CHRIST JESUS IS OUR PASSOVER - OUR LIVING WORD
Mark – Chapter 2
Mark 2:1 says, “And again he entered into Capernaum after [some] days; and it was noised that he was in the house.” Earlier, Christ Jesus had left Capernaum and now He has returned with His disciples and the people were immediately aware of our Lord’s presence. You feel the presence of Father God within your spiritual self when you speak with Him in prayer {communicating} through Christ Jesus.
Mark 2:2 says, “And straightway many were gathered together, insomuch that there was no room to receive [them], no, not so much as about the door: and he preached the word unto them.” Christ Jesus is our Living Word, the truth of the Holy Bible. When you listen to, share and teach those truths, just as people flooded this house of God where our Lord was teaching “thus saith our LORD”, so will those of this generation who have eyes to see and ears to hear flood those church's teaching truth. There will be no need to act as the pulpit gurus do within their churches with theatrics and drama to keep a congregation involved in their hallelujah assemblies that create emotional highs and lows for those calling themselves christians, never hearing real truth; playing church.
Mark 2:3 says, “And they come unto him, bringing one sick of the palsy, which was borne of four.” The “one {unity}” who lay sick {paralyzed} was carried by “four {creation, world}” other people, which means there were five in total, the number “five” meaning “grace or Father God’s goodness, unmerited favor.”
Mark 2:4 says, “And when they could not come nigh unto him for the press, they uncovered the roof where he was: and when they had broken [it] up, they let down the bed wherein the sick of the palsy lay.” They could not get close to Christ Jesus with this one who was paralyzed because there were so many people between them and our Lord. Here we see true faith in our Father God as these four actually climbed to the top of the house and removed the roof from the home where Christ was teaching from, and lowered the one sick before the presence of our Lord. They did not let anything or anyone stand between them and Christ Jesus, overcoming a difficult task because they knew, their faith was that strong, that our Lord Jesus Christ based on their faith, would heal this paralyzed man. Their actions surely captured the attention of Christ Jesus as He loves faithful children. We are a generation who now lives by faith and not by sight. Bless Father God as you show Him how faithful you are to Him; study our Father's Word and walk the path of a Christ-like child of Almighty God.
Mark 2:5 says, “When Jesus saw their faith, he said unto the sick of the palsy, Son, thy sins be forgiven thee.” Christ Jesus did not say this paralyzed man was healed, He said, “Son, thy sins be forgiven thee.” There is only “One” who can forgive sins and that is “Father God Almighty.” Here our Lord Jesus Christ has taught us just who He is declaring “when you have seen the Son, you have seen the Father [John 14:9]”, which means “Christ Jesus is Father God Almighty Himself” within the flesh, having been born from above. Our Lord has just declared this fact as He forgave this one sick of all sins committed. Love Father God, believe in Christ Jesus, repent from a pure heart, receive Father's forgiveness and do your best to live according to the Word of Almighty God which you have to study to know.
Mark 2:6 says, “But there were certain of the scribes sitting there, and reasoning in their hearts,” These scribes are the same pulpit gurus we have today with their big fancy churches and even the small church buildings on every corner. Just as these scribes [kenites] are listening to and watching all that Christ Jesus is doing as He teaches, saves and heals His children, the pulpit gurus of today watch the very elect who share and plant seeds of truth. The reason they listen and watch is because they are not ordained with wisdom of Father’s Word and they are not only jealous, also fearful of pulling people away from their whore houses {spiritually speaking} which means their ill-gotten gain will be depleted. They let the kenites [children of satan] sit at the helm of their church buildings and serve the devil, who is satan. So this is where the plotting against our Lord Jesus Christ begins, again, the kenites at the helm of this murderous conspiracy.
Mark 2:7 says, “Why doth this [man] thus speak blasphemies? who can forgive sins but God only?” Recognize that these kenites [children of satan deceiving the ignorant people into believing they are ordained of Father God], are speaking to each other, whispering as cowards do. What they are saying is this One calling Himself Christ Jesus is a fake because only Almighty God can forgive sins, therefore our Lord is blasphemous or demonstrating disrespect against our Father God. They knew who Christ Jesus is just as they do in this generation, however they do the deeds of their father satan, which is to keep people of this world off-balance, walking in babble and confusion, which draws them away from the love of our Father God.
