1 00:00:02,800 --> 00:00:12,840 Speaker 1: Life audio. Have you ever had a moment that was 2 00:00:12,880 --> 00:00:15,520 Speaker 1: so disappointing or a season that was so disappointing that 3 00:00:15,560 --> 00:00:18,680 Speaker 1: you really stopped hoping that anything good would happen next. 4 00:00:19,320 --> 00:00:22,520 Speaker 1: That's what we see in Mark chapter sixteen. As these 5 00:00:22,560 --> 00:00:26,400 Speaker 1: women approach Jesus' tomb early in the morning. They are 6 00:00:26,440 --> 00:00:31,320 Speaker 1: not expecting anything good. They are carrying burial spices because 7 00:00:31,360 --> 00:00:35,120 Speaker 1: they believe ampurial is in order, and what they actually 8 00:00:35,159 --> 00:00:39,440 Speaker 1: find is so shocking that it brings weight and validity 9 00:00:39,520 --> 00:00:47,159 Speaker 1: to this resurrection story. Hey, everyone, welcome to how to 10 00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:49,280 Speaker 1: Study the Bible. I'm so glad you're here with me 11 00:00:49,440 --> 00:00:54,280 Speaker 1: as we experience the very real, very human, very unexpected 12 00:00:54,320 --> 00:00:58,320 Speaker 1: story of the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus together. 13 00:00:58,440 --> 00:01:00,840 Speaker 1: This is not just an anc in fable or in 14 00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:05,120 Speaker 1: old fairy tale. This is a real historical reality that 15 00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:08,720 Speaker 1: every single one of us has to reckon with. Who 16 00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:13,240 Speaker 1: is Jesus, Who is this person? And what is his 17 00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:17,440 Speaker 1: life and his resurrection mean for me? Today we're entering 18 00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:21,120 Speaker 1: into these last eight verses in Mark chapter sixteen, and 19 00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:23,720 Speaker 1: I want to read these to you and we'll explore 20 00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:26,759 Speaker 1: together what this ending means for all of us today. 21 00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:31,080 Speaker 1: So Mark Chapter sixteen starts this way. Saturday evening, when 22 00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:34,520 Speaker 1: the Sabbath ended, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, 23 00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:38,160 Speaker 1: and Salom went out and purchased burial spices so they 24 00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:41,559 Speaker 1: could anoint Jesus's body. Now, the reason that they waited 25 00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:43,959 Speaker 1: till the sabbath ended is it was unlawful to do 26 00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:46,679 Speaker 1: any work on the Sabbath. So when Jesus dies on 27 00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:50,800 Speaker 1: Friday afternoon, he stays with his body unprepared for burial 28 00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:54,120 Speaker 1: through the Sabbath. So we have Friday afternoon into Saturday, 29 00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:57,440 Speaker 1: Saturday afternoon Saturday night, so that's the second day, and 30 00:01:57,480 --> 00:01:59,960 Speaker 1: then it's the morning of the third day when they're 31 00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:02,360 Speaker 1: coming very very early. They've been waiting for the sun 32 00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:04,440 Speaker 1: to come up so that they can have the light 33 00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:06,680 Speaker 1: that they need to do the work they want to do. 34 00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:12,240 Speaker 1: They are so traumatized and sad, and they do what 35 00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:14,600 Speaker 1: they know to do, and they know how to prepare 36 00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:16,880 Speaker 1: a body for burial. So they've got the spices that 37 00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:19,400 Speaker 1: they bought the night before, and they go out to 38 00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:23,920 Speaker 1: anoint Jesus's body very early on Sunday morning, just at sunrise. 39 00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:26,200 Speaker 1: They went to the tomb. On the way they were 40 00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:28,560 Speaker 1: asking each other, who will roll away the stone for 41 00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:31,880 Speaker 1: us from the entrance to the tomb. But as they arrived, 42 00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:34,120 Speaker 1: they look up and saw that the stone, which was 43 00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:38,040 Speaker 1: very large, had already been rolled aside. When they entered 44 00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:40,480 Speaker 1: the tomb, they saw a young man clothed in a 45 00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:43,840 Speaker 1: white robe sitting on the right side. The women were shocked, 46 00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:46,880 Speaker 1: but the angel said, don't be alarmed. You were looking 47 00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:49,800 Speaker 1: for Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified. He isn't here. 48 00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:53,200 Speaker 1: He has risen from the dead. Look this is where 49 00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:56,519 Speaker 1: they laid his body. Now go and tell his disciples, 50 00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:59,919 Speaker 1: including Peter, that Jesus is going ahead of you to Galilee. 51 00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:02,880 Speaker 1: You will see him there, just as he told you 52 00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:06,800 Speaker 1: before he died. The women fled from the tomb, trembling 53 00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:09,760 Speaker 1: and bewildered, and they said nothing to anyone because they 54 00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:14,720 Speaker 1: were too frightened. The end. So before we go any further, 55 00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:18,200 Speaker 1: first things I want you to notice. Definitely notice that 56 00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:21,320 Speaker 1: the angel says, go and tell the disciples, including Peter. 