, he entered and found many who had come together.

28 And he said to them, You understand that it is unlawful for a man who is a Jew to join himself to or come near one of another race; yet God has shown me that I should not call any man common or unclean.

29 Hence, even without objection I came when I had been sent for. I ask therefore, For what reason have you sent for me?

30 And Cornelius said, Four days ago to this hour I was praying at the ninth hour in my house, and behold, a man stood before me in bright clothing,

31 And he said, Cornelius, your prayer has been heard and your alms have been remembered before God.

32 Send therefore to Joppa and call for Simon, who is surnamed Peter; this man is lodging in the house of Simon, a tanner, by the sea.

33 Therefore I sent men at once to you, and you have done nobly in coming. Now therefore we all are present before God to hear all the things that have been commanded to you by the Lord.

34 And opening his mouth, Peter said, In truth I perceive that God is not a respecter of persons,

35 But in every nation he who fears Him and works righteousness is acceptable to Him.

36 The word which He sent to the sons of Israel in announcing the gospel of peace through Jesus Christ (this One is Lord of all)

 

Roma 1:1  Paul, a slave of Christ Jesus, a called apostle, separated unto the gospel of God,

2 Which He promised beforehand through His prophets in the holy Scriptures,

 

1Cor 9:19  For though I am free from all, I have enslaved myself to all that I might gain the more.

20 And to the Jews I became as a Jew in order that I might gain Jews; to those under law, as under law (though I myself am not under law), that I might gain those under law.

21 To those without law, as without law (though I am not without law to God but within law to Christ), that I might gain those without law.

22 To the weak I became weak that I might gain the weak. To all men I have become all things that I might by all means save some.

23 And I do all things for the sake of the gospel that I may become a fellow partaker of it.

 

2Cor 12:15  But I, I will most gladly spend and be utterly spent on behalf of your souls. If I love you more abundantly, am I loved less?

 

Gala 2:20  I am crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I who live, but it is Christ who lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live in faith, the faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself up for me.

 

Gala 5:13  For you were called for freedom, brothers; only do not turn this freedom into an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another.

 

Ephe 5:2  And walk in love, even as Christ also loved us and gave Himself up for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling savor.

 

Ephe 5:25  Husbands, love your wives even as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself up for her

 

Phil 1:8  For God is my witness how I long after you all in the inward parts of Christ Jesus.

 

Phil 2:5  Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus,

6 Who, existing in the form of God, did not consider being equal with God a treasure to be grasped,

7 But emptied Himself, taking the form of a slave, becoming in the likeness of men;

8 And being found in fashion as a man, He humbled Himself, becoming obedient even unto death, and that the death of a cross.

9 Therefore also God highly exalted Him and bestowed on Him the name which is above every name,

 

Phil 2:17  But even if I am being poured out as a drink offering upon the sacrifice and service of your faith, I rejoice, and I rejoice together with you all.

 

2Pet 1:1  Simon Peter, a slave and apostle of Jesus Christ, to those who have been allotted faith equally precious as ours in the righteousness of our God and Savior, Jesus Christ:

 

Jude 1:1  Jude, a slave of Jesus Christ and a brother of James, to those who are called, beloved in God the Father, and kept by Jesus Christ:

 

Reve 1:1  The revelation of Jesus Christ which God gave to Him to show to His slaves the things that must quickly take place; and He made it known by signs, sending it by His angel to His slave John,

 

Reve 22:3  And there will no longer be a curse. And the throne of God and of the Lamb will be in it, and His slaves will serve Him;
