Series: Mark
Duration: 54 mins 35 secs
In one of our Lord's longest discourses, The Olivet Discourse, the things Jesus didn't say seem to get more attention than what He did say from Bible Scholars. Perhaps we can separate fact from fiction as we look at these scriptures again.

by John Copper
Passage: Mark 12:35-37 & Psalm 110:1-7