57 00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:26,320 Speaker 1: Remember where we last left Peter in the story. The 58 00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:29,799 Speaker 1: very last thing that happened is that Peter betrayed Jesus, 59 00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:34,280 Speaker 1: just as Jesus predicted, and we saw Peter weeping bitterly 60 00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:41,360 Speaker 1: at his utter failure. So how perfect, how compassionate, how graceful, 61 00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:45,560 Speaker 1: how generous is it that the angels actually call Peter 62 00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:48,400 Speaker 1: by name to make sure that he knows the news, 63 00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:51,400 Speaker 1: because that was not the end of Peter's story, and 64 00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:55,880 Speaker 1: it is never the end of our story. Despite abject failure, 65 00:03:55,960 --> 00:04:00,440 Speaker 1: despite full betrayal, despite complete denial, Peter is called out 66 00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:02,840 Speaker 1: by the angel like he wants him to know that 67 00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:04,760 Speaker 1: this is not the end of the story, and it's 68 00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:06,880 Speaker 1: never ever the end of the story for us either, 69 00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:18,240 Speaker 1: which is beautiful. The other thing you might notice is 70 00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:21,000 Speaker 1: that the story just stops really abruptly. It says, the 71 00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:23,840 Speaker 1: women fled from the tomb, trembling and bewildered, and they 72 00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:26,040 Speaker 1: said nothing to anyone because they were too frightened. And 73 00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:28,840 Speaker 1: then you'll have a little note in your Bible and 74 00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:32,600 Speaker 1: it will say, the most ancient manuscripts of Mark conclude 75 00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:36,360 Speaker 1: with verse sixteen to eight, and then later manuscripts add 76 00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:39,680 Speaker 1: one or both of the following endings. So then we've 77 00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:43,360 Speaker 1: got a few more verses inside of this text that 78 00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:46,920 Speaker 1: kind of round out the story, and people, you know, 79 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:50,920 Speaker 1: debate where this story really leaves off. Did Mark mean 80 00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:53,800 Speaker 1: to end it at verse eight like he actually ended it, 81 00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:58,159 Speaker 1: or was the last part torn off and lost? Many 82 00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:00,479 Speaker 1: would argue that the last part was to wen off 83 00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:02,800 Speaker 1: and lost, because if you follow the arc of the 84 00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:05,359 Speaker 1: way that the book develops, the way that Mark is 85 00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:09,080 Speaker 1: telling the story, he is clearly making sure that Jesus 86 00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:12,440 Speaker 1: as Messiah is brought forth from beginning to end. So 87 00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:15,640 Speaker 1: it seemed very strange that he would end the story 88 00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:19,120 Speaker 1: in this place of confusion. We know that the women 89 00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:21,760 Speaker 1: actually did go on and tell the disciples about what 90 00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:23,799 Speaker 1: they had seen. We know that they were full of joy. 91 00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:26,000 Speaker 1: We know that the disciples ran to the tomb and 92 00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:28,400 Speaker 1: saw the same thing. We know that the resurrected Christ 93 00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:31,320 Speaker 1: appeared to people over the next forty days. We have 94 00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:34,040 Speaker 1: eyewitness testimony of that. We have it in other gospels. 95 00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:37,159 Speaker 1: So it's not like Mark knew something that other people didn't, 96 00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:40,880 Speaker 1: or Mark believed something that other people didn't. It does 97 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:44,320 Speaker 1: appear that we lost the end of the manuscript, so 98 00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:47,760 Speaker 1: that could be true, or it could be possible that 99 00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:50,839 Speaker 1: we're left with the cliffhanger. We're actually left with a 100 00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:53,760 Speaker 1: chance to enter into the story ourselves and to ask 101 00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:55,640 Speaker 1: ourselves the question what would it be like to be 102 00:05:55,680 --> 00:06:00,400 Speaker 1: at the tomb? When we encounter an empty two When 103 00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:02,800 Speaker 1: we think about the idea that Jesus was really really 104 00:06:02,839 --> 00:06:06,080 Speaker 1: dead and now he is not there, what does our 105 00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:08,800 Speaker 1: hearts say? Where does our hearts go? Do we believe 106 00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:13,719 Speaker 1: that Jesus is the risen Christ? Notice that the women 107 00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:15,800 Speaker 1: are worried about how they're going to get to the tomb, 108 00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:19,039 Speaker 1: and that they then are very fearful, but they're also amazed, 109 00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:22,320 Speaker 1: and that they hear about the resurrection before they really 110 00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:25,560 Speaker 1: understand it, which we see all through Mark when people 111 00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:29,359 Speaker 1: kind of the light of salvation dawns on them. And 112 00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:33,159 Speaker 1: I love the phrase dawning because if you've seen a sunrise, 113 00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:36,040 