Message

(Isaiah 53:4-6)

BY HIS WOUNDS
“In the Garden”
Luke 22:39-46; Mark 14:22-42

Introduction: The last days of Jesus has been described as the week of passion. The word passion not only means strong emotion or strong desire; it also means extreme suffering and distress. Jesus’ anguish would extent into the night before the cross in the garden of Gethsemane.

The Contrast of Two Gardens
The Garden of Eden (Genesis 2:8) (Genesis 3:24)
--a garden that had the potential to bring ruin
The Garden of Gethsemane (Mark 14:32)
--a garden that has the potential to bring redemption

The Curiosity of the Latter Garden
A Place of Retreat (Luke 22:39)
A Place of Prayer (Luke 22:40-41)

The Anguish of the Latter Garden
Physical Anguish (Luke 22:44)
Emotional Anguish (Mark 14:32-34)
Spiritual Anguish (Mark 14:35)

The Triumph of the Latter Garden
The Submission of the Savior (Mark 14:36)
The Sacrifice of the Savior (Mark 14:41-42) (Romans 3:23-26)

Application: Before there was a cross there was a garden. The prayers of the garden created the path to the cross.
The anguish and triumph of the latter garden proves the love that both God the Father and Jesus has for you.
What is your response?
