Edgefield Church Nashville – Sermons

must Jesus die? Mark?s telling of Jesus?s trial and crucifixion removes a couple possible explanations. Jesus didn?t die because he was guilty: the trial of Jesus shows no one found any legitimate legal reason to kill him. And Jesus didn?t die because he was powerless: Mark?s readers know Jesus is innocent and has power to overcome his captors, but he doesn?t defend himself. So why then? Jesus died to establish a kingdom you could live in. Mark?s chief irony and his central message is that Jesus comes to power and invites us into his kingdom through his death.
