Mark 15: 42-47
Joseph from Arimathea was an important man and he loved Jesus. It took courage for him to go and ask for the body of Jesus and take charge of its burial. Most men in his position would not have wanted to risk their reputation by being associated with this scandal.
Are we afraid to be associated with Jesus because of what our believing friends might think? Instead of being afraid, consider what a wonderful opportunity we have to share the good news of Jesus with others. We don't have to beat unbelievers over the head with God's message. A gentle and loving disposition is much more effective.
