CHRIST JESUS IS OUR PASSOVER - OUR LIVING WORD
Mark – Chapter 5
Mark 5:1 says, “And they came over unto the other side of the sea, into the country of the Gadarenes.” “Gadarenes” means “reward at the end.”
Mark 5:2 says, “And when he was come out of the ship, immediately there met him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit,” This is a man possessed by satan's spirit and he was residing where those who had passed away were laid out. “Tombs” means “any visible object for preserving or recalling the memory of any person or thing deceased.”
Mark 5:3 says, “Who had [his] dwelling among the tombs; and no man could bind him, no, not with chains:” This man was at the place of the dead [satan is death], the burial place, and he was free to roam since there is nothing earthly that can bound satan himself, however it was his spirit that was within this man. Only Father God can bound satan as he and the fallen angels are at this time chained in Heaven by authority of our Father, Michael the archangel seeing to it they remain in chains until Revelation 12:7 - 9 comes to pass. Christ Jesus sent satan to that bondage, Matthew 4:10 saying, "Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve." It is the spirit of satan that roams this earth seeking to house his evil spirit in the spirit of any person who will allow him to abode within them. After satan is cast to this earth to perpetrate the greatest deception ever to be known to mankind, he will be bound once again during the Millennial Kingdom teaching {one thousand years} as he taught in Revelation 20:1 - 3.
Mark 5:4 says, “Because that he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been plucked asunder by him, and the fetters broken in pieces: neither could any [man] tame him.” There is no earthly thing or person that can chain or bind satan, however if your spirit is possessed by his evil spirit, Christ Jesus can free you from this evil. Our Lord taught in Luke 10:19, "Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you." This power Christ has given is based on your faith in the "Power of Almighty God" when you pray in the "Name of Christ Jesus."
Mark 5:5 says, “And always, night and day, he was in the mountains, and in the tombs, crying, and cutting himself with stones.” This man was possessed so that evil emanated from him to the point of even causing harm to himself as his tormented spirit howled.
Mark 5:6 says, “But when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran and worshipped him,” The evil spirit knew who our Messiah Christ Jesus was from the Spiritual or First Earth Age. Father God said “let us make man in ‘our’ image, including Himself [Genesis – Chapter 1]” and Christ Jesus, being Father God in the Flesh, said “He that have seen Me have seen the Father [John – Chapter 12].” Knowing who Christ Jesus was, the evil spirit ran to and worshipped our Lord, knowing of His power and might.
Mark 5:7 says, “And cried with a loud voice, and said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, [thou] Son of the most high God? I adjure thee by God, that thou torment me not.” The evil spirit wanted Christ Jesus to leave him alone since it knew He had the power and might to send him back to where it belonged, death. This evil spirit is acknowledging Christ and begging Him to leave him be, possessing the man. Therefore, it was not the man who was speaking, rather the evil spirit that dwelt within him.
Mark 5:8 says, “For he said unto him, Come out of the man, [thou] unclean spirit.” Christ Jesus is our “King” and when He speaks, commands, as He did with this evil spirit, there are no choices.
Mark 5:9 says, “And he asked him, What [is] thy name? And he answered, saying, My name [is] Legion: for we are many.” “Legion” means “a body of soldiers whose number averages out to be about 6,000 [the number for satan] soldiers.” The number for satan is “666” and he is cast to this earth with all of his evil deception at the “Sixth Trumpet, Seal and Vial.”
Mark 5:10 says, “And he besought him much that he would not send them away out of the country.” In order for an evil spirit to exist, it must have a body to live in. The flesh body is their home. Therefore, they were begging Christ to let them be since they were being returned from whence they came; where they belonged.
Mark 5:11 says, “Now there was there nigh unto the mountains a great herd of swine feeding.” “Swine” which is a “a pig, a hog”, is the lowest form of carnal flesh that you are not to partake of as is taught in Leviticus – Chapter 11 and Deuteronomy – Chapter 14.
Mark 5:12 says, “And all the devils besought him, saying, Send us into the swine, that we may enter into them.” The evil spirits not caring where they resided, wanted to be sent into the lowest of carnal flesh in existence because they did not want to be sent back to the abyss.
Mark 5:13 says, “And forthwith Jesus gave them leave. And the unclean spirits went out, and entered into the swine: and the herd ran violently down a steep place into the sea, (they were about two thousand;) and were choked in the sea.” The swine as filthy as they are killed themselves rather than to be possessed with evil spirits. The evil spirits may not have been particular where they resided, however the swine were since they were not welcomed to live within them. Therefore, once the swine died, the evil spirits would leave them and look for flesh bodies to reside in. Christ Jesus did not send them back because He knew the swine would kill themselves, the evil spirits would search for new bodies and if mankind had the Holy Spirit within them, those evil spirits should not be able to find residence since our Lord has given us power over all of our enemies as is taught in Luke – Chapter 10.