Mark 2:8 says, “And immediately when Jesus perceived in his spirit that they so reasoned within themselves, he said unto them, Why reason ye these things in your hearts?” In an instant, before they could even put their thoughts together within their devious minds, Christ Jesus asked them straight up why they were thinking as they were against Him. “In His spirit” is the “Holy Spirit.” It is through the Holy Spirit that you communicate with our Father, who knows all of your thoughts, in the Name of Christ Jesus.
Mark 2:9 says, “Whether is it easier to say to the sick of the palsy, [Thy] sins be forgiven thee; or to say, Arise, and take up thy bed, and walk?” Christ Jesus so often taught by asking questions, and here our Lord is asking these pathetic, wicked, ignorant souls which would be most important to say, “thy sins be forgiven thee or Arise, and take up thy bed, and walk?” Simply stated, which would be the most logical to express. Christ Jesus is challenging them. This is why it is so important to have understanding of Father’s Word because these same types of so-called religious leaders are sitting as heads of churches throughout the whole earth.
Mark 2:10 says, “But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins, (he saith to the sick of the palsy,)” Christ Jesus is now speaking directly to the man who is sick with the palsy {paralyzed} so that all present will now come to know and understand just who Christ Jesus is and that He has all Power and Authority in Heaven and on earth, for “Christ Jesus and Father God are One.”
Mark 2:11 says, “I say unto thee, Arise, and take up thy bed, and go thy way into thine house.” Christ Jesus, having healed this man, has commanded him to get up by his own strength, pick up the bed he was laying upon and being healed by his faith, according to his own vigor, return to his home. When you walk a Christ-like path as you now live within your flesh body, pleasing Father God, your home with be forever in the Third or Eternal Earth Age.
Mark 2:12 says, “And immediately he arose, took up the bed, and went forth before them all; insomuch that they were all amazed, and glorified God, saying, We never saw it on this fashion.” The man did exactly as Christ Jesus had commanded and all the people, in awe, proclaimed Father God’s Power and Might because they had never seen anything such as this before. Naturally they would not have seen this glory of Father God before this time because Christ Jesus was not with mankind until He was born from above as our Savior, “Emmanuel which means God with us.” So our Lord has forgiven this man’s spiritual body of his sins and healed his physical body as well.
Mark 2:13 says, “And he went forth again by the sea side; and all the multitude resorted unto him, and he taught them.” Truth is what keeps away the famine caused by Biblical illiteracy. Just as those people followed and listened as Christ Jesus taught the Word of Father God Almighty, nourishing their souls, as we now live, many, many people flock to church buildings seeking these same truths. Problem is, they will find no truth there because those standing in the pulpits were not ordained by Father God and the greatest of them are kenites, children of satan. They have no knowledge of His Word because they are too busy stealing your money so they have stolen blessings, convincing you to receive blessings you have to give to their cause, and people fall for that ignorance. Christ Jesus paid the price on that cross at Calvary for all who want to have wisdom of Father’s Word to receive it without paying for it according to the flesh. Father’s Word is spiritual and our LORD will not deprive anyone who seeks truth with a pure, longing heart, and studying faithfully to show yourself approved.
Mark 2:14 says, “And as he passed by, he saw Levi the [son] of Alphaeus sitting at the receipt of custom, and said unto him, Follow me. And he arose and followed him.” “Levi” means “joined.” “Alphaeus” means “changing.” Levi was a tax collector. Notice once again, Christ Jesus did not ask Levi who is “Matthew {gift of Father God}” if he wanted to follow Him. Our Lord said, “Follow me” and Matthew did so without question, immediately. This again was because Christ Jesus knew him from the Spiritual or First Earth Age. Father God knows who is very elect are as is taught in Ephesians – Chapter 1 {4}. Our LORD knows He can trust and count on His very elect to do according to His good will and be a part of His Plan without question because they are endowed with the Holy Spirit and study, standing on our “Rock” who is Christ Jesus, our Living Word.
