Mark (Program #26) – The Move of the Slave-Savior’s Gospel Service (15)
Mark chapter 10 present us with 3 cases all related to whether or not believers will enter into the kingdom of the heavens. The best known of this cases concern a rich young man who approach the Lord Jesus wanting to what he must do in order to have eternal life. The Lord’s word shocked the young man as well as the Lord’s disciples. For He instructed him to go and sell all that he had and give it to the poor. Well, the young man turned and walked away knowing that he was not able to meet such a demand. And then this famous exchange took place between the Lord Jesus and His followers.
Mark 10:23-27: “And Jesus, looking around, said to His disciples, How difficult it will be for those who have riches to enter into the kingdom of God! And the disciples were amazed at His words. But Jesus again answered and said to them, Children, how difficult it is for those who trust in riches to enter into the kingdom of God! It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God. But they were astonished beyond measure and said among themselves, Then who can be saved? Looking upon them, Jesus said, With men it is impossible, but not with God, for all things are possible with God.“
