THE BOOK OF MARK

CHRIST JESUS IS OUR PASSOVER - OUR LIVING WORD

Mark – Chapter 10

Mark 10:1 says, “And he arose from thence, and cometh into the coasts of Judaea by the farther side of Jordan: and the people resort unto him again; and, as he was wont, he taught them again.” “Judaea” means “he shall be praised.” “Jordan” means “the descending one.” Our Lord’s travels are taking Him closer to Jerusalem. Our Lord being on a mission for His Father still always had time to teach the Precious Word of Father God to all with ears to hear and eyes to see. It is the duty of the very elect as we now live to study, share and plant seeds of truth, praying always that people will accept that same truth, return to our Father God and seek the increase of understanding only He can give when you seek, ask and knock, studying to feed your spiritual body every day.

Mark 10:2 says, “And the Pharisees came to him, and asked him, Is it lawful for a man to put away [his] wife? tempting him.” Here you have satan doing his evil through one of the hidden dynasties, religion, where the doctrines and traditions of men are very prevalent over Father’s Word. “Tempting him” means “to test one maliciously, craftily to put to the proof his feelings and judgments.” The religious community [kenites] asked Christ Jesus this question as a means of trying to find a reason to murder Him based on the responses of our Lord as a means to ridicule Him before the people. Pulpit gurus do this same manner of practice today when confronted by one of the very elect trying to keep face in the eyes of their Biblically illiterate congregations as they murder Father’s Word.

Mark 10:3 says, “And he answered and said unto them, What did Moses command you?” Christ Jesus asked them if they had ever bothered to study the Word of Father God and read Deuteronomy – Chapter 24 {Verse1}.

Mark 10:4 says, “And they said, Moses suffered to write a bill of divorcement, and to put [her] away.” Moses also stated the reason why a divorce would be the proper means of ending a relationship and that it should not be used as an abusive measure as often occurs since the two should not have married in the first place. This is why you should not be unequally yoked before consideration of marriage since the righteous cannot abide with the unrighteous [II Corinthians – Chapter 2].

Mark 10:5 says, “And Jesus answered and said unto them, For the hardness of your heart he wrote you this precept.” Father God always loving and caring for His children knew this was necessary because of the violence of men who would harm, even murder a woman. Father provided a way out for them.

Mark 10:6 says, “But from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female.” Father God created men and women to love and care for one another and to procreate since all souls must be born from above.

Mark 10:7 says, “For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and cleave to his wife;” When a marriage takes place, a man should leave the wings of his parents and be responsible for supporting and taking care of his wife {family}. “Cleave” means “to join one’s self closely, stick to like glue.” Spiritually speaking, the very elect {male/female} know that it is necessary when working in the field, which is the world, to spread the good gospel of our LORD, it is necessary to separate yourself from family members who are still lost in the world of sin -or- tamed to the doctrines and traditions of men within their religious walk. The very elect know they are the wife {male/female} of Christ Jesus and while loving their family, will not let them stand in the way of serving Father, preparing for the return of our "True Bridegroom who is Christ Jesus", readying themselves for the "marriage supper [Revelation - Chapter 19]." To understand the difference between the bride and wife of Christ Jesus, study Matthew 25:1 - 13. This is the "Parable of the Ten Virgins."

Mark 10:8 says, “And they twain shall be one flesh: so then they are no more twain, but one flesh.” Once a child is conceived between a man and a woman, you are as one flesh; the father and the mother married within the eyes of Father God Almighty. The child is a result of the two coming together as one.

Mark 10:9 says, “What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.” “Asunder” means “separate, divide.” All who marry should take it seriously, seeking the blessings of Father God and all others, inclusive of family members and friends, should not interfere unless called upon; there being a need. You also want to remember for every positive there is a negative. When satan steps in, there you have the negative which is men marrying men and women marrying women. As you can clearly see, this is not ordained of Father God since His Word clearly says “male and female.” Also, the purpose of Father having created male and females was for the purpose of procreation, since all souls have to be born from above. Two males or two females cannot produce a child. "Father God is Natural" and all things He created are natural as well.

Mark 10:10 says, “And in the house his disciples asked him again of the same [matter].” The disciples wanted to have a clear understanding of what Christ Jesus was teaching spiritually on this matter of divorce {adultery} since our Lord did not fully give the religious community seeking to murder Him the full essence of the spiritual teaching.