Mark 2:15 says, “And it came to pass, that, as Jesus sat at meat in his house, many publicans and sinners sat also together with Jesus and his disciples: for there were many, and they followed him.” Many of these people who followed Christ Jesus at this time were doing so because of the miracles our Lord blessed them with, and while they listened to the teachings of Christ Jesus; they were in awe of the power our Lord expressed through healings. In other words they were in admiration of those things they could see, feel and touch over those teachings that were spiritual.
Mark 2:16 says, “And when the scribes and Pharisees saw him eat with publicans and sinners, they said unto his disciples, How is it that he eateth and drinketh with publicans and sinners?” As it was then, so it is now. These self-righteous hypocrites are bothered by the fact that Christ Jesus was with those people the religious community threw to the wayside. You hear this in churches all the time as those standing in the pulpits condemn people of the world who most likely have more pure love from their hearts for Father God than those claiming religion and love with their lips and have hearts far from our LORD. The very elect of Father God know it is their responsibility to plant seeds of truth to those who are lost in the ways of the world so they come to accept and believe in Christ Jesus, repenting of their sins in His Holy Name before the Throne of Father God Almighty as they declare pure love for Him.
Mark 2:17 says, “When Jesus heard [it], he saith unto them, They that are whole have no need of the physician, but they that are sick: I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.” So now you see the difference between those who are righteous and those who are self-righteous hypocrites. If you are endowed with Father’s Spirit, you know that there is no need to share seeds of truth of salvation to those who claim to be saved, rather to those who need to hear and understand the salvation message so they can come to repentance. The cure for those spiritually sick is being taught truth so they have understanding of the Word of Father God Almighty since He loves all of His children. Christ Jesus is showing His election what they are expected to do so they are pleasing to our Father.
Mark 2:18 says, “And the disciples of John and of the Pharisees used to fast: and they come and say unto him, Why do the disciples of John and of the Pharisees fast, but thy disciples fast not?” The religious community wanted to know why it was necessary for them to fast as those in mourning while the disciples of Christ Jesus did not.
Mark 2:19 says, “And Jesus said unto them, Can the children of the bridechamber fast, while the bridegroom is with them? as long as they have the bridegroom with them, they cannot fast.” Christ Jesus is the Word of Father God Almighty and He was walking with His disciples; therefore there was no need for them to fast since they were full of joy being with our Lord. The disciples were happy as they walked with Christ, our Bridegroom, and making preparation for the wedding feast that shall come when Christ Jesus returns to this earth as “King of kings and Lord of lords.” The very elect of Father God as we now live share this same joy as our Lord left His Holy Spirit to abide with us as preparation is being made for the wedding feast when our Lord returns to this earth for the marriage; seeds of truth being planted until that time.
Mark 2:20 says, “But the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken away from them, and then shall they fast in those days.” When Christ Jesus was crucified upon that cross at Calvary, it was necessary for the disciples {very elect, bride of Christ}, to fast since it would be “fifty {Holy Spirit}” days after our Lord ascended to sit at the right hand of our Father in Heaven, that the Holy Spirit, which comforts hearts and minds, bringing spiritual peace even to this day, would abide with mankind. Acts – Chapter 2 teaches of the Holy Spirit residing with mankind on “Pentecost Day.” “Pentecost” means “the fiftieth day.”
Mark 2:21 says, “No man also seweth a piece of new cloth on an old garment: else the new piece that filled it up taketh away from the old, and the rent is made worse.” This is an analogy wherein if you have an old garment worn and washed many times, having gone from a size 12 to a size 8 {shrinkage} as a result of wash and wear, and you take a new piece of fabric to cover a place worn, when washed the new mended fabric would bulk and cause that apparel to look even worse since it will not shrink to match the old cloth, rather puckering. Spiritually speaking, using this analogy, Christ Jesus is saying you cannot take new truth and put it into a self-righteous hypocrite for them to understand because it will just cause them to bulk up with attitude since they cannot accept the real Word of Father God, that Good Gospel. They love their doctrines and traditions of men and the kenites [children of satan, male and female] see to it that those lies continue to spread through the congregations so they are ripe for the deception of satan when he is cast to this earth as the first/false christ.
