Mark 14:53-72
Big idea: My Gospel faithfulness must be grounded in conviction not emotion
Two realities of Gospel faithfulness:
1) When I am faithful, I need not be fearful (v. 53-65)
Even when life isn’t fair, I choose to be faithful by:
a) living continually with gospel integrity
b) proclaiming the gospel lovingly
2) When I am unfaithful God is still merciful (v. 66-72)
Moving from emotional faith to convictional faith:
✓ realize the road to restoration begins with repentance
✓ live realistically not idealistically
✓ live through faith not in fear
✓ live with faithful conviction not fleshly compromise