Mark 10:11 says, “And he saith unto them, Whosoever shall put away his wife, and marry another, committeth adultery against her.” Mark 10:12 says, “And if a woman shall put away her husband, and be married to another, she committeth adultery.” “Committeth adultery” means “to have unlawful intercourse with another’s wife – spiritually, one who is faithless toward God, ungodly.” Marriage is supposed to be a lifetime commitment between a man and a woman, meaning binding until death of one or the other. However, if the wife or husband commits adultery that contract is no longer binding. So it could be the man or the woman who is the adulteress, depending on who steps away from the commitment. Divorce is not a pretty picture and is not loved by Father God or His children. However, it is sometimes necessary since even our LORD divorced His wife Israel as is taught in Ezekiel – Chapter 16 because she committed adultery. Christ Jesus will take back His wife {very elect} and bride {the elect who recognized our True Christ before He appears/Second Advent} when He returns to this earth as “King of kings and Lord of lords.” Therefore, since our Father God divorced His wife for good cause “adultery” as you will read in Ezekiel, you know this is an acceptable act in Father's eyes. Christ Jesus gave of His Perfect Self on the cross at Calvary so our sins could be cleansed and forgiven. You know now “divorcing because of adultery” is most definitely not an unforgiveable sin. Adultery and divorce, as all sins, are forgiven through salvation and repentance from a true heart. So if your church limits what you are permitted to participate in within “their church” because you have committed adultery or are a divorcee, kick up the dust and remove yourself from that whorehouse {spiritually speaking} and seek through Father God a house of the very elect where truth is taught. Case in point, Father God is not in their church because He is a Divorcee as you will read in Ezekiel – Chapter 16. Study for yourself so you are not ignorant as to what “thus saith our LORD.” A good study on this very subject would be John – Chapter 4 {Verses 16 – 30} which teaches of the woman at the well who had been divorced five times. There is only one unforgiveable sin and that sin can only be committed by the very elect when satan is upon this earth as the first/false christ. Therefore, when you do sin and want to be cleansed of it, and you cannot fool Father God who knows all of your thoughts, go before His Throne in the Name of Christ Jesus and receive a healing. With that healing, strive to live according to the will of Father God doing the very best you can to walk righteously, knowing that flesh will sin naturally, that is why we have repentance and become a faithful servant.

Mark 10:13 says, “And they brought young children to him, that he should touch them: and [his] disciples rebuked those that brought [them].” Christ Jesus and the disciples have been dealing with the religious community and their questions trying to entrap our Lord, and having been a long day, the disciples were telling the people to take their children and go home. This is the weakness of the flesh speaking since the disciples were tired.

Mark 10:14 says, “But when Jesus saw [it], he was much displeased, and said unto them, Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God.” Christ Jesus is saying that in order to understand Father’s Word it is necessary to be as a little child, not having a mind filled with the doctrines and traditions of the religious community. It is necessary to have a heart of innocence as a child, receiving that which is taught because of love, faith and trust in our Lord which leads you spiritually to the Kingdom of Father God for all of Eternity.

Mark 10:15 says, “Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, he shall not enter therein.” It takes faith to believe in our Father God and the teachings of Christ Jesus and in order to receive these same truths, your mind has to be free from the ways of the world and you must meditate on a spiritual plateau. If your mind is polluted with the world’s teachings that are not from the “Holy Bible” then you are not innocent. It is truth that leads you to Christ Jesus wherein is our salvation and repentance before the Throne of Father God Almighty so you can become a new spirit as you seek understanding of what “thus saith our LORD.”

Mark 10:16 says, “And he took them up in his arms, put [his] hands upon them, and blessed them.” Christ Jesus dedicated these children to Almighty God so they may be under the veil of His protection. Parents today should have or bless their children in the Name of Christ Jesus before our Father God and it does not matter what age that child is. What is important is that they receive the spiritual blessings of Father God wherein they are led by the Holy Spirit.

Mark 10:17 says, “And when he was gone forth into the way, there came one running, and kneeled to him, and asked him, Good Master, what shall I do that I may inherit eternal life?” Christ Jesus has just taught that all of humankind must become as a little child to receive understanding of Father’s Word to be a part of the Kingdom of our LORD. Now this one, knowing who Christ Jesus is, is asking directly of our Lord what is necessary as we now live in the flesh to inherit eternal life.

Mark 10:18 says, “And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? [there is] none good but one, [that is], God.” Knowing that Christ Jesus is Father God in the Flesh is why our Lord Jesus Christ is our “Good Master.” When you have seen the Son, you have seen our Father.