Speaker 1: you know that a sunrise is very subtle. It's not 114 00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:37,799 Speaker 1: like it's a blaring light that all of a sudden, 115 00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:40,040 Speaker 1: it's the middle of the day. It really comes upon 116 00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:43,760 Speaker 1: you quite subtly, and you'll see sort of gray first, 117 00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:45,760 Speaker 1: and then a little bit more light, and then parts 118 00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:48,200 Speaker 1: of the sky will be more light. And the idea 119 00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:52,280 Speaker 1: that the full understanding of our salvation really dawns on 120 00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:54,880 Speaker 1: us is kind of what I think we see here 121 00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:59,520 Speaker 1: with these women. The women brought these spices because they 122 00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:03,360 Speaker 1: plan on a burial. They had no sense that anything 123 00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:06,680 Speaker 1: different was going to happen, despite Jesus's prophecies, despite what 124 00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:10,200 Speaker 1: Jesus said, And we know that they were afraid, and 125 00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:14,680 Speaker 1: that perhaps Mark meant to leave this tension unresolved. But 126 00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:18,600 Speaker 1: what we also know is that these prophecies fulfilled, are continuing. 127 00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:22,280 Speaker 1: We saw the crucifixion story that Jesus was silent before 128 00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:24,280 Speaker 1: his accusers. We saw that he was silent in the 129 00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:26,400 Speaker 1: face of suffering, as it said in the Book of Isaiah. 130 00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:29,120 Speaker 1: But here's what the Book of Isaiah also says. Isaiah 131 00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:32,720 Speaker 1: forty three, verse nineteen says, see I am doing a 132 00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:36,800 Speaker 1: new thing. So here at the dawn of a new day, 133 00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:40,000 Speaker 1: at the beginning of a new week, in a garden 134 00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:42,400 Speaker 1: that is meant to remind us at the tomb of 135 00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:45,560 Speaker 1: the Garden of Eden, the beginning of the story of creation. 136 00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:49,240 Speaker 1: We are meant to see these signals as a sign 137 00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:52,920 Speaker 1: of new creation. What we see happening here in this 138 00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:57,560 Speaker 1: story is that death is defeated, that creation is renewed, 139 00:07:57,640 --> 00:08:01,760 Speaker 1: and that restoration is actually beginning here in this story. 140 00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:05,800 Speaker 1: That this is truly the beginning of a new age, 141 00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:09,400 Speaker 1: one where Jesus is, as it says elsewhere in scripture 142 00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:12,600 Speaker 1: the second atom, he is the beginning of a new 143 00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:16,320 Speaker 1: way of living, a new way of being men and 144 00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:20,000 Speaker 1: women in Christ. One of the things I love about 145 00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:22,640 Speaker 1: the way Mark ends is that it is unresolved and 146 00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:25,760 Speaker 1: that we do live into the tension of the unknown, 147 00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:29,239 Speaker 1: and that feels very human to me. It feels very real. 148 00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:32,240 Speaker 1: I wrote Not What I signed up For for seasons 149 00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:35,880 Speaker 1: that feel unresolved, for places and circumstances in our life, 150 00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:39,160 Speaker 1: or maybe we don't understand where the story is going. 151 00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:42,400 Speaker 1: So if you've been looking for some perspective, some healing, 152 00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:45,360 Speaker 1: maybe some hope for a difficult season that you're in, 153 00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:47,640 Speaker 1: or a difficult season that you've been through in your 154 00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:50,320 Speaker 1: life and you just haven't really processed where God was 155 00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:52,199 Speaker 1: in that, I'd love to invite you to check out 156 00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:55,040 Speaker 1: Not What I signed up For? Book and Bible study. 157 00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:58,360 Speaker 1: Free video series is included. You can get this anywhere 158 00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:09,680 Speaker 1: books are sold, okay, friends, So as we look at 159 00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:12,160 Speaker 1: these last eight verses of Mark, what does this mean 160 00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:15,960 Speaker 1: for us? And clearly we can be exploring the themes 161 00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:18,640 Speaker 1: of salvation and resurrection in our life on and on. 162 00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:21,719 Speaker 1: But for our purposes today, as we're doing just our 163 00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:25,040 Speaker 1: brief devotion, what do we pull from this passage today? 