The Book Of Mark # 15

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 30, 2022

The calling of the twelve disciples is significant. These twelve men were special in that they were chosen to be the twelve disciples that the Lord Jesus Himself was going to teach and train.

These twelve men had opportunities that no other men who ever lived on this earth have had. Each disciple that Jesus called into the ministry had special skills. Many of them were fishermen, and He took their skill as fishermen and made them “fishers of men.” Let’s look at two things: I. THE ...read more

The Book Of Mark # 12

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 30, 2022

In this sermon I want to look at the Jewish Sabbath. When we start to look at some of the ridiculous things that the Jews taught about the Sabbath, it shocks us

The Book Of Mark #10

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 31, 2022

One of the good things about the Gospel of Mark is the way that he gives us a continuous flow of information in the life of Christ. For example:
