| 0:05.6 | Mark chapter 14 verse 50 and they all left him and fled. Wow, this short verse says so much |
| 0:13.4 | as Jesus is betrayed and abandoned first by Judas and then by all his disciples. The context right |
| 0:20.8 | before this is Judas coming to Jesus kissing him, the soldiers laying hands on Jesus and seizing him |
| 0:28.4 | and after Jesus says, have you come out? I can still robber with swords and clubs to capture |
| 0:34.0 | me when I've been in the temple teaching. You didn't seize me then. Then he says let the |
| 0:37.8 | scriptures be fulfilled and that's when we read verse 50 and they all left him and fled this |

| 1:49.7 | perfectly, completely faithful. Is this not a rock for you and I to stand on and live in today? |
| 1:56.8 | That the one who made it all, the creator of the cosmos will never betray abandoned mocked |
| 2:04.2 | turn away from us. He will be with us. He will be with us to the end, save us to the full. |
| 2:12.7 | Oh Jesus, we praise you. You are totally unlike us in the sense that you are completely |
| 2:18.8 | perfectly faithful, infinitely faithful. There is no end to your faithfulness, no end to your love, |
| 2:26.1 | no end to your mercy, no end to your goodness toward us. We praise you and we say that you are |