Mark 2:22 says, “And no man putteth new wine into old bottles: else the new wine doth burst the bottles, and the wine is spilled, and the bottles will be marred: but new wine must be put into new bottles.” This is an analogy to say once again, that just as a wine skin becomes hard with aged wine within it, not fit to put new one into because it has lost the ability to be flexible, so are the hardened hearts of those calling themselves christians, and are not, who will not give up their false teachings or beliefs to accept the Truth of Father’s Word, that new wine with a new flexible spirit, rather being as a hard piece of clay that can no longer be shaped or molded. Therefore, people who have minds that have not been polluted with the doctrines and traditions of the religious community are far more receiving to hear Father’s Truth because their eyes will open and their ears will hear what “thus saith our LORD” with joy as He molds and shapes them with sought after understanding, and not what has become traditionally taught. It is impossible to understand Father’s Word if you are not “studying Chapter by Chapter, Verse by Verse, Precept upon Precept.” It is impossible to understand Father’s Word if you are heart-hearted and not pliable by the blessings of the Holy Spirit, understanding the teachings of Christ Jesus, studying to show yourself approved, receiving the increase of understanding only Father God can give.
Mark 2:23 says, “And it came to pass, that he went through the corn fields on the sabbath day; and his disciples began, as they went, to pluck the ears of corn.” The disciples were hungry and picked the corn as they went through the field to sustain their flesh bodies. Spiritually, "the corn fields" means "fit for sowing, to sow, scatter seed" being the teachings of the very elect who plant seeds of truth, which is Father's Word for all who will receive it. "To pluck" means "to raise up, elevate, lift up - to draw up, a fish {true christianity}." "The ears of corn" means "to stand." You seek the truth of our Father's Word, wherein you are walking a Christ-like path and with understanding and the blessings of our Father, you are able to stand against satan when he is cast to this earth to perpetrate the greatest deception ever to be known to mankind. Father God cannot choose you to stand if you have no knowledge of His Word.
Mark 2:24 says, “And the Pharisees said unto him, Behold, why do they on the sabbath day that which is not lawful?” Here go the Pharisees [kenites] with their false doctrines and traditions of men speaking about what is unlawful to our “Living Word Himself, Christ Jesus.” Christ did not say this was an unlawful act, the Pharisees did. Our Lord did not say it was unlawful for them to pluck and eat of the corn from the field on the sabbath day. As it was, so it is today as the pulpit gurus try to discredit the seeds of truth planted by the very elect which is not possible if you have eyes to see and ears to hear.
Mark 2:25 says, “And he said unto them, Have ye never read what David did, when he had need, and was an hungred, he, and they that were with him?” This is that time when David with his following was being chased by Saul and he, as well as all with him, did eat when his flesh was hungry, with the blessings of Father God, who always provides and takes care of His own “abundantly.”
Mark 2:26 says, “How he went into the house of God in the days of Abiathar the high priest, and did eat the shewbread, which is not lawful to eat but for the priests, and gave also to them which were with him?” “Abiathar” means “Father of abundance.” David went right into the synagogue taking all that was with him and they did eat [I Samuel – Chapter 21] because he was a priest, his following as well, of Father God, just as the very elect of this generation we now live in are, as they plant seeds of truth for all who will accept and seek the increase of understanding only Father God can give. “Christ Jesus is our Sabbath” and when you are a seed planter of His Word, the “Sabbath is every day” and the very elect work, teaching and sharing truth while those listening are resting and want to be fed. It is necessary to use the physical analogies to understand spiritual truth.
