Jesus is Willing - Mark 1:35-45 (01/24/21‪)‬ Better With God

    • Kristendom

In this passage, a leper approaches Jesus and says, “If you will, you can make me clean.” In this sermon, we delight in the willing heart of Jesus, and also learn more about the grid which most Pharisees viewed the world, a view that pivoted around two axes: Holy & Common and Clean & Unclean. This encounter sets the stage for the complete removal of that grid, and moves us from a life centered on rules and laws, to one centered on the Messiah sent from God.