Mark 5:14 says, “And they that fed the swine fled, and told [it] in the city, and in the country. And they went out to see what it was that was done.” You can be sure those who owned the swine were not happy since two thousand of their herd was dead. That is a whole lot of pork chop sandwiches washed away. All of a sudden here you have concern since while the man was tormented; it truly did not bother anyone else until there was a loss of wages and profit because of him. This surely does not demonstrate the love Christ Jesus has for all of His children as He is preparing to be sacrificed on that cross at Calvary for our sins.
Mark 5:15 says, “And they come to Jesus, and see him that was possessed with the devil, and had the legion, sitting, and clothed, and in his right mind: and they were afraid.” These people did not have a problem or care about this man who was possessed by evil spirits, howling and hurting himself as he resided amongst the dead bodies. Question what kind of minds would have seen or come to know of this miracle of our Lord wherein this man who had been possessed was now cleansed, having his right mind, clothed, looking good, having a peaceful spirit within himself, sitting with our Lord Jesus Christ, and the people are fearful. The greater fear you can rest assured is the fact that their pork chop franchise was just wiped off the books.
Mark 5:16 says, “And they that saw [it] told them how it befell to him that was possessed with the devil, and [also] concerning the swine.” Those who witnessed this miracle of Christ Jesus told how the evil spirits worshipped and begged our Lord to leave them be, finally asking Christ to send them into the pigs, and watching them rush to their deaths. This was a pretty good financial lost. As we live today, pulpit gurus will keep their congregations entertained, void of Father’s Truths, since wisdom of the Word of Almighty God would surely deplete their tides and offerings.
Mark 5:17 says, “And they began to pray him to depart out of their coasts.” They were praying Christ right up out of there. They did not care about the miracle, that the man they could not even bind was cleansed, they cared that they had lost a herd. They did not have a mind or heart to bless Father God and take with understanding the teachings of Christ Jesus because those seeds of truth are dormant within their minds. They live, as so many do in this generation we now live in, for that which they can attain carnally, for their flesh joy, not for their spiritual joy.
Mark 5:18 says, “And when he was come into the ship, he that had been possessed with the devil prayed him that he might be with him.” The man cleansed, loving our Lord so very grateful for the healing, wanted to be with our Lord and not with those who wanted Christ to depart from their midst. Father is a "Mighty God" and when you have His Spirit within you, there is joy, peace and Rest, who is Christ Jesus.
Mark 5:19 says, “Howbeit Jesus suffered him not, but saith unto him, Go home to thy friends, and tell them how great things the Lord hath done for thee, and hath had compassion on thee.” Christ Jesus commanded this one who had previously lived among the dead, possessed with evil spirits, now healed, to stay where he is and teach those who have no eyes to see or ears to hear. This man is now a seed planter of the truth of Father God’s Word since all things are possible through Christ Jesus and all the people there knew what this man previously was and had witnessed the miracle of his healing. There is no greater witness for Father God then one who has received a healing, a blessing; being touched by the Holy Spirit.
Mark 5:20 says, “And he departed, and began to publish in Decapolis how great things Jesus had done for him: and all [men] did marvel.” “Decapolis” means “ten {ten/testimony, law and responsibility} cities.” This man taught of the glory of Father God and His Beloved Son Christ Jesus. He taught of the power and might of our LORD and how He will use whomever He so chooses to do and be a part of His mighty plan. The people knew from whence this man came and seeing him rejuvenated, they most certainly were in awe. This man once feared, possessed of demons, is now a faithful follower of Christ Jesus, spreading the gospel of our Father God Almighty.
Mark 5:21 says, “And when Jesus was passed over again by ship unto the other side, much people gathered unto him: and he was nigh unto the sea.” Everywhere Christ Jesus went there were many people ready to receive Him, wanting to hear teachings never taught before. As it was, so it is today as people are starving to hear the truth of Father’s Word and pulpit gurus throughout the whole earth play church and their congregations accept their theatrics, not accepting seeds of truth planted because most are too lazy to study for themselves. Truth convicts and brings about a conscious awareness of Father God wherein you are responsible and held accountable when you fail to give our LORD all praise and glory, loving Him with a pure heart and living a life dedicated to true christianity, who is our Living Word, Christ Jesus.
Mark 5:22 says, “And, behold, there cometh one of the rulers of the synagogue, Jairus by name; and when he saw him, he fell at his feet,” “Jarius” means “whom God enlightens.” This one Jarius fell at the feet of Christ Jesus because of love and faith, knowing that our Lord was endowed by our Heavenly Father, understanding His power and might.
Mark 5:23 says, “And besought him greatly, saying, My little daughter lieth at the point of death: [I pray thee], come and lay thy hands on her, that she may be healed; and she shall live.” This ruler of the synagogue, Jarius, had no doubt that his daughter just being in the presence of Christ Jesus would be healed.
