Bible study 101

John 18:1-24

*(my own wording from reading)

We must trust God to work out his plan.

“The cup” refers to the suffering isolation, and death that Jesus would have to endure in order to atone for the sins of the world.

*the Jewish we’re given order to make arrest for minor infractions by Romans.

Jesus was betrayed and arrested.

*Peter and disciples deserted and denied Jesus, which caused pain to Jesus.

Mark 14:26-52

Jesus expressed his true feelings. But he did not deny or rebel against Gods will.

The sinless son of God took on our sins and was separated in his humanity from God for a while so that we could be externally saved.

Jesus was willing to pay any price to gain what is priceless - external life for his people.

Remember that in times of great stress, you are vulnerable to temptation, even if you have a willing spirit.

How to resist :
Keep watch
Pray to God
Seek support
Focus on purpose God has given you