Mark 10:19 says, “Thou knowest the commandments, Do not commit adultery, Do not kill, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Defraud not, Honour thy father and mother.” The “Ten Commandments” are taught of in Exodus – Chapter 20 and Deuteronomy – Chapter 5. Christ Jesus is teaching the law, the path into the “Kingdom of Heaven”, therefore when you hear pulpit gurus say the law was done away with through Christ Jesus, you can now tell them to go study the truth of Father’s Word with the innocence of a child, ridding themselves of the doctrines and traditions of men. Remember Christ Jesus said in Matthew 5:17 & 18, "Think not that I come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil." "For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled."

Mark 10:20 says, “And he answered and said unto him, Master, all these have I observed from my youth.” This one is saying that he has followed the commandments of Father God throughout his life.

Mark 10:21 says, “Then Jesus beholding him loved him, and said unto him, One thing thou lackest: go thy way, sell whatsoever thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, take up the cross, and follow me.” Christ Jesus loved this one because he apparently was trying to live according to the laws of Father God and had attained earthly wealth. Our Lord, the man being rich, has asked him to give up his worldly possessions to those who have needs and become one of His disciples wherein the true inheritance is received within the Kingdom of Father God as he becomes knowledgeable of truth and a servant of our Living God.

Mark 10:22 says, “And he was sad at that saying, and went away grieved: for he had great possessions.” This man was rich by whatever means he accomplished it and was not willing to give it up even for eternal life with our Father God. What this man did not realize is that Father God always takes care of His own and sees to their needs. Father God blesses those who bless Him and that is by studying His Word and planting seeds of truth wherever they may be heard; this manner of living demonstrating pure love for Father God because you have faith and trust Him.

Mark 10:23 says, “And Jesus looked round about, and saith unto his disciples, How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God!” If those who have plenty achieved their riches from ill-gotten gain, stealing from Father’s children and doing all manner of things that are against the Word of Father God, they have reason to be concerned.

Mark 10:24 says, “And the disciples were astonished at his words. But Jesus answereth again, and saith unto them, Children, how hard is it for them that trust in riches to enter into the kingdom of God!” Mark 10:25 says, “It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.” If you have achieved your riches from ill-gotten gain, defrauding Father’s children, you must give it back to those you stole it from and/or give it to the widows and the poor and follow Christ. When you are as the very elect of Father God your inheritance will be in Heaven as Father gives you your reward, the true inheritance wherein you a part of the Kingship of Father God. Your reward is to be a part of the priesthood of the zadok wherein you serve Father God Almighty as priests in the Heavenly Age. In order to go through that eye of a needle, as you unload the cargo the camel carries so the animal can get through that small needle door on its knees, you must likewise unload those same riches to enter into the Kingship of Father God.

Mark 10:26 says, “And they were astonished out of measure, saying among themselves, Who then can be saved?” The disciples, speaking amongst themselves are trying to understand what chance humankind has to be a part of the Kingship of Father God.

Mark 10:27 says, “And Jesus looking upon them saith, With men [it is] impossible, but not with God: for with God all things are possible.” While your pulpit guru can by no means save you, and the very elect can lead you to Christ Jesus wherein your salvation lies, “only” Father God Himself can save your very soul. It is necessary to accept Christ Jesus as Savior, loving Father God Almighty as you come before His Throne seeking forgiveness from your sins, and begin studying His Word so you are as the very elect, which means you have the Seal of Truth within your mind.

Mark 10:28 says, “Then Peter began to say unto him, Lo, we have left all, and have followed thee.” This is true since when Christ Jesus happened upon the twelve disciplines, our Lord simply stated for them to “follow Me”, and they did, leaving their family and all their earthly possessions.

Mark 10:29 says, “And Jesus answered and said, Verily I say unto you, There is no man that hath left house, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my sake, and the gospel's,” This means you are to love Father God before anyone or anything else within your life. When you forsake all else, which means love less, this shows pure love for Father God and His Beloved Son who will multiple all things within your life because of your love, faith, trust and obedience.

Mark 10:30 says, “But he shall receive an hundredfold now in this time, houses, and brethren, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and lands, with persecutions; and in the world to come eternal life.” When you follow Christ Jesus, what you have need of will replenish into more than you can imagine since there are many people and possessions within the family of our LORD. If that rich man who wanted to enter into the Kingship of Father God had given up his ill-gotten gain and followed Christ Jesus, what he had given up would have multiplied far greater. When you become as the very elect you are not leaving your family or possessions, you are adding to them as Father God blesses you to have relationships and share in the bounty of all those with the Seal of Truth within their minds.