Mark 5:24 says, “And [Jesus] went with him; and much people followed him, and thronged him.” All the people knew of the marvelous works of Christ Jesus as He healed the sick and possessed and taught the truth of Father’s Word.
Mark 5:25 says, “And a certain woman, which had an issue of blood twelve years,” “Twelve” means “governmental perfection by Divine appointment.” Christ Jesus was twelve years old when He entered into the temple and taught [Luke - Chapter 2]. Our Lord said as He sacrificed Himself on that cross for all of humankind that at His request His Father would send twelve legions of angels if He so desired. Look up the number twelve and see the marvelous works associated with this number. There were twelve disciples/apostles, twelve tribes, twelve stones in the breastplate of the High Priest and the woman in the "Book of Revelation" had a crown of twelve stars, as well as the Tree of Life which bares twelve manners of fruit revealed in that same "Book."
Mark 5:26 says, “And had suffered many things of many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and was nothing bettered, but rather grew worse,” There was no physician who could cure her and she had spent all the money she had over these many years and there was no healing. The physicians took her money yet they did nothing to help her and each day she grew sicker. Most of the people of this world are as this woman, spiritually sick and their pulpits gurus, led by the kenites, take their money, provide them no spiritual understanding for what they pay and the congregation’s just get sicker by the day as they fall further and further away from Father God Almighty.
Mark 5:27 says, “When she had heard of Jesus, came in the press behind, and touched his garment.” Mark 5:28 says, “For she said, If I may touch but his clothes, I shall be whole.” This woman had faith so strong in our Lord Jesus Christ that she knew, from all the miracles our Lord had blessed His children with; she needed only to touch Him to be made whole. It is impossible to serve Father God or receive His blessings if you do not have pure faith that is a marriage to your works as taught by our Lord Jesus Christ, knowing and believing the love and compassion our Father has for all of His children who love and believe in Him.
Mark 5:29 says, “And straightway the fountain of her blood was dried up; and she felt in [her] body that she was healed of that plague.” “Felt” means “to learn to know, come to know, get a knowledge of perceive, feel.” This woman could feel; she knew within her spiritual self that she had been healed by only He who had the power and the might, Christ Jesus.
Mark 5:30 says, “And Jesus, immediately knowing in himself that virtue had gone out of him, turned him about in the press, and said, Who touched my clothes?” “Virtue” means “inherent power, power residing by virtue of its nature.” Christ Jesus felt that faith of the woman who had been healed when she reached out and touched Him.
Mark 5:31 says, “And his disciples said unto him, Thou seest the multitude thronging thee, and sayest thou, Who touched me?” Crowds of people were all around Christ Jesus and the disciples and they had no clue as to who it was that touched our Lord Jesus Christ. You could say they were flabbergasted at the question Christ Jesus asked under the circumstances.
Mark 5:32 says, “And he looked round about to see her that had done this thing.” Our Lord knew exactly who it was that had touched Him, just as He knew of her illness. Father God knows everything about each and every one of His children. There are no secrets; there are no undisclosed things we can do since Father knows all and sees all.
Mark 5:33 says, “But the woman fearing and trembling, knowing what was done in her, came and fell down before him, and told him all the truth.” The woman fell at the feet of our Lord Jesus Christ and confessed that she had touched Him and was giving our Lord all praise and glory because she was healed. Imagine how happy our Father God is when His children, according to their faith, receive that spiritual healing only He can provide and come to the knowledge of His Truths, becoming a part of the many-membered Body of Christ Jesus.
Mark 5:34 says, “And he said unto her, Daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole; go in peace, and be whole of thy plague.” “Faith” means “the conviction that God exists and is the creator and ruler of all things, the provider and bestower of eternal salvation through Christ our Messiah, through whom we obtain eternal salvation in the kingdom of God.” Hebrews – Chapter 1 teaches of the faith of Father God’s very elect and what He continues to expect from His election as we now live. How one can live in this world today without faith in “YAHOVAH, Father God Almighty and Yeshua, Christ Jesus” is a marvel to me. Faith comes from within and is takes root through studying the very Word of Father God because your spiritual eyes and ears open to the pure love of our LORD. Father loves all of His children so much that He took the flesh through Christ Jesus to sacrifice Himself on that cross at Calvary, renting that veil from top to bottom, that all may come before His Throne, declaring belief in Christ Jesus and seeking forgiveness for sins in the blessed name of our Lord. The Holy Spirit brings that spiritual peace when you love, know and understand through faith the power and might of our “Father God Almighty, who is Faithful and True” and dedicate yourself to understanding His Truths so you are a part of our LORD’S plan that shall bring about the end of this Flesh or Second Earth Age.
