Mark 14:1-31
Jesus’ anointing at Bethany
Mary of Bethany was one of Jesus’ friends, and always at His feet. Mary, Martha and Lazarus loved Jesus for who He was, not the miracles He performed.
She brings very expensive oil to anoint Jesus for burial.
She wanted to bless Jesus as an act of worship, without any expectations.
At this moment Judas decides to betray Jesus.
The Last Supper
Jesus was the host of this very special meal for Him
Jesus establishes the Eucharist
Jesus predicts Peter’s betrayal
The original Passover was eaten in haste, the new Passover involves sitting and spending time with Jesus.
1. How can you bless Jesus this week, just because of who He is?
2. When we take communion, remember that we have forgiveness and freedom because our sins have been nailed to the cross.
