They would not believe! The reasons were many, but mainly because of their fear, their fainting and their foolishness. When they finally were brought along however, they became fearless. That's why it is just as critical for us today to remember that we too, need to believe! https://www.faithbaptist1.us/sermons/816162353260 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 07 Aug 2016 12:00:00 +0000 Pastor Dave Davenport 1:09:52 no Pastor Dave Davenport - Mark Series https://www.faithbaptist1.us/sermons/816161623373 Pilate marveled, the people were moved and the persecutors mocked. The centurion bore witness, the women watched and Joseph continued waiting. But in the center of a whirlwind of contrasting reactions to Jesus, His face was set like a flint, having committed Himself to conquer all that stood between us and the Father. And praise God, He actually did it by giving His life...for ours. https://www.faithbaptist1.us/sermons/816161623373 Religion & Spirituality Mon, 01 Aug 2016 12:00:00 +0000 Pastor Dave Davenport 1:04:42 no Pastor Dave Davenport - Mark Series https://www.faithbaptist1.us/sermons/717162328126 We see on this infamous night the Lord Jesus maintaining complete control. In so doing, he Prepares His Disciples, He is Pressed in Gethsemane, He is Persecuted by the Establishment and He is Preserves His Errant Child, Peter. Disciples were stumbled (fell) when they fled, the Lord Himself fell in the Garden, the world's system fell when it laid hands on Him and Peter fell in the denial. None of it was pretty. But all of it reminds us to "watch". https://www.faithbaptist1.us/sermons/717162328126 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 17 Jul 2016 12:00:00 +0000 Pastor Dave Davenport 1:00:18 no Pastor Dave Davenport - Mark Series https://www.faithbaptist1.us/sermons/91516235393 As a part of our series, it was important to dwell on the Lord's Supper at this point in Mark's Gospel. And much there is to glean! We find special light in the worshipers, the work and the way. Worship goes deep and from the heart. The work of the disciples confirms and strengthens for what lies ahead and the way Jesus provided was to a destination He has presented all along: the tangible Kingdom! Draw near and worship. https://www.faithbaptist1.us/sermons/91516235393 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 03 Jul 2016 12:00:00 +0000 Pastor Dave Davenport 1:09:06 no Pastor Dave Davenport - Mark Series https://www.faithbaptist1.us/sermons/71616152341 This is the panorama Jesus gives to His disciples to help them understand the details of the coming of the kingdom of God in real time. He taught them with nearly no clear reference to the parenthetical "Church Age". Those who understand these things will not walk in darkness, even in these darkening times. https://www.faithbaptist1.us/sermons/71616152341 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 26 Jun 2016 12:00:00 +0000 Pastor Dave Davenport 1:07:17 no Pastor Dave Davenport - Mark Series https://www.faithbaptist1.us/sermons/614161632497 Having Cleansed the Temple in Jerusalem, Jesus now Confronts their Leadership. The parable calls them "husbandmen" from who the Lord sought fruit. Having stirred up their indignation, they subsequently try to challenge Him so as to discredit Him. The three leadership groups represented are the Hypocritical Legalists, the Headstrong Rationalists and finally the Humble (though a novice) Purist. To conclude the lesson here, Jesus shows His disciples what fruit He should have found in a poor widow. https://www.faithbaptist1.us/sermons/614161632497 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 12 Jun 2016 12:00:00 +0000 Pastor Dave Davenport 1:01:08 no Pastor Dave Davenport - Mark Series https://www.faithbaptist1.us/sermons/69161544485 Mark 11 presents the nuts and bolts of exercising faith as a believer. We see faith practiced & presented, then we see its principles and its promises. https://www.faithbaptist1.us/sermons/69161544485 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 05 Jun 2016 12:00:00 +0000 Pastor Dave Davenport 1:06:54 no Pastor Dave Davenport - Mark Series https://www.faithbaptist1.us/sermons/531161650576 Marriage & Divorce; Children & Parents; Loving God & Leaving all; and Ruling or Serving; these are all hot topics that each generation must confront. But the answer to each dilemma actually hinges upon the deliberate "choice" we make with regard to our allegiances. What "way" will you choose? https://www.faithbaptist1.us/sermons/531161650576 Religion & Spirituality Tue, 31 May 2016 12:00:00 +0000 Pastor Dave Davenport 1:04:05 no Pastor Dave Davenport - Mark Series https://www.faithbaptist1.us/sermons/52416168467 Here we revisit & further explain taking up the cross & denying self, for it sets the context of Jesus' revealing of the Kingdom of God, the Crisis of Man and the Calling of Sons represented in this chapter. There's a strong fatherly emphasis & a powerful warning to a world (religious & secular) that scandalizes the spiritual development of its children on a routine basis. https://www.faithbaptist1.us/sermons/52416168467 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 22 May 2016 12:00:00 +0000 Pastor Dave Davenport 1:06:43 no Pastor Dave Davenport - Mark Series https://www.faithbaptist1.us/sermons/523162227155 https://www.faithbaptist1.us/sermons/523162227155 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 15 May 2016 