Mark 5:35 says, “While he yet spake, there came from the ruler of the synagogue's [house certain] which said, Thy daughter is dead: why troublest thou the Master any further?” The family of Jarius came to tell him there was no need to bother Christ Jesus regarding his daughter since she had passed away. Absent from the body is present with our LORD.
Mark 5:36 says, “As soon as Jesus heard the word that was spoken, he saith unto the ruler of the synagogue, Be not afraid, only believe.” The words Christ Jesus spoke, “Be not afraid, only believe” is what separates children of the “Light who is our Lord” from the darkness that is of satan. You either believe in our Lord or you do not. This is not a game of chance. Belief is what sustains you while walking in the flesh and that faith comes from studying the very “Word of Father God”, knowing through Christ Jesus, that your eyes will open and your ears will hear by the blessing of the Holy Spirit when you seek understanding only our LORD can give.
Mark 5:37 says, “And he suffered no man to follow him, save Peter, and James, and John the brother of James.” Christ Jesus is taking these three with him because there was no doubt of their faith. When you are seeking spiritual guidance, a healing, understanding or blessings, be sure that you are in the midst of those who have complete love, faith and trust in Father God. It will be these same three disciples Christ Jesus will take with Him to the high mountain where He is transfigured [Matthew – Chapter 17].
Mark 5:38 says, “And he cometh to the house of the ruler of the synagogue, and seeth the tumult, and them that wept and wailed greatly.” This was more of an uproar for the public than pure grief for the daughter they said was deceased.
Mark 5:39 says, “And when he was come in, he saith unto them, Why make ye this ado, and weep? the damsel is not dead, but sleepeth.” This is our Lord Jesus Christ speaking who is Father God Almighty Himself personified in the flesh.
Mark 5:40 says, “And they laughed him to scorn. But when he had put them all out, he taketh the father and the mother of the damsel, and them that were with him, and entereth in where the damsel was lying.” You can see how grieved they were as those tears quickly turned to ignorant laughter and you see what our Lord did. He put all the fakers out of the house of Jarius. That is what you do with your play-acting pulpit gurus, put them out of your spiritual life because they are fakers being paid to fool their congregations. Christ Jesus entered the house with those who had faith, “five {grace, God’s mercy, unmerited favor}” in number {the father, mother, Peter, James, John}, and wherever grace and mercy is, surely Christ Jesus is there. Also never forget once again that absent from the body is present with our LORD.
Mark 5:41 says, “And he took the damsel by the hand, and said unto her, Talitha cumi; which is, being interpreted, Damsel, I say unto thee, arise.” Christ Jesus spoke the language the daughter understood for the land in which she lived which is Aramaic, the language of captivity.
Mark 5:42 says, “And straightway the damsel arose, and walked; for she was [of the age] of twelve years. And they were astonished with a great astonishment.” Those who played grief and those truly grieved were amazed because our Lord has shown again the power of His might. This child of twelve years of age, as the woman with the issue of twelve years, by faith lives and was healed because He who has the power to give life and take it away was with them. For the woman and this child, it was faith that made them whole. Father God is teaching us that it is He and He alone who has the power to bestow eternal life on all those who have the faith to love and trust Him as we walk in this flesh, standing and confronting the casting of satan to this earth as the first/false christ according to His will, abiding in the Millennial Kingdom with an immortal soul, and rejoicing in Father's great love through all of eternity.
Mark 5:43 says, “And he charged them straitly that no man should know it; and commanded that something should be given her to eat.” “Straitly” means “firmly.” Luke taught this in Luke 8:55 which says, “And her spirit came again, and she arose straightway: and he commanded to give her meat.” Christ Jesus is not speaking about food to sustain the flesh, He is speaking about the meat, that strong meat which is the teaching of what “thus saith our LORD” which is that spiritual food {truth} that nourishes your soul to everlasting life. Once you have accepted Christ Jesus as Savior, it is time to grow away from that milk bottle of the salvation message and grow up and be a part of the Perfect Plan of Father God. It is time to study and meditate on the strong meat of Father’s Word wherein you become as one of the very elect and our LORD can use you according to His good will. Hebrews 5:12 – 14 says, “For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which [be] the first principles of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat.” “For every one that useth milk [is] unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe.” “But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, [even] those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.” This knowledge keeps you from being bound by satan since our Lord has given those with eyes to see and ears to hear power over all enemies, including slew-footed satan, when you have the “Seal of Truth within your mind which is the Word of Father God Almighty Himself, Faithful and True.” There is a great deception soon to be upon this earth and if you are not versed within the Word of Father God, satan is going to make you his whore {spiritually speaking}. Time is a prime factor of Father’s Word and just as Christ Jesus commanded those who witnessed the miracle of this child to keep their mouths closed since it was not yet time for the people to know our Lord would be sacrificed on that cross at Calvary, “now it is time” for all to know that our Lord is soon to return to this earth as “King of kings and Lord of lords” and the commandment is for all to understand the season of His return.