Mark 2:27 says, “And he said unto them, The sabbath was made for man, and not man for the sabbath:” “Sabbath” means “rest {Christ Jesus is our Rest/Sabbath [Hebrews – Chapter 4]}.” Father God gave us rest, the Sabbath, which is resting, refreshing yourself in the “Word of Father God Almighty, who is Christ Jesus, our Living Word.” It is a time to spend with Father praying and studying “thus saith our LORD” and this should be a feeding you do for your spiritual body every day.
Mark 2:28 says, “Therefore the Son of man is Lord also of the sabbath.” “Christ Jesus is our Lord; our Rest, our Sabbath.” This is where your peace of mind comes from and you can be sure if you do not have a spirit which communicates with Father God through Christ Jesus, there is upheaval within your spirit, within your life. As is taught in I Thessalonians – Chapter 5, when you follow Christ Jesus, you are children of the day {light}. Understanding truth grafts you to a part of the very elect of Father God, wherein you are a true christian, being a follower of Christ Jesus who is our Passover [I Corinthians – Chapter 5]. Our “Lord” is our “Highest Sabbath {having shed His blood on that cross at Calvary, defeating death [satan]}, for all of mankind.” This is why the “Sabbath {Christ Jesus}” was made for mankind and is not a particular time or day of the week [Colossians – Chapter 2] as the heathens teach; it is every day when you “abide with Father God Almighty through Christ Jesus, by the blessings of His Holy Spirit.”
Mark 2:2 says, “And straightway many were gathered together, insomuch that there was no room to receive [them], no, not so much as about the door: and he preached the word unto them.” Christ Jesus is our Living Word, the truth of the Holy Bible. When you listen to, share and teach those truths, just as people flooded this house of God where our Lord was teaching “thus saith our LORD”, so will those of this generation who have eyes to see and ears to hear flood those church's teaching truth. There will be no need to act as the pulpit gurus do within their churches with theatrics and drama to keep a congregation involved in their hallelujah assemblies that create emotional highs and lows for those calling themselves christians, never hearing real truth; playing church.
Mark 2:3 says, “And they come unto him, bringing one sick of the palsy, which was borne of four.” The “one {unity}” who lay sick {paralyzed} was carried by “four {creation, world}” other people, which means there were five in total, the number “five” meaning “grace or Father God’s goodness, unmerited favor.”
Mark 2:4 says, “And when they could not come nigh unto him for the press, they uncovered the roof where he was: and when they had broken [it] up, they let down the bed wherein the sick of the palsy lay.” They could not get close to Christ Jesus with this one who was paralyzed because there were so many people between them and our Lord. Here we see true faith in our Father God as these four actually climbed to the top of the house and removed the roof from the home where Christ was teaching from, and lowered the one sick before the presence of our Lord. They did not let anything or anyone stand between them and Christ Jesus, overcoming a difficult task because they knew, their faith was that strong, that our Lord Jesus Christ based on their faith, would heal this paralyzed man. Their actions surely captured the attention of Christ Jesus as He loves faithful children. We are a generation who now lives by faith and not by sight. Bless Father God as you show Him how faithful you are to Him; study our Father's Word and walk the path of a Christ-like child of Almighty God.
Mark 2:5 says, “When Jesus saw their faith, he said unto the sick of the palsy, Son, thy sins be forgiven thee.” Christ Jesus did not say this paralyzed man was healed, He said, “Son, thy sins be forgiven thee.” There is only “One” who can forgive sins and that is “Father God Almighty.” Here our Lord Jesus Christ has taught us just who He is declaring “when you have seen the Son, you have seen the Father [John 14:9]”, which means “Christ Jesus is Father God Almighty Himself” within the flesh, having been born from above. Our Lord has just declared this fact as He forgave this one sick of all sins committed. Love Father God, believe in Christ Jesus, repent from a pure heart, receive Father's forgiveness and do your best to live according to the Word of Almighty God which you have to study to know.