164 00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:26,880 Speaker 1: So a couple of things that I wrote down that 165 00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:30,520 Speaker 1: our principles that I think exist here is that hope 166 00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:34,440 Speaker 1: can begin before you have full clarity. You can begin 167 00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:37,080 Speaker 1: to hope for more even if you're not sure where 168 00:09:37,080 --> 00:09:40,040 Speaker 1: the story is going. The other is that I think 169 00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:44,360 Speaker 1: fear and faith can coexist. Honestly, I think we see 170 00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:47,880 Speaker 1: that all through the Gospel, that there is a process 171 00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:51,360 Speaker 1: of coming to trust and coming to faith. And it's 172 00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:54,600 Speaker 1: okay if it takes time, it's okay to be on 173 00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:57,240 Speaker 1: the journey. In fact, it's more than okay. It is 174 00:09:57,320 --> 00:09:59,719 Speaker 1: the way of Jesus that we would be on a 175 00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:05,240 Speaker 1: journey of ongoing discovery, of ongoing growth and ongoing holiness, 176 00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:10,760 Speaker 1: ongoing deeper places of trust and of faith. The resurrection 177 00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:15,160 Speaker 1: absolutely challenges our assumptions of what's possible. We are meant 178 00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:17,640 Speaker 1: to see that when God said, way back in the 179 00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:20,680 Speaker 1: Old Testament, when he said to Abraham, who is the 180 00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:24,360 Speaker 1: father of our faith, back in Genesis, is anything impossible 181 00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:27,559 Speaker 1: for God? He wants us to see that that is true. 182 00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:30,600 Speaker 1: In Genesis, it is true in the Gospels, and it's 183 00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:33,040 Speaker 1: true for us today that God is the one who 184 00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:36,199 Speaker 1: controls life and death, which means that there is nothing 185 00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:40,040 Speaker 1: impossible for him. I think we could also see here 186 00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:43,600 Speaker 1: that God brings life out of dead places, and that 187 00:10:43,640 --> 00:10:45,679 Speaker 1: there can be places in our own story, in our 188 00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:48,400 Speaker 1: life and our soul that might feel very dead, very dry, 189 00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:51,320 Speaker 1: very far from God. That does not mean that God 190 00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:55,760 Speaker 1: cannot breathe new life into those places, into those relationships, 191 00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:59,480 Speaker 1: into our emotions, into our spirit, in ways that go 192 00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:03,719 Speaker 1: far beyond anything that we could ever create for ourselves. 193 00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:07,160 Speaker 1: So as we wrap up this gospel, walking all the 194 00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:11,400 Speaker 1: way through the story of Jesus's life, his death, his resurrection, 195 00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:14,120 Speaker 1: and new life in Christ, here's a couple of things 196 00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:16,720 Speaker 1: I'd love to leave with you. The first is this, 197 00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:19,120 Speaker 1: is there a place in your life where disappointment has 198 00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:23,400 Speaker 1: made hope difficult? Could you take comfort in the experience 199 00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:25,520 Speaker 1: of these women and actually just say to God, I 200 00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:28,520 Speaker 1: want to confess my disappointment. I want to tell you 201 00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:31,920 Speaker 1: about my disappointment, and I want to claim hope again. 202 00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:35,839 Speaker 1: Can you stay open to hope even when life is unresolved? 203 00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:40,120 Speaker 1: And what would change if I believed even more today 204 00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:43,160 Speaker 1: that the resurrection was true. How would I live my 205 00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:47,080 Speaker 1: life if I knew that nothing is impossible for God? 206 00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:50,840 Speaker 1: What would that change in my perspective and in my outlook? 207 00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:55,520 Speaker 1: Even today? Our final psalm is this Psalm thirty verse five. 208 00:11:56,480 --> 00:12:00,320 Speaker 1: Weeping may stay for the night, but rejoicing come in 209 00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:03,760 Speaker 1: the morning. Friends, There is always a new season around 210 00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:06,760 Speaker 1: the corner. There is always reason to hope. There is 211 00:12:06,840 --> 00:12:09,920 Speaker 1: always the promise of abundant life being offered to you. 212 00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:12,400 Speaker 1: Even if you feel like your back is against the wall, 213 00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:14,440 Speaker 1: if you feel like you are in the bottom of 214 00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:17,120 Speaker 1: a pit, if you feel like you are crying out 215 00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:19,240 Speaker 1: to God and you're asking him to help you, he 216 00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:23,280 Speaker 1: will rescue you. He will come. You can help because 217 00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:26,079 Speaker 1: nothing is impossible with our God. And our God says 218 00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:28,880 Speaker 1: that there is nothing dead that can't come back to life. 219 00:12:28,880 --> 00:12:32,800 Speaker 1: So find hope in Him today our final prayer, Jesus 220 00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:36,720 Speaker 1: teach me to hope and to hope again in places 221 00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:41,000 Speaker 1: that feel closed off or dead. The story of the 222 00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:42,920 Speaker 1: Gospel of Mark and the story of our lives does 223 00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:45,760 Speaker 1: not have to end with fear. It moves towards hope 224 00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:49,760 Speaker 1: even before everything becomes clear.