Mark 5:1 says, “And they came over unto the other side of the sea, into the country of the Gadarenes.” “Gadarenes” means “reward at the end.”
Mark 5:2 says, “And when he was come out of the ship, immediately there met him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit,” This is a man possessed by satan's spirit and he was residing where those who had passed away were laid out. “Tombs” means “any visible object for preserving or recalling the memory of any person or thing deceased.”
Mark 5:3 says, “Who had [his] dwelling among the tombs; and no man could bind him, no, not with chains:” This man was at the place of the dead [satan is death], the burial place, and he was free to roam since there is nothing earthly that can bound satan himself, however it was his spirit that was within this man. Only Father God can bound satan as he and the fallen angels are at this time chained in Heaven by authority of our Father, Michael the archangel seeing to it they remain in chains until Revelation 12:7 - 9 comes to pass. Christ Jesus sent satan to that bondage, Matthew 4:10 saying, "Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve." It is the spirit of satan that roams this earth seeking to house his evil spirit in the spirit of any person who will allow him to abode within them. After satan is cast to this earth to perpetrate the greatest deception ever to be known to mankind, he will be bound once again during the Millennial Kingdom teaching {one thousand years} as he taught in Revelation 20:1 - 3.
Mark 5:4 says, “Because that he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been plucked asunder by him, and the fetters broken in pieces: neither could any [man] tame him.” There is no earthly thing or person that can chain or bind satan, however if your spirit is possessed by his evil spirit, Christ Jesus can free you from this evil. Our Lord taught in Luke 10:19, "Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you." This power Christ has given is based on your faith in the "Power of Almighty God" when you pray in the "Name of Christ Jesus."
Mark 5:5 says, “And always, night and day, he was in the mountains, and in the tombs, crying, and cutting himself with stones.” This man was possessed so that evil emanated from him to the point of even causing harm to himself as his tormented spirit howled.
Mark 5:6 says, “But when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran and worshipped him,” The evil spirit knew who our Messiah Christ Jesus was from the Spiritual or First Earth Age. Father God said “let us make man in ‘our’ image, including Himself [Genesis – Chapter 1]” and Christ Jesus, being Father God in the Flesh, said “He that have seen Me have seen the Father [John – Chapter 12].” Knowing who Christ Jesus was, the evil spirit ran to and worshipped our Lord, knowing of His power and might.
Mark 5:7 says, “And cried with a loud voice, and said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, [thou] Son of the most high God? I adjure thee by God, that thou torment me not.” The evil spirit wanted Christ Jesus to leave him alone since it knew He had the power and might to send him back to where it belonged, death. This evil spirit is acknowledging Christ and begging Him to leave him be, possessing the man. Therefore, it was not the man who was speaking, rather the evil spirit that dwelt within him.
Mark 5:8 says, “For he said unto him, Come out of the man, [thou] unclean spirit.” Christ Jesus is our “King” and when He speaks, commands, as He did with this evil spirit, there are no choices.
Mark 5:9 says, “And he asked him, What [is] thy name? And he answered, saying, My name [is] Legion: for we are many.” “Legion” means “a body of soldiers whose number averages out to be about 6,000 [the number for satan] soldiers.” The number for satan is “666” and he is cast to this earth with all of his evil deception at the “Sixth Trumpet, Seal and Vial.”
Mark 5:10 says, “And he besought him much that he would not send them away out of the country.” In order for an evil spirit to exist, it must have a body to live in. The flesh body is their home. Therefore, they were begging Christ to let them be since they were being returned from whence they came; where they belonged.
Mark 5:11 says, “Now there was there nigh unto the mountains a great herd of swine feeding.” “Swine” which is a “a pig, a hog”, is the lowest form of carnal flesh that you are not to partake of as is taught in Leviticus – Chapter 11 and Deuteronomy – Chapter 14.
Mark 5:12 says, “And all the devils besought him, saying, Send us into the swine, that we may enter into them.” The evil spirits not caring where they resided, wanted to be sent into the lowest of carnal flesh in existence because they did not want to be sent back to the abyss.
Mark 5:13 says, “And forthwith Jesus gave them leave. And the unclean spirits went out, and entered into the swine: and the herd ran violently down a steep place into the sea, (they were about two thousand;) and were choked in the sea.” The swine as filthy as they are killed themselves rather than to be possessed with evil spirits. The evil spirits may not have been particular where they resided, however the swine were since they were not welcomed to live within them. Therefore, once the swine died, the evil spirits would leave them and look for flesh bodies to reside in. Christ Jesus did not send them back because He knew the swine would kill themselves, the evil spirits would search for new bodies and if mankind had the Holy Spirit within them, those evil spirits should not be able to find residence since our Lord has given us power over all of our enemies as is taught in Luke – Chapter 10.
