Wednesday: Rejection and Reception
Daily Lesson for Wednesday 31st of July 2024
Read Mark 6:1-6. Why did Jesus’ hometown people reject Him?
Usually when a small-town person becomes popular, people back home bask in the attention. Not Nazareth. They were offended and surprised at Jesus’ success as a teacher and healer. His shift from being a builder to a teacher seemed hard for them to accept. There also may have been some animosity that He did most of His miracles in Capernaum (see Luke 4:23). And He had already had a disagreement with His family (Mark 3:31-35).
Read Mark 6:7-30. How does the mission of the Twelve Apostles contrast with the beheading of John the Baptist?

This is the third sandwich story in Mark (see lesson 3). The mission of the Twelve Apostles in taking the message of Jesus everywhere stands in sharp contrast with the imprisonment and silencing of the Baptist. The disciples are told to travel light and depend on others for support. This strategy actually makes missionaries dependent on the people they serve, which helps bond them to those who need their message.
But the Baptist had no such bond with Herod and his family. John’s death is told in shocking detail as the plotting Herodias takes advantage of Herod’s ambivalence and lust. Herodias’s daughter seems to add to the scandalous plan by the grotesque request that the Baptist’s head be delivered on a platter.
The silencing of the clarion voice of the Baptist occurs at the same time as the Twelve Apostles proclaim repentance, just as the Baptist did. John’s death foreshadows Jesus’. John is put to death, buried, and reported as risen from the dead (Mark 6:14-16,29), as Jesus would be (Mark 15:1-47 and 16:1-20). These parallel stories point toward a coming crisis for Jesus and His followers.

False Alarms
by David Geelan | 30 July 2024 | It’s a rude awakening: an uncomfortably loud whooping alarm, and a looping announcement: “Emergency, evacuate now.” I check the bedside clock and it’s 3:14 am. Suzie and I fumble to dress and stumble to the elevator, and head down to the lobby of our building. In a […] Source: https://atoday.org/false-alarms/
Finding Freedom Through Faith: Raja’s Liberation Story with AWR360°
Ranja found solace and encouragement in an AWR (Adventist World Radio) broadcast. This fortified her resolve to follow Jesus, regardless of the spirits' threats. The spirits, which had dominated Ranja life for years, resisted her newfound faith. They particularly detested her listening to AWR and repeatedly warned her against it. However, instead of succumbing to their threats, Ranja persisted in listening to the radio. She discovered that as AWR played, the spirits lost their control over her. Through fervent prayer, scripture reading, and AWR's broadcasts, the spirits eventually left her for good. Today, Raja lives as a free daughter of God
