He Is Risen! Mark Ch 15 & 16 (Resurrection Sunday Episode)
Transcript
All right, everyone.
2
:Welcome back to another
episode of I Can't, king Can.
3
:This is episode 38 and it is
Resurrection Sunday, so happy
4
:resurrection Sunday to you guys.
5
:I hope you had an amazing and blessed
day, and if you had an amazing and
6
:blessed day, all glory to our Lord
and Savior Jesus Christ, because it
7
:is because of him, because of his
sacrifice that we are here, that we have.
8
:More life to live and that we have all
of the blessings and all of the provision
9
:that he has provided to us, and not
just that our greatest gift of all is
10
:the Holy Spirit and his salvation that
came through his sacrifice on the cross.
11
:So you know what you
guys, I truly hope that.
12
:With time because it took me some time
to understand what today was about.
13
:Um, but I really do hope that you
guys can grow closer to God and
14
:closer at a closer relationship with
Jesus and really understand what
15
:his sacrifice on the cross meant and
what it means to us individually.
16
:Um, because everyone has a different
perspective of the sacrifice, even though.
17
:The entire world benefits from it if
we declare him our Lord and Savior,
18
:and we believe that he was crucified
for our sins and rose on the third day.
19
:If we believe we can all benefit and enjoy
and share the everlasting life that we
20
:are promised with Jesus and with God, but.
21
:Not everyone is there yet.
22
:Not everyone is there yet, so I encourage
you to pray for those around you.
23
:I encourage you to pray for your family.
24
:I know I for sure have
to do that a lot more.
25
:And I really did realize that in
the past, um, few weeks or so, that
26
:I don't pray for my own family, my,
my own blood as much as I should.
27
:And it pains me to say that, um, it is.
28
:A little bit embarrassing.
29
:Honestly, as a, as a Christian,
you would think that I am praying
30
:for everyone, and truth be told my
friends, is that we are not perfect.
31
:And sometimes our family is the one
that sees the most imperfections in us.
32
:And sometimes that just kind
of, you know, bounces off of
33
:each other and we just kind of.
34
:Well, I just kind of forget what's
important and their salvation is
35
:just as important as my salvation.
36
:So I am going to continue praying.
37
:And again, I encourage you guys
to pray for your own families as
38
:well because we tend to forget.
39
:We tend to forget that.
40
:And even though we, we have moments in
which, um, you know, things happen, uh,
41
:between family, even friends, uh, it
is important to pray for each other.
42
:Because there is nothing
stronger than prayer.
43
:Through prayer and supplication, we can
draw closer to Christ and he can be moved.
44
:He can be moved by our prayers.
45
:And, and it may not always be
what we want, but we for sure can
46
:get what we need through prayer.
47
:And if that's just getting closer
to Jesus, then we have it all.
48
:But, um, I do want to.
49
:Uh, shift a little bit
because today is resurrection.
50
:Sunday, I was going to do a special
episode with a friend of mine, but that
51
:didn't pan out the way that I expected it.
52
:Um, this entire weekend was
just, uh, a blur, honestly.
53
:But sometimes things just happen for a
reason, and while we may say, oh, things
54
:happen for a reason, you know, it's not.
55
:How you think it is, it's
really just God's will.
56
:As I was showering, um, I was thinking
kind of what to say, what to talk
57
:about today because I, even though
I do have to continue with the Sound
58
:Mind series and Ecclesiastes, um, I
wanted to take a pause because again,
59
:today is Resurrection Sunday and
what more important than to discuss.
60
:Then Jesus, there's
nothing more important.
61
:And even though this show is about Jesus,
um, today is the most important day.
62
:So anyway, I digress with that.
63
:Um, but as I was showering, I had
the thought of, wow, my plans for
64
:today's episode did not go well.
65
:Um, not that anything bad
happened, but I planned and
66
:planned for about a week or so.
67
:Um, with this, um, person to, to
go ahead and record the episode.
68
:And it was just one thing after
the other and it didn't happen.
69
:And then I had this thought, it was like
clear, clear conversation in my head, and
70
:I'm pretty sure that the Lord put that
in, in my head to share with you because
71
:I kept repeating it to myself after.
72
:Um, and those words were.
73
:You can only go as far as God's will.
74
:You can only go as far as God's
will and man, it is so true.
75
:It is so true because if you think
about it, there are times where you plan
76
:and you wait six months, for example,
to plan a trip and to do something,
77
:and you do it and it's amazing.
78
:But then there's other times where
you plan for even longer or maybe
79
:even shorter time than six months.
80
:And no matter what you do, how you
plan, where you go, it does not pan out.
81
:So that just kind of
goes to show you that.
82
:And at the end of the day,
everything that we do is God's will.