Mark 2:6 says, “But there were certain of the scribes sitting there, and reasoning in their hearts,” These scribes are the same pulpit gurus we have today with their big fancy churches and even the small church buildings on every corner. Just as these scribes [kenites] are listening to and watching all that Christ Jesus is doing as He teaches, saves and heals His children, the pulpit gurus of today watch the very elect who share and plant seeds of truth. The reason they listen and watch is because they are not ordained with wisdom of Father’s Word and they are not only jealous, also fearful of pulling people away from their whore houses {spiritually speaking} which means their ill-gotten gain will be depleted. They let the kenites [children of satan] sit at the helm of their church buildings and serve the devil, who is satan. So this is where the plotting against our Lord Jesus Christ begins, again, the kenites at the helm of this murderous conspiracy.
Mark 2:7 says, “Why doth this [man] thus speak blasphemies? who can forgive sins but God only?” Recognize that these kenites [children of satan deceiving the ignorant people into believing they are ordained of Father God], are speaking to each other, whispering as cowards do.

They knew who Christ Jesus is just as they do in this generation, however they do the deeds of their father satan, which is to keep people of this world off-balance, walking in babble and confusion, which draws them away from the love of our Father God.
Mark 2:8 says, “And immediately when Jesus perceived in his spirit that they so reasoned within themselves, he said unto them, Why reason ye these things in your hearts?” In an instant, before they could even put their thoughts together within their devious minds, Christ Jesus asked them straight up why they were thinking as they were against Him. “In His spirit” is the “Holy Spirit.” It is through the Holy Spirit that you communicate with our Father, who knows all of your thoughts, in the Name of Christ Jesus.
Mark 2:9 says, “Whether is it easier to say to the sick of the palsy, [Thy] sins be forgiven thee; or to say, Arise, and take up thy bed, and walk?” Christ Jesus so often taught by asking questions, and here our Lord is asking these pathetic, wicked, ignorant souls which would be most important to say, “thy sins be forgiven thee or Arise, and take up thy bed, and walk?” Simply stated, which would be the most logical to express. Christ Jesus is challenging them. This is why it is so important to have understanding of Father’s Word because these same types of so-called religious leaders are sitting as heads of churches throughout the whole earth.
Mark 2:10 says, “But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins, (he saith to the sick of the palsy,)” Christ Jesus is now speaking directly to the man who is sick with the palsy {paralyzed} so that all present will now come to know and understand just who Christ Jesus is and that He has all Power and Authority in Heaven and on earth, for “Christ Jesus and Father God are One.”
Mark 2:11 says, “I say unto thee, Arise, and take up thy bed, and go thy way into thine house.” Christ Jesus, having healed this man, has commanded him to get up by his own strength, pick up the bed he was laying upon and being healed by his faith, according to his own vigor, return to his home. When you walk a Christ-like path as you now live within your flesh body, pleasing Father God, your home with be forever in the Third or Eternal Earth Age.
Mark 2:12 says, “And immediately he arose, took up the bed, and went forth before them all; insomuch that they were all amazed, and glorified God, saying, We never saw it on this fashion.” The man did exactly as Christ Jesus had commanded and all the people, in awe, proclaimed Father God’s Power and Might because they had never seen anything such as this before. Naturally they would not have seen this glory of Father God before this time because Christ Jesus was not with mankind until He was born from above as our Savior, “Emmanuel which means God with us.” So our Lord has forgiven this man’s spiritual body of his sins and healed his physical body as well.
Mark 2:13 says, “And he went forth again by the sea side; and all the multitude resorted unto him, and he taught them.” Truth is what keeps away the famine caused by Biblical illiteracy.

Mark 2:14 says, “And as he passed by, he saw Levi the [son] of Alphaeus sitting at the receipt of custom, and said unto him, Follow me.

Notice once again, Christ Jesus did not ask Levi who is “Matthew {gift of Father God}” if he wanted to follow Him. Our Lord said, “Follow me” and Matthew did so without question, immediately. This again was because Christ Jesus knew him from the Spiritual or First Earth Age. Father God knows who is very elect are as is taught in Ephesians – Chapter 1 {4}. Our LORD knows He can trust and count on His very elect to do according to His good will and be a part of His Plan without question because they are endowed with the Holy Spirit and study, standing on our “Rock” who is Christ Jesus, our Living Word.