Mark 10:31 says, “But many [that are] first shall be last; and the last first.” This is a Parable as taught by Christ Jesus in Matthew – Chapter 20. Those who began work early in the day in the vineyard and those who began work in the afternoon, as well as those who came in the last hour of the day all received the same wage. Spiritually this is teaching that Father knows His very elect from the First Earth Age and while some may come to truth early in their lives and others come to that same truth later in their lives, Father God will grant the same inheritance to both. Almighty God is fair and just with all of His children and does not show partiality. When satan is cast to this earth as the first/false christ and most of the world bows down and worships him in their ignorance, the very elect will not. While they are last as we now live in the flesh, they shall be first to enter into the Kingdom of Heaven, serving our Father God Almighty, being of the priesthood who are the zadok. They shall begin that journey gather together with Christ Jesus as He resigns over the Millennial Kingdom teaching as "King of kings and Lord of lords."

Mark 10:32 says, “And they were in the way going up to Jerusalem; and Jesus went before them: and they were amazed; and as they followed, they were afraid. And he took again the twelve, and began to tell them what things should happen unto him,” Christ Jesus continues to travel toward the city where our Lord will be crucified for the sins of mankind as our Perfect Sacrifice at the hands of the offspring of satan, the kenites. Just as Christ Jesus prepared His disciples for what was to come, they becoming weak in the flesh because of the impending crucifixion, wanting to protect our Lord, our Father’s Word prepares us for those events that shall consummate the end of this Second or Flesh Earth Age so we do not become weak or afraid in the flesh. If you study, there is no need to fear those things to come as Father has foretold us all things within His Word, which should keep you loving, trusting and faithful toward Almighty God that you may "stand" against satan and his entourage. For those who believe in the rapture of the churches, how is possible to "stand" for Father God if you have flown away to never-never land.

Mark 10:33 says, “[Saying], Behold, we go up to Jerusalem; and the Son of man shall be delivered unto the chief priests, and unto the scribes; and they shall condemn him to death, and shall deliver him to the Gentiles:” It is the so-called religious community [kenites] who condemns our Lord that He shall be put to death by the hands of the Romans [Gentiles]. These same religious people are in churches today as they condemn the very elect who teach the truth of Father’s Word. Just as in the time of Christ Jesus, some are kenites and the others are just Biblically illiterate fools, money their incentive to play-act as they keep their congregations in darkness which is of satan.

Mark 10:34 says, “And they shall mock him, and shall scourge him, and shall spit upon him, and shall kill him: and the third day he shall rise again.” With all they do to our Lord, He shall defeat death who is satan when He arises on that third day. Let us never forget that Christ Jesus is Father God Himself who was born from above. “Emmanuel” means “God with us.”

Mark 10:35 says, “And James and John, the sons of Zebedee, come unto him, saying, Master, we would that thou shouldest do for us whatsoever we shall desire.” It is better to let our Lord know that you want to be under the will of Father God who will do all things that are good for you, rather than to seek that our Lord should do what is best for you according to your own thoughts or desires.

Mark 10:36 says, “And he said unto them, What would ye that I should do for you?” Christ Jesus has just told His disciples of those events written of in Psalms – Chapter 22 becoming a reality, and with the response offered to our Lord; He wants to know just what it is the disciples wish for Him to do.

Mark 10:37 says, “They said unto him, Grant unto us that we may sit, one on thy right hand, and the other on thy left hand, in thy glory.” Essentially, they are asking Christ Jesus to share the Throne of Almighty God with them. It is Christ Jesus who sits at the right hand of His Father, our Almighty God, as we now live. Therefore, in order for one of these disciples to sit next to Christ Jesus that would mean Father God Almighty would not have His rightful place on the Throne. That is to say, they are asking for Father’s Seat. This is how satan became the son of perdition, wanting the very seat of Father God.

Mark 10:38 says, “But Jesus said unto them, Ye know not what ye ask: can ye drink of the cup that I drink of? and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with?” Of course they could not endure what our Lord Jesus Christ is about to as He drinks of the cup of the wrath of the kenites, sacrificed on that cross that humankind may receive forgiveness for sins before the Throne of Almighty God. Only "Christ Jesus is Perfect", no one else ever created is, therefore there is none who could “drink of the cup nor be baptized with the baptism as our Lord was and shall be.”