Mark 5:14 says, “And they that fed the swine fled, and told [it] in the city, and in the country. And they went out to see what it was that was done.” You can be sure those who owned the swine were not happy since two thousand of their herd was dead. That is a whole lot of pork chop sandwiches washed away. All of a sudden here you have concern since while the man was tormented; it truly did not bother anyone else until there was a loss of wages and profit because of him. This surely does not demonstrate the love Christ Jesus has for all of His children as He is preparing to be sacrificed on that cross at Calvary for our sins.
Mark 5:15 says, “And they come to Jesus, and see him that was possessed with the devil, and had the legion, sitting, and clothed, and in his right mind: and they were afraid.” These people did not have a problem or care about this man who was possessed by evil spirits, howling and hurting himself as he resided amongst the dead bodies. Question what kind of minds would have seen or come to know of this miracle of our Lord wherein this man who had been possessed was now cleansed, having his right mind, clothed, looking good, having a peaceful spirit within himself, sitting with our Lord Jesus Christ, and the people are fearful. The greater fear you can rest assured is the fact that their pork chop franchise was just wiped off the books.
Mark 5:16 says, “And they that saw [it] told them how it befell to him that was possessed with the devil, and [also] concerning the swine.” Those who witnessed this miracle of Christ Jesus told how the evil spirits worshipped and begged our Lord to leave them be, finally asking Christ to send them into the pigs, and watching them rush to their deaths. This was a pretty good financial lost. As we live today, pulpit gurus will keep their congregations entertained, void of Father’s Truths, since wisdom of the Word of Almighty God would surely deplete their tides and offerings.
Mark 5:17 says, “And they began to pray him to depart out of their coasts.” They were praying Christ right up out of there. They did not care about the miracle, that the man they could not even bind was cleansed, they cared that they had lost a herd. They did not have a mind or heart to bless Father God and take with understanding the teachings of Christ Jesus because those seeds of truth are dormant within their minds. They live, as so many do in this generation we now live in, for that which they can attain carnally, for their flesh joy, not for their spiritual joy.
Mark 5:18 says, “And when he was come into the ship, he that had been possessed with the devil prayed him that he might be with him.” The man cleansed, loving our Lord so very grateful for the healing, wanted to be with our Lord and not with those who wanted Christ to depart from their midst. Father is a "Mighty God" and when you have His Spirit within you, there is joy, peace and Rest, who is Christ Jesus.
Mark 5:19 says, “Howbeit Jesus suffered him not, but saith unto him, Go home to thy friends, and tell them how great things the Lord hath done for thee, and hath had compassion on thee.” Christ Jesus commanded this one who had previously lived among the dead, possessed with evil spirits, now healed, to stay where he is and teach those who have no eyes to see or ears to hear. This man is now a seed planter of the truth of Father God’s Word since all things are possible through Christ Jesus and all the people there knew what this man previously was and had witnessed the miracle of his healing. There is no greater witness for Father God then one who has received a healing, a blessing; being touched by the Holy Spirit.
Mark 5:20 says, “And he departed, and began to publish in Decapolis how great things Jesus had done for him: and all [men] did marvel.” “Decapolis” means “ten {ten/testimony, law and responsibility} cities.” This man taught of the glory of Father God and His Beloved Son Christ Jesus. He taught of the power and might of our LORD and how He will use whomever He so chooses to do and be a part of His mighty plan. The people knew from whence this man came and seeing him rejuvenated, they most certainly were in awe. This man once feared, possessed of demons, is now a faithful follower of Christ Jesus, spreading the gospel of our Father God Almighty.
Mark 5:21 says, “And when Jesus was passed over again by ship unto the other side, much people gathered unto him: and he was nigh unto the sea.” Everywhere Christ Jesus went there were many people ready to receive Him, wanting to hear teachings never taught before. As it was, so it is today as people are starving to hear the truth of Father’s Word and pulpit gurus throughout the whole earth play church and their congregations accept their theatrics, not accepting seeds of truth planted because most are too lazy to study for themselves. Truth convicts and brings about a conscious awareness of Father God wherein you are responsible and held accountable when you fail to give our LORD all praise and glory, loving Him with a pure heart and living a life dedicated to true christianity, who is our Living Word, Christ Jesus.
Mark 5:22 says, “And, behold, there cometh one of the rulers of the synagogue, Jairus by name; and when he saw him, he fell at his feet,” “Jarius” means “whom God enlightens.” This one Jarius fell at the feet of Christ Jesus because of love and faith, knowing that our Lord was endowed by our Heavenly Father, understanding His power and might.
Mark 5:23 says, “And besought him greatly, saying, My little daughter lieth at the point of death: [I pray thee], come and lay thy hands on her, that she may be healed; and she shall live.” This ruler of the synagogue, Jarius, had no doubt that his daughter just being in the presence of Christ Jesus would be healed.
