R. In the Gospel of Mark we read that —
Christ preached with power and
authority —
Christ taught —
Christ healed the sick —
Christ performed miracles
Jesus cured those possessed by demons —
Jesus healed Peter's mother-in-law —
Jesus cures a leper, a paralytic
at Capernaum —
Jesus called the Apostles —
Jesus healed the man with
the withered hand —
They wanted to kill Jesus —
Jesus chose the 12 Apostles —
Large crowds gathered around
Him —
Jesus multiplied the loaves and the fish —
Christ's relatives called Him crazy —
Jesus tells us about His true kinsman
Mark 3: 31-35
Now his mother and his brothers arrived and, standing outside, sent in a message asking for him. A crowd was sitting round him at the time the message was passed to him, ‘Look, your mother and brothers and sisters are outside asking for you.’ He replied, ‘Who are my mother and my brothers?’ And looking at those sitting in a circle round him, he said, ‘Here are my mother and my brothers. Anyone who does the will of God, that person is my brother and sister and mother.’
R. We see the parables of Jesus —
the sower and the seed —
We hear Jesus teach about the Kingdom
and repentance —
We hear about Jarius' daughter —
Jesus is rejected at Nazareth —
We are told about the people looking
like a sheep without a shepherd
and the need of shepherds —
Jesus teaches the Apostles —
Mark 6: 7-13
Then he summoned the Twelve and began to send them out in pairs, giving them authority over unclean spirits. And he instructed them to take nothing for the journey except a staff—no bread, no haversack, no coppers for their purses. They were to wear sandals but, he added, ‘Don’t take a spare tunic.’ And he said to them, ‘If you enter a house anywhere, stay there until you leave the district. And if any place does not welcome you and people refuse to listen to you, as you walk away shake off the dust under your feet as evidence to them.’ So they set off to proclaim repentance; and they cast out many devils, and anointed many sick people with oil and cured them.
R. We hear about the Baptist
and his martyrdom —
Jesus walks on the water —
Jesus calms the storm —
Jesus worked other miracles —
We hear about the transfiguration —
We are called to walk by faith —
We beg God to give us faith —
Jesus worked miracles
Jesus taught
Jesus was transfigured —
We are to walk by faith
Genesis goes from Adam to Jacob —
The first 5 Books of the Bible are
the Pentateuch —
which are Genesis, Exodus,
Leviticus, Numbers and
Deuteronomy —
We see the People of God
We see God's relationship with
His people from Adam and
Eve —
We see God works in manifestations —
visions and dreams —
The Patriarchs in Genesis
are Abraham, Isaac and Jacob —
We see God's goodness and
love for us His People —
We know God created us in
His image and likeness —
We know the apex of
creation —
God is all just — man is punished
for their disobedience to God.
God gives promises despite
their sin —
Abraham we see is blessed
for his obedience and faith —
Abraham speaks to us in
faith today —
a model —
Abraham is blessed by God —
Sin and death come through Adam —
Well then; it was through one man that sin came into the world, and through sin death, and thus death has spread through the whole human race because everyone has sinned. Sin already existed in the world before there was any law, even though sin is not reckoned when there is no law. Nonetheless death reigned over all from Adam to Moses, even over those whose sin was not the breaking of a commandment, as Adam's was. He prefigured the One who was to come . . .
There is no comparison between the free gift and the offence. If death came to many through the offence of one man, how much greater an effect the grace of God has had, coming to so many and so plentifully as a free gift through the one man Jesus Christ! Again, there is no comparison between the gift and the offence of one man. One single offence brought condemnation, but now, after many offences, have come the free gift and so acquittal! It was by one man’s offence that death came to reign over all, but how much greater the reign in life of those who receive the fullness of grace and the gift of saving justice, through the one man, Jesus Christ. One man’s offence brought condemnation on all humanity; and one man’s good act has brought justification and life to all humanity. Just as by one man’s disobedience many were made sinners, so by one man’s obedience are many to be made upright. When law came on the scene, it was to multiply the offences. But however much sin increased, grace was always greater; so that as sin’s reign brought death, so grace was to rule through saving justice that leads to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
R. Noah's arc becomes the symbol
of the Church —
R. Men are saved from destruction
by the waters of baptism —
Abraham's faith still speaks
to us today — we see
as we read Hebrews
at weekly Mass —
We heard about Melchizedek
at weekly Mass —
We know the sacrifice of Christ —
God gave us an orderly universe,
but Adam and Eve sinned against God —
and this brought disorder
and death —
God's creation takes 6 days —
Then we see the sacredness of the 7th day —
God rested on the 7th day —
Man is the apex of creation —
We see God give him dominion
Genesis 1: 26 - 31
God said, 'Let us make man in our own image, in the likeness of ourselves, and let them be masters of the fish of the sea, the birds of heaven, the cattle, all the wild animals and all the creatures that creep along the ground.'
God created man in the image of himself,
in the image of God he created him,
male and female he created them.God blessed them, saying to them, ‘Be fruitful, multiply, fill the earth and subdue it. Be masters of the fish of the sea, the birds of heaven and all the living creatures that move on earth.’ God also said, ‘Look, to you I give all the seed–bearing plants everywhere on the surface of the earth, and all the trees with seed–bearing fruit; this will be your food. And to all the wild animals, all the birds of heaven and all the living creatures that creep along the ground, I give all the foliage of the plants as their food.’ And so it was. God saw all he had made, and indeed it was very good. Evening came and morning came: the sixth day.
R. God is like a potter to carve
man out of clay —
Man is supposed to delight
God, but man sins —
Man falls because of his
sin against God —