83
:And sometimes I do know from, you know,
from Sunday services, um, at my new church
84
:and even things that I have been reading
on my own, I have gotten bits and pieces.
85
:Um, so pardon me that I don't
actually have the scripture.
86
:Um, so don't quote me, but to the
effect of that, sometimes God allows.
87
:Certain things in your
life or things to happen.
88
:Um, not to teach us a lesson, but I
guess to show us that his will will
89
:allow us to go up to a certain point.
90
:But when it's a no, it's a no.
91
:And whether we specifically hear a
no or receive a no in the form of
92
:someone telling us, no, this isn't
gonna work, or, you know, for.
93
:Th lack of a great example.
94
:Sometimes there's just
silence and that's also a no.
95
:And God's will is very powerful.
96
:Um, so I just kind of wanted to talk
about that for a moment because I
97
:really had those words ingrained in my
mind as I was thinking of my planning
98
:and over-planning for today's episode.
99
:Um, you can only go as far as God's will.
100
:And man, I don't think I'm
ever gonna forget that.
101
:So I really hope that you guys also
take those words into account because
102
:maybe there is something in your
life that you are trying to plan
103
:for and it's just not working out.
104
:So maybe just kind of put it
on the back burner for a bit.
105
:Not because you're giving up, because
giving up or stopping something or
106
:slowing down on something is not.
107
:Uh, it's not a a, a, a nag on you that has
nothing to do with your character or who
108
:you are, but sometimes it's good to just
take a pause, collect yourself, collect
109
:your thoughts, and then maybe try again.
110
:Maybe you'll do better the next round.
111
:However, if you continue, you
continue, you're eventually
112
:gonna push through that door.
113
:But if it's not God's will,
it's not gonna go well.
114
:That's all I gotta say.
115
:Again today, resurrection Sunday.
116
:Thank you Lord.
117
:Thank you, Jesus for your sacrifice.
118
:Thank you for everything, not only
what you do in our daily lives and
119
:all the provision that you give us,
all of the blessings that we have
120
:around us, the blessings that we
forget about day in and day out.
121
:But thank you Lord for your
sacrifice on the cross and thank you.
122
:Thank you for, for.
123
:Leaving the proof behind for the world
to know with your word, with the Bible,
124
:that we can go back to and we can read
and we can share what it is that you
125
:did for us, Lord, because we want to
take as many people with us as possible.
126
:We wanna take as many people
with us as possible, Lord.
127
:So we thank you for your word.
128
:We thank you for what it means.
129
:We thank you that.
130
:You loved us enough.
131
:You loved us more than enough that
you loved us, period as horrible
132
:and as not shiny as we are.
133
:Um, we thank you, father, that
you give us grace and grace.
134
:Your grace abounds.
135
:Your grace is endless.
136
:Your mercy really has no bounds.
137
:Time and time again, we mess up and time
and time again, you are still there.
138
:So I pray, Lord, that the, that the
person on the other side of this
139
:is listening and they can think of
the things that they continue to
140
:do that grieve you just like me.
141
:I do not, I, I do not stand on the, on
the sideline and say that I'm perfect.
142
:I continue to grieve you too, God.
143
:And I am sorry Lord, for falling
short and we will always fall short.
144
:But I, I'm sorry God, for falling short
of the things that I know upset you and I
145
:know sadden you yet I continue to do them.
146
:So I pray that the person on the other
side of this can also take a moment
147
:to think of those things that they
continue to do time and time again.
148
:And I pray that you break.
149
:That cycle that you
break that chain in us.
150
:I pray that you remove the
need for us to do those things.
151
:I break, I, excuse me.
152
:I, I pray that you break whatever
situation it is that we have in
153
:our lives that no longer serves us,
whether it be a job, a relationship,
154
:an action, a way that we speak.
155
:A way that we treat
people, whatever it is.
156
:I pray that you break that in our
lives, that you sever those ties
157
:and that we never think about it.
158
:That we never want to
deal with it ever again.
159
:Because before we even get to that place,
we think of you Lord, and we seek you
160
:Lord, and we pray to you, father, and we
bring those things to your feet, Lord.
161
:That we bring those things to your feet
where nothing that is dark can get near.
162
:So I thank you, father.
163
:I thank you, Lord.
164
:I thank you for all of these
things that you've done for us.
165
:Thank you Lord for your, your love, your
sacrifice for absolutely everything.
166
:God, my words are not enough.
167
:My words will never be enough.
168
:I love you and I praise you.
169
:In the mighty name of Jesus Christ I pray.
170
:Amen.
171
:You guys, so I'm going to read Mark
chapter 15 and I was looking over
172
:Matthew and I know that a lot of people,
um, love reading the part in Matthew.
