Mark 15:42-47 Buried With Him

For the past several weeks we have stood at the foot of the cross, witnessing the unimaginable suffering, shame, and wrath our Savior endured for our sins. We have heard His cry, seen the veil torn, and watched even a hardened Roman centurion declare, “Truly this man was the Son of God!” And we know what comes next, the glorious resurrection! But before we see the women finding the empty tomb and hearing the good news, we need to pause at the tomb and hear Mark’s account of Jesus’ burial. The burial of Christ is an often-overlooked part of the good news. But the Jesus and the Apostles proclaimed it. The Burial is recorded in all four Gospels, proclaimed as part of the gospel by Paul in 1 Corinthians 15:3-4, and foretold by both Jesus and the Old Testament prophets. The burial of Jesus is not an afterthought but an essential part of God’s story. This Sunday, we will look at Mark 15:42-47, and we will do things a little differently than usual. In the first point of the sermon, we will walk through the straightforward account of Jesus’ burial and then, look at four powerful reasons why the burial matters deeply to our faith. When we rightly understand how the Scriptures speak of Jesus’ burial, it is no wonder why Paul proclaims that believers are "buried with Him in baptism" and "raised to walk in newness of life" (Rom. 6:4; Col. 2:12). I. The Burial of Jesus (Mark 15:42-47) II. Why Jesus’ Burial Matters Proves The Son of God Really Died (Matt. 27:62-65) Proves God Really Is Able & Faithful To Fulfill His Word (Matt. 12:40; Isa 53:9) Proves The Son Of God Rose Really From The Dead (John 20:6-9; Acts 2:29-31) Proves That Our Debt Really Is Paid In Full (Rom. 6:4; Col. 2:12)

Mark 15:33-41 In The Shadow Of The Cross (Part 2)

This Sunday, we will finish the sermon we began last week. Mark 15:21-41 is the climax of the book and what all of redemptive history has pointed toward. Jesus, the Son of Man, will give His life as a ransom for many, as He said earlier in Mark. Last week, we went into great detail describing the suffering and shame of the cross as Jesus. We discussed the vicious scourging that left Jesus too weak to carry the cross and the horrors of a Roman crucifixion. We also bore witness to the unrelenting mockery heaped upon His head from the various people around the cross, including the theives crucified with Him. As Jesus is crucified as a substitute for sin, He bears the suffering and shame that sin brought into the creation. However, the worst is yet to come. Mark 15:21-32 (last week’s text), surveyed Jesus’ first three hours on the cross (9am-12pm). This Sunday, in verses 33-39, darkness will descend upon the land as the Father pours out His wrath on the sins of a multitude no one can number, all heaped upon the head of the sinless Son. The torment of such judgment is so great that Jesus cries out “Why have you forsaken me?” quoting Psalm 22:1. Though it seems easier for us to understand the awful physical suffering of the cross, nothing can compare to the torment Jesus experiences as His Father pours the cup of His wrath upon His Son. We will examine this in depth on Sunday. Yet, in the midst of this day of great darkness, we also see the power of the cross. That power is displayed when Jesus dies, atoning for sin, and God tears the thick curtain in the temple, forever opening access to His presence through Jesus’ sacrifice. Moreover, the power of the cross also changes hearts. A Roman centurion who had no doubt witnessed many crucifixions sees the way Jesus dies and says, “Truly this man was the Son of God.” I am looking forward to diving into this text with you that we may see the cross in all its terrible beauty. III. The Judgment of the Cross (33-36) IV. The Power of the Cross (37-41)
