What do Christians believe about the suffering death and resurrection of Jesus as found in the Gospel of Mark?
Christians believe that it is an accurate historical record like the others. One difference might be that Mark probably got his information from Peter, who himself certainly was closely involved in events, whereas Matthew and John were certainly involved directly themselves. Luke, of course like Mark was not a direct eyewitness and probably got a lot of information from Paul and others. The details recorded in Mark show a contemporaneity with events, as well as his typical action style.
Most certainly there are no real contradictions between Mark and the other accounts -simply what you find in any other situation where people emphasize certain parts of a story. The important details, that Jesus died, was buried, and rose again are all present. Omissions and additions (in relation to the other three accounts) are not also contradictions, merely differences. Modern courts understand this principle.

How do Christians use the Bible stories to support their beliefs?
A:There is no one Christian belief and no one way the Bible is used to support those beliefs. Some believe the Bible is literally true and infallible. Other Christians believe the Bible is spiritually true, although it contains some errors of history. By believing the Bible is essentially true in all important respects, Christians feel their beliefs are well founded. If God spoke to Abraham, as told in the Bible, then this supports the Christian faith. If you begin to doubt this story, you will begin to doubt your faith.The stories of the New Testament prove, to the satisfaction of every true Christian, that Jesus lived and was capable of performing miracles. The resurrection stories prove Jesus' divinity, because few Christians ever compare the stories in each of the gospels and wonder why they are so different. Evenfewer Christians realise that the original New Testament gospel, now known as Mark's Gospel, originally ended at verse 16:8 with no resurrection appearances at all. Mark's Gospel was not about the physical resurrection but about the promise that Jesus would soon return on clouds of glory. Acts of the Apostles says that the earliest Christians were willing to die for their faith, which means it must all be true.