173
:I believe it was like.
174
:Chapter 24, 23.
175
:Um, it escapes me now, so I'm, I'm sorry,
but I know that most people like reading
176
:through Matthew for the portion of
scripture where Jesus is being crucified.
177
:But looking through the Bible today,
I was reading Mark, and I think it
178
:puts it together more concisely from
the moment where Jesus is facing.
179
:Pilot all the way through when Baras
takes his place and when the soldiers
180
:mock him, and then when he is on the
cross, when he dies, and then when he is
181
:in the tomb and eventually resurrects.
182
:So I wanted to read Mark chapter 15.
183
:I'm not going to stop and, um,
narrate anything while I'm reading.
184
:I just wanna read it through slowly and.
185
:Hopefully you guys on the other
side will just take it in and really
186
:grasp and understand these final
days and final moments in the life of
187
:Jesus and what he was going through.
188
:Um, I pray that these words from the
scriptures, directly from the scriptures,
189
:no interpretation by any means from me.
190
:I really hope and pray
that they reach your heart.
191
:Um, if you are listening and you are not.
192
:A follower of Jesus Christ.
193
:You have not given your life and
surrendered your life to Jesus
194
:Christ, our Lord and Savior.
195
:I pray that you do.
196
:I pray that these words and these things
that he went through really weigh heavy
197
:on your heart because there is nothing
heavier than the burden and the pain
198
:and the suffering that he endured.
199
:So if you could only understand and bear.
200
:The words that I'm reading
and it truly, truly move you.
201
:Um, I pray that it would
be closer to Jesus.
202
:So without further ado, I'm
going to read Mark chapter 15.
203
:Immediately in the morning, the chief
priests held a consultation with the
204
:elders and scribes and the whole council.
205
:And they bound.
206
:Jesus led him away and
delivered him to Pilate.
207
:Then Pilate asked him, are
you the king of the Jews?
208
:He answered and said to him, it is, as
you say, and the chief priests accused him
209
:of many things, but he answered nothing.
210
:Then Pilate asked him again
saying, do you answer nothing?
211
:See how many things they testify
against you, but Jesus still answered
212
:nothing so that Pilate marveled.
213
:Now at the feast, he was accustomed
to releasing one prisoner to
214
:them, whomever they requested,
and there was one name, Barba.
215
:Who was chained with his fellow
rebels, they had committed
216
:murder in the rebellion.
217
:Then the multitude crying aloud
began to ask him to do just as
218
:he had always done for them.
219
:But Pilate answered them
saying, do you want me to
220
:release you to King of the Jews?
221
:For He knew the chief priest had handed
him over because of envy, but the chief
222
:priest stirred up the crowd so that he
should rather release baras to them.
223
:Pilate answered and said to them again.
224
:What then do you want me to do with him?
225
:Capital H, meaning Jesus.
226
:What then do you want me to do with him?
227
:Whom you call the king of the Jews.
228
:So they cried out again, crucify him.
229
:Then Pilate said to them,
why, what evil has he done?
230
:But they cried out all
the more crucify him.
231
:So Pilate wanting to gratify the
crowd released Baras to them,
232
:and he delivered Jesus after he
had scorched him to be crucified.
233
:Then the soldiers led him away into the
hall called pre auditorium, and, and
234
:they called together the whole Garris.
235
:And they clothed him with purple
and they twisted a crown of thorns,
236
:put it on his head, and began to
salute him, hail king of the Jews.
237
:Then they struck him on the head with a
reed and spat on him and bowing the knee.
238
:They worshiped him and when they
had mocked him, they took the
239
:purple off him, put his crown.
240
:Put his clothes on him and
led him out to crucify him.
241
:Then they compelled a certain man,
Simon of Sian, the father of Alexander
242
:and Rufuss as he was coming out of the
country and passing by to bear his cross,
243
:and they brought him to the place gha,
which is translated place of a skull.
244
:Then they gave him wine, mingled with
myrrh to drink, but he did not take it.
245
:And when they crucified him, they divided
his garments, casting lots for them to
246
:determine what every man should take.
247
:Now it was the third hour and they
crucified him, and the inscription on
248
:and the inscription of his accusation
was written above the king of the Jews.
249
:With him, they also crucified
two robbers, one on his right
250
:and the other on his left.
251
:So the scripture was fulfilled, which
says, and he was numbered with the
252
:transgressors, and those who passed
by blaspheme, him wagging their heads
253
:and saying, aha, you who destroy the
temple and build it in three days, save
254
:yourself and come down from the cross.
255
:Likewise, the chief priests also
mocking among themselves with the
256
:scribes said he saved others himself.
257
:He cannot save.
