First Word for Worship Our text this morng brgs us to deepeng conflict between Jesus nd Jewish uthorities. Ever sce Mrk 3:6, we ve known tht Phrisees nd or religious leders wnted to destroy Jesus. From this pot to end Mrk 13, we will discover why: Jesus, true meditor God s presence, fulfillment wht temple stood for, stnds gst ir corrupted temple worship nd ir filed wys selfslvtion. Tht s why y wnted to kill him. Truth be told, tht s why we wnt to kill Jesus too. As he comes gst our repeted ttempts to sve ourselves through our own versions worship, he pots us to better wy: full embrce nd restg Jesus himself s Wy, Truth, nd Life. We re constntly tryg to supplement this only wy; nd Jesus constntly comes gst those ttempts through Word, scrment, nd pryer. As we worship tody, we fd tht Jesus will del with thorns nd thistles s fr s curse is found tht s why Fr gve him for ss world. Thnks be to God! Welcome to Independent Presbyterin Church!