Mark 5:24 says, “And [Jesus] went with him; and much people followed him, and thronged him.” All the people knew of the marvelous works of Christ Jesus as He healed the sick and possessed and taught the truth of Father’s Word.
Mark 5:25 says, “And a certain woman, which had an issue of blood twelve years,” “Twelve” means “governmental perfection by Divine appointment.” Christ Jesus was twelve years old when He entered into the temple and taught [Luke - Chapter 2]. Our Lord said as He sacrificed Himself on that cross for all of humankind that at His request His Father would send twelve legions of angels if He so desired. Look up the number twelve and see the marvelous works associated with this number. There were twelve disciples/apostles, twelve tribes, twelve stones in the breastplate of the High Priest and the woman in the "Book of Revelation" had a crown of twelve stars, as well as the Tree of Life which bares twelve manners of fruit revealed in that same "Book."
Mark 5:26 says, “And had suffered many things of many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and was nothing bettered, but rather grew worse,” There was no physician who could cure her and she had spent all the money she had over these many years and there was no healing. The physicians took her money yet they did nothing to help her and each day she grew sicker. Most of the people of this world are as this woman, spiritually sick and their pulpits gurus, led by the kenites, take their money, provide them no spiritual understanding for what they pay and the congregation’s just get sicker by the day as they fall further and further away from Father God Almighty.
Mark 5:27 says, “When she had heard of Jesus, came in the press behind, and touched his garment.” Mark 5:28 says, “For she said, If I may touch but his clothes, I shall be whole.” This woman had faith so strong in our Lord Jesus Christ that she knew, from all the miracles our Lord had blessed His children with; she needed only to touch Him to be made whole. It is impossible to serve Father God or receive His blessings if you do not have pure faith that is a marriage to your works as taught by our Lord Jesus Christ, knowing and believing the love and compassion our Father has for all of His children who love and believe in Him.
Mark 5:29 says, “And straightway the fountain of her blood was dried up; and she felt in [her] body that she was healed of that plague.” “Felt” means “to learn to know, come to know, get a knowledge of perceive, feel.” This woman could feel; she knew within her spiritual self that she had been healed by only He who had the power and the might, Christ Jesus.
Mark 5:30 says, “And Jesus, immediately knowing in himself that virtue had gone out of him, turned him about in the press, and said, Who touched my clothes?” “Virtue” means “inherent power, power residing by virtue of its nature.” Christ Jesus felt that faith of the woman who had been healed when she reached out and touched Him.
Mark 5:31 says, “And his disciples said unto him, Thou seest the multitude thronging thee, and sayest thou, Who touched me?” Crowds of people were all around Christ Jesus and the disciples and they had no clue as to who it was that touched our Lord Jesus Christ. You could say they were flabbergasted at the question Christ Jesus asked under the circumstances.
Mark 5:32 says, “And he looked round about to see her that had done this thing.” Our Lord knew exactly who it was that had touched Him, just as He knew of her illness. Father God knows everything about each and every one of His children. There are no secrets; there are no undisclosed things we can do since Father knows all and sees all.
Mark 5:33 says, “But the woman fearing and trembling, knowing what was done in her, came and fell down before him, and told him all the truth.” The woman fell at the feet of our Lord Jesus Christ and confessed that she had touched Him and was giving our Lord all praise and glory because she was healed. Imagine how happy our Father God is when His children, according to their faith, receive that spiritual healing only He can provide and come to the knowledge of His Truths, becoming a part of the many-membered Body of Christ Jesus.
Mark 5:34 says, “And he said unto her, Daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole; go in peace, and be whole of thy plague.” “Faith” means “the conviction that God exists and is the creator and ruler of all things, the provider and bestower of eternal salvation through Christ our Messiah, through whom we obtain eternal salvation in the kingdom of God.” Hebrews – Chapter 1 teaches of the faith of Father God’s very elect and what He continues to expect from His election as we now live. How one can live in this world today without faith in “YAHOVAH, Father God Almighty and Yeshua, Christ Jesus” is a marvel to me. Faith comes from within and is takes root through studying the very Word of Father God because your spiritual eyes and ears open to the pure love of our LORD. Father loves all of His children so much that He took the flesh through Christ Jesus to sacrifice Himself on that cross at Calvary, renting that veil from top to bottom, that all may come before His Throne, declaring belief in Christ Jesus and seeking forgiveness for sins in the blessed name of our Lord. The Holy Spirit brings that spiritual peace when you love, know and understand through faith the power and might of our “Father God Almighty, who is Faithful and True” and dedicate yourself to understanding His Truths so you are a part of our LORD’S plan that shall bring about the end of this Flesh or Second Earth Age.