258
:Let the Christ, the King of Israel,
descend now from the cross that we
259
:may see and believe even those who
were crucified with him reviled him.
260
:Now, when the sixth hour had come,
there was darkness over the whole
261
:land until the ninth hour, and at the
ninth hour, Jesus cried out with a
262
:loud voice saying, Eli, Eli Lama Ani.
263
:Which is translated, my God, my
God, why have you forsaken me?
264
:Some of those who stood by when they heard
that said, look, he is calling for Elijah.
265
:Then someone ran and filled a sponge
full of sour wine, put it on a reed
266
:and offered it to him to drink.
267
:Same.
268
:Let him alone.
269
:Let us see if Elijah will come to take
him down, and Jesus cried out with
270
:a loud voice and breathed his laugh.
271
:Then the veil of the temple was
torn in two from top to bottom.
272
:So when the centurion who stood
opposite him saw that he cried out like
273
:this and breathed his last, he said,
truly this man was the son of God.
274
:There were also women looking from
afar among who were Mary Magdalene.
275
:Mary, the mother of James and less of
Joseph and Salome, who also followed
276
:him and ministered to him when he was
in Galilee and many other women who
277
:came up with, with him to Jerusalem.
278
:Now, when evening had come, because it
was the preparation day, that is the
279
:day before the Sabbath, Joseph and a a
prominent council member who was with.
280
:Himself waiting for the kingdom
of God, coming and taking courage.
281
:Went into Pilate and asked
for the body of Jesus.
282
:Pilate, marveled that he was already
dead and summoning the centurion.
283
:He asked him if I had
been dead for some time,
284
:excuse me.
285
:Asked if he had been dead for some time.
286
:So when he found out from the centurion,
he granted the body to Joseph.
287
:Then he bought them fine linen, took
him down and wrapped him in the linen,
288
:and he laid him in a tomb which had
been hu out of the rock and rolled a
289
:stone against the door of the tomb.
290
:And Mary Magdalene and Mary, the mother
of Joseph's, observed where he was laid.
291
:Chapter 16
292
:Now.
293
:When the Sabbath was passed, Mary
Magdalene married the mother of
294
:James and Salome about bought spices
that they might come and anoint
295
:him very early in the morning.
296
:On the first day of the week, they
came to the tomb when the sun had
297
:risen and they set amongst themselves,
who will roll away the stone from
298
:the door for the tomb for us.
299
:But when they look up, they saw that
the stone had been rolled away for.
300
:It was very large.
301
:And entering the tomb.
302
:They saw a young man clothed in
a long white robe sitting on the
303
:right side, and they were alarmed.
304
:But he said to them, do not be alarmed.
305
:You seek Jesus of Nazareth
who was crucified.
306
:He has risen.
307
:He is not here.
308
:See the place where they laid him?
309
:But go tell his disciples and Peter that
he is going before you into Galilee.
310
:There you will see him as he said to you.
311
:So they went out quickly and fled
from the tomb for they trembled and
312
:were amazed and they said nothing
to anyone for they were afraid.
313
:Now, when he rose early on the
first day of the week, he appeared
314
:first to Mary Magdalene, out of
whom he had cast seven demons.
315
:She went and told those who had been
with him as they mourned and wept, and
316
:when they heard that he was alive and had
been seen by her, they did not believe.
317
:After that, he appeared in another
form to two of them as they walked
318
:and went into the country, and they
went and told it to the rest, but
319
:they did not believe them either.
320
:Later he appeared to the 11 as they
sat at the table and he rebuked their
321
:unbelief and hardness of heart because
they did not believe those who had
322
:seen him after he had risen, and he
said to them, go into the world and
323
:preach the gospel to every creature.
324
:He who believes and is baptized will
be saved, but he who does not believe
325
:will be condemned and these signs
will follow those who believe in
326
:my name, they will cast out demons.
327
:They will speak with new tongues,
they will take up serpents and
328
:if they drink anything deadly,
it will by no means hurt them.
329
:They will lay hands on the
sick and they will recover.
330
:So then after the Lord had spoken to
them, he was received up into heaven and
331
:sat down at the right hand of God and
they went out and preached everywhere
332
:the Lord working with them and confirming
the word through the accompanying signs.
333
:Amen.
334
:All right, my friends.
335
:Well, that is Mark chapter
15, and actually chapter 16.
336
:I didn't realize it was two, but I hope
that you guys have enjoyed this reading of
337
:what Jesus faced the last few days before
his, he was crucified and when he rose.
338
:Anyway, guys, thank you for listening.
339
:As always, thank you for being here.
340
:I love you all.
341
:I hope that this has blessed you.
342
:Until next time.
343
:Take care.
