Grahame takes us back 2000 years into a garden near Jerusalem, where we see Jesus, in his great love for his Father and for us, give himself to God's will - his own death on a tree. What a hero, what a King!
From Series: "Servant King"
In the opening verses of this book, Mark asserts that Jesus is not just the long-awaited Jewish Messiah, but the very Son of God. When Peter dramatically reaches this conclusion at the hinge point of the gospel in chapter 8, a new question is posed: "What has this man come to do?" In the next eight chapters, it will become clear that this King has come to suffer, die, and after that, to rise. He is the Servant King, who gives His life as a ransom for many.