Mark 2:15 says, “And it came to pass, that, as Jesus sat at meat in his house, many publicans and sinners sat also together with Jesus and his disciples: for there were many, and they followed him.” Many of these people who followed Christ Jesus at this time were doing so because of the miracles our Lord blessed them with, and while they listened to the teachings of Christ Jesus; they were in awe of the power our Lord expressed through healings.

Mark 2:17 says, “When Jesus heard [it], he saith unto them, They that are whole have no need of the physician, but they that are sick: I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.” So now you see the difference between those who are righteous and those who are self-righteous hypocrites. If you are endowed with Father’s Spirit, you know that there is no need to share seeds of truth of salvation to those who claim to be saved, rather to those who need to hear and understand the salvation message so they can come to repentance. The cure for those spiritually sick is being taught truth so they have understanding of the Word of Father God Almighty since He loves all of His children. Christ Jesus is showing His election what they are expected to do so they are pleasing to our Father.
Mark 2:18 says, “And the disciples of John and of the Pharisees used to fast: and they come and say unto him, Why do the disciples of John and of the Pharisees fast, but thy disciples fast not?” The religious community wanted to know why it was necessary for them to fast as those in mourning while the disciples of Christ Jesus did not.

The disciples were happy as they walked with Christ, our Bridegroom, and making preparation for the wedding feast that shall come when Christ Jesus returns to this earth as “King of kings and Lord of lords.” The very elect of Father God as we now live share this same joy as our Lord left His Holy Spirit to abide with us as preparation is being made for the wedding feast when our Lord returns to this earth for the marriage; seeds of truth being planted until that time.
Mark 2:20 says, “But the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken away from them, and then shall they fast in those days.” When Christ Jesus was crucified upon that cross at Calvary, it was necessary for the disciples {very elect, bride of Christ}, to fast since it would be “fifty {Holy Spirit}” days after our Lord ascended to sit at the right hand of our Father in Heaven, that the Holy Spirit, which comforts hearts and minds, bringing spiritual peace even to this day, would abide with mankind. Acts – Chapter 2 teaches of the Holy Spirit residing with mankind on “Pentecost Day.” “Pentecost” means “the fiftieth day.”
Mark 2:21 says, “No man also seweth a piece of new cloth on an old garment: else the new piece that filled it up taketh away from the old, and the rent is made worse.” This is an analogy wherein if you have an old garment worn and washed many times, having gone from a size 12 to a size 8 {shrinkage} as a result of wash and wear, and you take a new piece of fabric to cover a place worn, when washed the new mended fabric would bulk and cause that apparel to look even worse since it will not shrink to match the old cloth, rather puckering. Spiritually speaking, using this analogy, Christ Jesus is saying you cannot take new truth and put it into a self-righteous hypocrite for them to understand because it will just cause them to bulk up with attitude since they cannot accept the real Word of Father God, that Good Gospel. They love their doctrines and traditions of men and the kenites [children of satan, male and female] see to it that those lies continue to spread through the congregations so they are ripe for the deception of satan when he is cast to this earth as the first/false christ.
Mark 2:22 says, “And no man putteth new wine into old bottles: else the new wine doth burst the bottles, and the wine is spilled, and the bottles will be marred: but new wine must be put into new bottles.” This is an analogy to say once again, that just as a wine skin becomes hard with aged wine within it, not fit to put new one into because it has lost the ability to be flexible, so are the hardened hearts of those calling themselves christians, and are not, who will not give up their false teachings or beliefs to accept the Truth of Father’s Word, that new wine with a new flexible spirit, rather being as a hard piece of clay that can no longer be shaped or molded. Therefore, people who have minds that have not been polluted with the doctrines and traditions of the religious community are far more receiving to hear Father’s Truth because their eyes will open and their ears will hear what “thus saith our LORD” with joy as He molds and shapes them with sought after understanding, and not what has become traditionally taught. It is impossible to understand Father’s Word if you are not “studying Chapter by Chapter, Verse by Verse, Precept upon Precept.” It is impossible to understand Father’s Word if you are heart-hearted and not pliable by the blessings of the Holy Spirit, understanding the teachings of Christ Jesus, studying to show yourself approved, receiving the increase of understanding only Father God can give.
