THE GOSPEL OF MARK - 52
Go Tell it on the Mountain
Mark 16:9-20 When Jesus rose early on the first day of the week, he
appeared first to Mary Magdalene, out of whom he had driven seven
demons. 10 She went and told those who had been with him and who were
mourning and weeping. 11 When they heard that Jesus was alive and that
she had seen him, they did not believe it.
12 Afterward Jesus appeared in a different form to two of them while they
were walking in the country. 13 These returned and reported it to the rest;
but they did not believe them either.
14 Later Jesus appeared to the Eleven as they were eating; he rebuked
them for their lack of faith and their stubborn refusal to believe those who
had seen him after he had risen.
15 He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all
creation. 16 Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever
does not believe will be condemned. 17 And these signs will accompany
those who believe: In my name they will drive out demons; they will speak in
new tongues; 18 they will pick up snakes with their hands; and when they
drink deadly poison, it will not hurt them at all; they will place their hands on
sick people, and they will get well.”
19 After the Lord Jesus had spoken to them, he was taken up into heaven
and he sat at the right hand of God. 20 Then the disciples went out and
preached everywhere, and the Lord worked with them and confirmed his
word by the signs that accompanied it.
Matthew 28:11-19 While the women were on their way, some of the
guards went into the city and reported to the chief priests everything that
had happened. 12 When the chief priests had met with the elders and
devised a plan, they gave the soldiers a large sum of money, 13 telling
them, “You are to say, ‘His disciples came during the night and stole him
away while we were asleep.’ 14 If this report gets to the governor, we will
satisfy him and keep you out of trouble.”15 So the soldiers took the money
and did as they were instructed. And this story has been widely circulated
among the Jews to this very day.
The Great Commission
16 Then the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus
had told them to go. 17 When they saw him, they worshiped him; but
some doubted. 18 Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in
heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19 Therefore go and make
disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the
Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 and teaching them to obey everything I have
commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the
age.”

FEAR, CONFUSION, SILENCE
Our response to sharing the truth:
URGENCY
APATHY
FEAR
Pick three people and pray for:
● Their SALVATION
● An opportunity to SHARE your GREATEST GIFT
● The COURAGE and WORDS when that door opens
Three things to remember:
● We can’t SAVE ANYONE.
● We measure OBEDIENCE by OBEDIENCE,
not by the OUTCOME.
● Sharing is not an OPTION, it is a COMMAND.
