Ending Well‼️ The Vilest of the vile, Mary Magdalene (Part 2)

By Pastor and Mrs Chifamba

1 John‬ ‭4‬:‭8‬-‭9‬ ‭

“He who does not love does not know God, for God is love. In this the love of God was manifested toward us, that God has sent His only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through Him.”

John‬ ‭14‬:‭15‬ ‭

“If you love me, you will keep my commandments.”

MARY RECIPROCATED DIVINE LOVE

Mark‬ ‭14‬:‭3‬-‭5‬ ‭

“And being in Bethany at the house of Simon the leper, as He sat at the table, a woman came having an alabaster flask of very costly oil of spikenard. Then she broke the flask and poured it on His head. But there were some who were indignant among themselves, and said, “Why was this fragrant oil wasted? For it might have been sold for more than three hundred denarii and given to the poor.” And they criticized her sharply.”

CHRIST IS THE DEFENDER OF THE HELPLESS, MARY DID NOT DEFEND HERSELF SHE LEFT IT TO THE LORD

Psalms‬ ‭35‬:‭1‬-‭2‬ ‭

“Plead my cause, O Lord, with those who strive with me; Fight against those who fight against me. Take hold of shield and buckler, And stand up for my help.”

Romans‬ ‭8‬:‭31‬ ‭

‭‭ “What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?”

‭‭Mark‬ ‭14‬:‭6‬ ‭

“But Jesus said, “Let her alone. Why do you trouble her? She has done a good work for Me.”

Mark‬ ‭14‬:‭9‬ ‭

“Assuredly, I say to you, wherever this gospel is preached in the whole world, what this woman has done will also be told as a memorial to her.”

TO MAINTAIN YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH CHRIST YOU NEED TO FEED ON HIS WORD

Romans‬ ‭10‬:‭17‬ ‭

“So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.”

Luke‬ ‭10‬:‭38‬-‭39‬ ‭

“Now it happened as they went that He entered a certain village; and a certain woman named Martha welcomed Him into her house. And she had a sister called Mary, who also sat at Jesus’ feet and heard His word.”

Luke‬ ‭10‬:‭41‬-‭42‬ ‭

“And Jesus answered and said to her, “Martha, Martha, you are worried and troubled about many things. But one thing is needed, and Mary has chosen that good part, which will not be taken away from her.”

THE WOMAN WHO WAS A SINNER WAS THE FIRST TO SEE THE RISEN LORD

Mark‬ ‭16‬:‭9‬ ‭

“Now when He rose early on the first day of the week, He appeared first to Mary Magdalene, out of whom He had cast seven demons.”

John‬ ‭20‬:‭14‬-‭17‬ ‭

“Now when she had said this, she turned around and saw Jesus standing there, and did not know that it was Jesus. Jesus said to her, “Woman, why are you weeping? Whom are you seeking?” She, supposing Him to be the gardener, said to Him, “Sir, if You have carried Him away, tell me where You have laid Him, and I will take Him away.” Jesus said to her, “Mary!” She turned and said to Him, “Rabboni!” (which is to say, Teacher). Jesus said to her, “Do not cling to Me, for I have not yet ascended to My Father; but go to My brethren and say to them, ‘I am ascending to My Father and your Father, and to My God and your God.’ ”

1 Corinthians‬ ‭15‬:‭20‬-‭22‬ ‭

“But now Christ is risen from the dead, and has become the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep. For since by man came death, by Man also came the resurrection of the dead. For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ all shall be made alive.”
