Repent, and believe in the gospel." (Mark 1:15)
Follow Me (Mark 1:17)
Repent, Believe, Follow. These three words will be the focus of my attention for the next few weeks. They are the words of Jesus found in the first chapter of Mark. They are significant markers that point the way to radical transformation. As a matter of fact, I believe the message of these three words is unavoidable in life. We must confront the need for repentance if we have any concern for direction in life. All of us must reckon with the question of belief. And in the infamous words of Bob Dylan, we gotta "serve somebody". Who do we follow? Three words strategically located in the early pages of the Gospel according to Mark. Jesus knew they packed the power to rock our world. But, that's why He came.
