Description
  • Bolt explores the Gospel of Mark’s perspective on the Cross of Christ—its importance, significance, meaning, contribution to a theological understanding of penal substitutionary atonement, its implications for evangelism, and how it shapes both the preaching of the gospel and the meaning of Jesus’ death. The Gospel of Mark addresses the Cross in three main ways: (i) narratively, by employing storytelling devices to convey its impact, (ii) historically, by presenting the Crucifixion as a real event, and (iii) theologically, by highlighting the significance of Jesus’ death. Each lecture follows a consistent method: examining what a particular section of Mark teaches about the Cross, considering the Old Testament background that informs Mark’s presentation, briefly engaging with the Greco-Roman context and the gospel’s original audience, and finally reflecting on how the message speaks to our world today. 8:18
