30 Days In The Gospel Of MarkSample

Thought:

Many people have questions about what will happen at the end of the world. Jesus taught His disciples about what would happen before He came back. Jesus warned His disciples that many people would try to fool them by pretending to be Jesus. He also warned His disciples that they would be persecuted but He promised to equip them with His Holy Spirit. Thinking about the things that will happen before Jesus returns can be scary, but remember that in the end, Jesus wins! God will help us every step of the way.
