The Sinful Results of Ignoring God | Mark 6:14–29 Shaun Marksbury | Quacco Baptist Church Sunday Evening Service | 13 August, 2017 We’re seeing what ignoring the Word of God allows in a person’s sin nature.  Herod’s sin led to irrationality and fault (vv. 14–16), inconsistency of faith (vv. 17–20), enticements of flesh (vv. 21–25), and iniquity and futility (vv. 26–29).

The Unbelief of False Believers | Mark 6:1–6 Shaun Marksbury | Quacco Baptist Church Sunday Evening Service | 30 July, 2017 This week, we are looking at how unbelief operates.  More to the point, we’ll see how unbelief operates among supposed believers.  So, we are examining the unbelief of false believers. What do we see?  First, unbelief causes false believers to be scandalized by Christ (vv. 1–4).  Second, unbelief causes false believers to be separated from Christ (vv. 5–6).  Let’s start our examination.
