Mark 7:31-37After his conversation with the Syrophoenician Mother, Jesus then encounters a deaf-mute, further challenging the Pharisees’ notions of uncleanliness. Many false preachers point to texts like these to promote the “Word of Faith” prosperity Gospel. In this sermon I argue Jesus heals us spiritually by loosing our bondage to sin.

Mark 7:24-30The Evangelist immediately shows the consistency of Jesus and his teaching by including His ministry into the region of Tyre and Sidon. In this third sermon I look at Jesus’ encounter with a Syrophoenician mother and discuss the only way to racial reconciliation.
Mark 7:14-23Expanding further on the previous teaching on the Law, Jesus now makes clear what the Pharisees had muddied. In this second sermon, I look at what defiles a person is not what he takes in with his mouth, but what comes out of the heart.
Mark 7:1-13Jesus continues his teaching, this time directed to the Pharisees. All of chapter seven is a teaching unit, and I will break it down into four sermons. In this first sermon, I look at the superiority of God’s Law over man-made traditions.
