highlighted Mark 15:23-39 ESV
And they offered him wine mixed with myrrh, but he did not take it.And they crucified him and divided his garments among them, casting lots for them, to decide what each should take.And it was the third hour when they crucified him.And the inscription of the charge against him read, "The King of the Jews."And with him they crucified two robbers, one on his right and one on his left.And those who passed by derided him, wagging their heads and saying, "Aha! You who would destroy the temple and rebuild it in three days,save yourself, and come down from the cross!"So also the chief priests with the scribes mocked him to one another, saying, "He saved others; he cannot save himself.Let the Christ, the King of Israel, come down now from the cross that we may see and believe." Those who were crucified with him also reviled him.And when the sixth hour had come, there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour.And at the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, "Eloi, Eloi, lema sabachthani?" which means, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?"And some of the bystanders hearing it said, "Behold, he is calling Elijah."And someone ran and filled a sponge with sour wine, put it on a reed and gave it to him to drink, saying, "Wait, let us see whether Elijah will come to take him down."And Jesus uttered a loud cry and breathed his last.And the curtain of the temple was torn in two, from top to bottom.And when the centurion, who stood facing him, saw that in this way he breathed his last, he said, "Truly this man was the Son of God!"

But the chief priests stirred up the crowd to have him release for them Barabbas instead.And Pilate again said to them, "Then what shall I do with the man you call the King of the Jews?"And they cried out again, "Crucify him."And Pilate said to them, "Why, what evil has he done?" But they shouted all the more, "Crucify him."So Pilate, wishing to satisfy the crowd, released for them Barabbas, and having scourged Jesus, he delivered him to be crucified.

highlighted Mark 14:22-25 ESV
And as they were eating, he took bread, and after blessing it broke it and gave it to them, and said, "Take; this is my body."And he took a cup, and when he had given thanks he gave it to them, and they all drank of it.And he said to them, "This is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many.Truly, I say to you, I will not drink again of the fruit of the vine until that day when I drink it new in the kingdom of God."

highlighted Mark 13:22-33 ESV
For false christs and false prophets will arise and perform signs and wonders, to lead astray, if possible, the elect.But be on guard; I have told you all things beforehand."But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light,and the stars will be falling from heaven, and the powers in the heavens will be shaken.And then they will see the Son of Man coming in clouds with great power and glory.And then he will send out the angels and gather his elect from the four winds, from the ends of the earth to the ends of heaven."From the fig tree learn its lesson: as soon as its branch becomes tender and puts out its leaves, you know that summer is near.So also, when you see these things taking place, you know that he is near, at the very gates.Truly, I say to you, this generation will not pass away until all these things take place.Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away."But concerning that day or that hour, no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.Be on guard, keep awake. For you do not know when the time will come.

highlighted Mark 13:14-20 ESV
"But when you see the abomination of desolation standing where he ought not to be (let the reader understand), then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains.Let the one who is on the housetop not go down, nor enter his house, to take anything out,and let the one who is in the field not turn back to take his cloak.And alas for women who are pregnant and for those who are nursing infants in those days!Pray that it may not happen in winter.For in those days there will be such tribulation as has not been from the beginning of the creation that God created until now, and never will be.And if the Lord had not cut short the days, no human being would be saved. But for the sake of the elect, whom he chose, he shortened the days.

Truly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, 'Be taken up and thrown into the sea,' and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that what he says will come to pass, it will be done for him.Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.And whenever you stand praying, forgive, if you have anything against anyone, so that your Father also who is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses."

Every way of a man is right in his own eyes: but the LORD pondereth the hearts. To do justice and judgment is more acceptable to the LORD than sacrifice. An high look, and a proud heart, and the plowing of the wicked, is sin.