Mark 2:23 says, “And it came to pass, that he went through the corn fields on the sabbath day; and his disciples began, as they went, to pluck the ears of corn.” The disciples were hungry and picked the corn as they went through the field to sustain their flesh bodies. Spiritually, "the corn fields" means "fit for sowing, to sow, scatter seed" being the teachings of the very elect who plant seeds of truth, which is Father's Word for all who will receive it. "To pluck" means "to raise up, elevate, lift up - to draw up, a fish {true christianity}." "The ears of corn" means "to stand." You seek the truth of our Father's Word, wherein you are walking a Christ-like path and with understanding and the blessings of our Father, you are able to stand against satan when he is cast to this earth to perpetrate the greatest deception ever to be known to mankind. Father God cannot choose you to stand if you have no knowledge of His Word.
Mark 2:24 says, “And the Pharisees said unto him, Behold, why do they on the sabbath day that which is not lawful?” Here go the Pharisees [kenites] with their false doctrines and traditions of men speaking about what is unlawful to our “Living Word Himself, Christ Jesus.” Christ did not say this was an unlawful act, the Pharisees did. Our Lord did not say it was unlawful for them to pluck and eat of the corn from the field on the sabbath day. As it was, so it is today as the pulpit gurus try to discredit the seeds of truth planted by the very elect which is not possible if you have eyes to see and ears to hear.
Mark 2:25 says, “And he said unto them, Have ye never read what David did, when he had need, and was an hungred, he, and they that were with him?” This is that time when David with his following was being chased by Saul and he, as well as all with him, did eat when his flesh was hungry, with the blessings of Father God, who always provides and takes care of His own “abundantly.”
Mark 2:26 says, “How he went into the house of God in the days of Abiathar the high priest, and did eat the shewbread, which is not lawful to eat but for the priests, and gave also to them which were with him?” “Abiathar” means “Father of abundance.” David went right into the synagogue taking all that was with him and they did eat [I Samuel – Chapter 21] because he was a priest, his following as well, of Father God, just as the very elect of this generation we now live in are, as they plant seeds of truth for all who will accept and seek the increase of understanding only Father God can give. “Christ Jesus is our Sabbath” and when you are a seed planter of His Word, the “Sabbath is every day” and the very elect work, teaching and sharing truth while those listening are resting and want to be fed. It is necessary to use the physical analogies to understand spiritual truth.
Mark 2:27 says, “And he said unto them, The sabbath was made for man, and not man for the sabbath:” “Sabbath” means “rest {Christ Jesus is our Rest/Sabbath [Hebrews – Chapter 4]}.” Father God gave us rest, the Sabbath, which is resting, refreshing yourself in the “Word of Father God Almighty, who is Christ Jesus, our Living Word.” It is a time to spend with Father praying and studying “thus saith our LORD” and this should be a feeding you do for your spiritual body every day.
Mark 2:28 says, “Therefore the Son of man is Lord also of the sabbath.” “Christ Jesus is our Lord; our Rest, our Sabbath.” This is where your peace of mind comes from and you can be sure if you do not have a spirit which communicates with Father God through Christ Jesus, there is upheaval within your spirit, within your life. As is taught in I Thessalonians – Chapter 5, when you follow Christ Jesus, you are children of the day {light}. Understanding truth grafts you to a part of the very elect of Father God, wherein you are a true christian, being a follower of Christ Jesus who is our Passover [I Corinthians – Chapter 5]. Our “Lord” is our “Highest Sabbath {having shed His blood on that cross at Calvary, defeating death [satan]}, for all of mankind.” This is why the “Sabbath {Christ Jesus}” was made for mankind and is not a particular time or day of the week [Colossians – Chapter 2] as the heathens teach; it is every day when you “abide with Father God Almighty through Christ Jesus, by the blessings of His Holy Spirit.”