12:00:00 +0000 Pastor Dave Davenport 0:48:36 no Pastor Dave Davenport - Mark Series https://www.faithbaptist1.us/sermons/52162246190 The unbridled heart can lead us to overt denials of God's way, outright defilement in our way or the objective deliverance in our day to day. In chapter 6, the disciples hearts were hardened through adversity, so here we visit the condition of the heart from various angles and learn how vital it is to place a guard lest we deceive ourselves into believing God does not see us as we really are. It is we, not He, that cannot see. https://www.faithbaptist1.us/sermons/52162246190 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 01 May 2016 12:00:00 +0000 Pastor Dave Davenport 1:05:33 no Pastor Dave Davenport - Mark Series https://www.faithbaptist1.us/sermons/426161526591 Some of the elements that can discourage (think: de-courage)us included being Dishonored or disresepected, being culpable or guilty of Dereliction, the dissonant Distraction of a world gone mad, or the Disappointments of loss or fruitlessness. Jesus takes these difficulties head-on and shows us how to deal with that which continuously threatens to undo us. https://www.faithbaptist1.us/sermons/426161526591 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 24 Apr 2016 12:00:00 +0000 Pastor Dave Davenport 1:04:30 no Pastor Dave Davenport - Mark Series https://www.faithbaptist1.us/sermons/419162241460 The Demoniac from Gadara, Jairus the Ruler of the Synagogue and the Woman with the Issue of Blood. These instances in the life of the Lord Jesus especially illustrate how people come to a genuine, God-honoring faith. With all the confusion about what one needs to actually believe to be saved, this passage demonstrates the enduring truth that faith is based on evidence which then changes us in a remarkable way. https://www.faithbaptist1.us/sermons/419162241460 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 17 Apr 2016 12:00:00 +0000 Pastor Dave Davenport 1:02:29 no Pastor Dave Davenport - Mark Series https://www.faithbaptist1.us/sermons/4111616962 The demoniac before us sheds light on certain aspects of demonology that can help us appreciation the afflictions many in our day are facing, believers & unbelievers. Interestingly, this man, once delivered, will be the first one told to "go and tell". Infatuation with darkness is not new, and deliverance from darkness is possible. But the power of the darkness is the lie. Here, Mark turns on the light. https://www.faithbaptist1.us/sermons/4111616962 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 10 Apr 2016 12:00:00 +0000 Pastor Dave Davenport 0:58:47 no Pastor Dave Davenport - Mark Series https://www.faithbaptist1.us/sermons/45161614400 The Parables of the Soils set forth the definitive truth of the Kingdom of God. A proper understanding of this parable is therefore critical. Is it Lordship or free grace? Is it behavioral repentance or cognitive repentance? Jesus teaches the importance of our choice and that therefore there is a deliberate challenge in the Kingdom and a caution in the kingdom; and that also there will be a continuation of the kingdom and, at times, experiential crisis in the kingdom. By chapter's end, He drives home what real faith looks like. https://www.faithbaptist1.us/sermons/45161614400 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 03 Apr 2016 12:00:00 +0000 Pastor Dave Davenport 1:10:27 no Pastor Dave Davenport - Mark Series https://www.faithbaptist1.us/sermons/316161313323 We see the multitudes gathering and the Kingdom message spreading far and wide. But the "signs" Jesus gave were ultimately having little effect on the religious leaders over whom Jesus nevertheless "grieved". The disciples were chosen and the workload became almost overwhelming. But what we especially glean is the "Objective" is set forth, which is to "save life" (psuche = souls). And we also see that when the God's Kingdom prospers, there will inevitably be "Opposition". Interestingly the source of opposition was not just from His foes, but also from His friends. https://www.faithbaptist1.us/sermons/316161313323 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 13 Mar 2016 12:00:00 +0000 Pastor Dave Davenport 1:06:24 no Pastor Dave Davenport - Mark Series https://www.faithbaptist1.us/sermons/37161911110 In these follow up vignettes that Mark sets forth, some time has passed since Jesus was unable to go into Capernaum for a while as His fame made it difficult. Now upon returning to its streets, seeds of Jesus' teaching have taken root and afford us an insight into What He Taught, What He Sought, What He Brought and What He Wrought. Mark decidedly chose these events to give us a deeper glimpse into the Kingdom of God https://www.faithbaptist1.us/sermons/37161911110 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 06 Mar 2016 12:00:00 +0000 Pastor Dave Davenport 0:54:56 no Pastor Dave Davenport - Mark Series https://www.faithbaptist1.us/sermons/31161549242 The Gospel had a beginning and it is Mark who identifies it. In this chapter there are 3 distinct ways that he punctuates its substance and its significance. He shows us that it is discernible in the Coming of Christ, the Calling of Christ and the Cleansing of Christ. https://www.faithbaptist1.us/sermons/31161549242 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 28 Feb 2016 12:00:00 +0000 Pastor Dave Davenport 1:00:17 no Pastor Dave Davenport - Mark Series