Mark 5:35 says, “While he yet spake, there came from the ruler of the synagogue's [house certain] which said, Thy daughter is dead: why troublest thou the Master any further?” The family of Jarius came to tell him there was no need to bother Christ Jesus regarding his daughter since she had passed away. Absent from the body is present with our LORD.
Mark 5:36 says, “As soon as Jesus heard the word that was spoken, he saith unto the ruler of the synagogue, Be not afraid, only believe.” The words Christ Jesus spoke, “Be not afraid, only believe” is what separates children of the “Light who is our Lord” from the darkness that is of satan. You either believe in our Lord or you do not. This is not a game of chance. Belief is what sustains you while walking in the flesh and that faith comes from studying the very “Word of Father God”, knowing through Christ Jesus, that your eyes will open and your ears will hear by the blessing of the Holy Spirit when you seek understanding only our LORD can give.
Mark 5:37 says, “And he suffered no man to follow him, save Peter, and James, and John the brother of James.” Christ Jesus is taking these three with him because there was no doubt of their faith. When you are seeking spiritual guidance, a healing, understanding or blessings, be sure that you are in the midst of those who have complete love, faith and trust in Father God. It will be these same three disciples Christ Jesus will take with Him to the high mountain where He is transfigured [Matthew – Chapter 17].
Mark 5:38 says, “And he cometh to the house of the ruler of the synagogue, and seeth the tumult, and them that wept and wailed greatly.” This was more of an uproar for the public than pure grief for the daughter they said was deceased.
Mark 5:39 says, “And when he was come in, he saith unto them, Why make ye this ado, and weep? the damsel is not dead, but sleepeth.” This is our Lord Jesus Christ speaking who is Father God Almighty Himself personified in the flesh.
Mark 5:40 says, “And they laughed him to scorn. But when he had put them all out, he taketh the father and the mother of the damsel, and them that were with him, and entereth in where the damsel was lying.” You can see how grieved they were as those tears quickly turned to ignorant laughter and you see what our Lord did. He put all the fakers out of the house of Jarius. That is what you do with your play-acting pulpit gurus, put them out of your spiritual life because they are fakers being paid to fool their congregations. Christ Jesus entered the house with those who had faith, “five {grace, God’s mercy, unmerited favor}” in number {the father, mother, Peter, James, John}, and wherever grace and mercy is, surely Christ Jesus is there. Also never forget once again that absent from the body is present with our LORD.
Mark 5:41 says, “And he took the damsel by the hand, and said unto her, Talitha cumi; which is, being interpreted, Damsel, I say unto thee, arise.” Christ Jesus spoke the language the daughter understood for the land in which she lived which is Aramaic, the language of captivity.
Mark 5:42 says, “And straightway the damsel arose, and walked; for she was [of the age] of twelve years. And they were astonished with a great astonishment.” Those who played grief and those truly grieved were amazed because our Lord has shown again the power of His might. This child of twelve years of age, as the woman with the issue of twelve years, by faith lives and was healed because He who has the power to give life and take it away was with them. For the woman and this child, it was faith that made them whole. Father God is teaching us that it is He and He alone who has the power to bestow eternal life on all those who have the faith to love and trust Him as we walk in this flesh, standing and confronting the casting of satan to this earth as the first/false christ according to His will, abiding in the Millennial Kingdom with an immortal soul, and rejoicing in Father's great love through all of eternity.
Mark 5:43 says, “And he charged them straitly that no man should know it; and commanded that something should be given her to eat.” “Straitly” means “firmly.” Luke taught this in Luke 8:55 which says, “And her spirit came again, and she arose straightway: and he commanded to give her meat.” Christ Jesus is not speaking about food to sustain the flesh, He is speaking about the meat, that strong meat which is the teaching of what “thus saith our LORD” which is that spiritual food {truth} that nourishes your soul to everlasting life. Once you have accepted Christ Jesus as Savior, it is time to grow away from that milk bottle of the salvation message and grow up and be a part of the Perfect Plan of Father God. It is time to study and meditate on the strong meat of Father’s Word wherein you become as one of the very elect and our LORD can use you according to His good will. Hebrews 5:12 – 14 says, “For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which [be] the first principles of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat.” “For every one that useth milk [is] unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe.” “But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, [even] those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.” This knowledge keeps you from being bound by satan since our Lord has given those with eyes to see and ears to hear power over all enemies, including slew-footed satan, when you have the “Seal of Truth within your mind which is the Word of Father God Almighty Himself, Faithful and True.” There is a great deception soon to be upon this earth and if you are not versed within the Word of Father God, satan is going to make you his whore {spiritually speaking}. Time is a prime factor of Father’s Word and just as Christ Jesus commanded those who witnessed the miracle of this child to keep their mouths closed since it was not yet time for the people to know our Lord would be sacrificed on that cross at Calvary, “now it is time” for all to know that our Lord is soon to return to this earth as “King of kings and Lord of lords” and the commandment is for all to understand the season of His return.