Mark 10:39 says, “And they said unto him, We can. And Jesus said unto them, Ye shall indeed drink of the cup that I drink of; and with the baptism that I am baptized withal shall ye be baptized:” While the disciples will not be murdered as our Lord Jesus Christ was, they all shall taste of death after our Lord is no longer with them [Acts – Chapter 2]. It shall be at the hands of the kenites as each of them are put to death, murdered, one by one, as they stand on the “Rock of our Foundation” and teach the truth of Father’s Word. However, remember that absent from the body is present with our Father God.

Mark 10:40 says, “But to sit on my right hand and on my left hand is not mine to give; but [it shall be given to them] for whom it is prepared.” Only the zadok, who are the very elect, shall be around the chambers of our LORD in the Eternal Age. The very elect were chosen before the foundation of this Flesh or Second Earth Age as is taught in Ephesians – Chapter 1. This is why Father God said in Ezekiel – Chapter 44 to give the zadok no allotment, because He, “YAHOVAH” is our inheritance and He alone sits on the Throne. The very elect earned this in the Spiritual or First Earth Age when satan rebelled and the very elect stood and never turned their backs on our Father God, just as they continue to serve Him as we now live and will stand against satan once more when he is cast to this earth as the first/false christ.

Mark 10:41 says, “And when the ten heard [it], they began to be much displeased with James and John.” While our Lord Jesus Christ was preparing Himself and the disciples for what is about to come upon Him, the crucifixion, the disciples are bickering amongst themselves and demonstrating jealousy. The weakness of the flesh is ever so prevalent if you are not careful and remember you are a servant in the service of our LORD. Thank our Father God for salvation and repentance. At a time when they should have been blessing our Lord for what He is about to do for all of humankind, they are concerned about which of them is the greatest and deserves a special place next to our Lord in Heaven. When you look at who is in the pulpit, all puffed up and just showing off with religious fanatics, you can rest assured that satan’s spirit is right there next to them, puffing up that ego that will surely cause them to be dismissed from the spirituality of Father God.

Mark 10:42 says, “But Jesus called them [to him], and saith unto them, Ye know that they which are accounted to rule over the Gentiles exercise lordship over them; and their great ones exercise authority upon them.” Christ Jesus is saying it is the heathen who demand authority that ordering allegiance from all considered lower than them because they are heathens, ruling with an iron fist so to speak.

Mark 10:43 says, “But so shall it not be among you: but whosoever will be great among you, shall be your minister:” Christ Jesus does not expect His very elect to be doing and saying things as the heathen do, such as who shall be the greatest in Heaven amongst the twelve of them. When you are of the very elect, you are a servant to Father’s Word as you "share" and teach the “Good Gospel” to all with eyes to see and ears to hear.

Mark 10:44 says, “And whosoever of you will be the chiefest, shall be servant of all.” Christ Jesus was “First {chiefest} and a Servant” for all of humankind as He gave of His life on that cross at Calvary.

Mark 10:45 says, “For even the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.” Christ Jesus paid the ultimate price that all may have salvation. When the pulpit gurus say salvation is free it shows their Biblical illiteracy since salvation was an ultimate price for our Lord Jesus Christ to pay before the crucifixion and as He was nailed to that cross. Hebrews – Chapter 2 teaches of Christ defeating death who is satan on that cross and our Father allowing it because of His great love for all of His children.

Mark 10:46 says, “And they came to Jericho: and as he went out of Jericho with his disciples and a great number of people, blind Bartimaeus, the son of Timaeus, sat by the highway side begging.” “Jericho” means “place of fragrance.” “Bartimaeus” means “son of the unclean.” “Timaeus” means “unclean, polluted.”

Mark 10:47 says, “And when he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to cry out, and say, Jesus, [thou] Son of David, have mercy on me.” This blind man knew, by the spirit of our LORD, who Christ Jesus was and asked by his faith that our Lord “grant him favor, a healing.”

Mark 10:48 says, “And many charged him that he should hold his peace: but he cried the more a great deal, [Thou] Son of David, have mercy on me.” Not only did this blind man know Christ Jesus was the Son of David, he also knew He was the “Anointed One, Emmanuel {God with us}.”

Mark 10:49 says, “And Jesus stood still, and commanded him to be called. And they call the blind man, saying unto him, Be of good comfort, rise; he calleth thee.” Christ Jesus heard this man, recognized his faith, and sent for him.

Mark 10:50 says, “And he, casting away his garment, rose, and came to Jesus.” The blind man threw that beggar’s robe from his body and made haste to our Lord spiritually, physically, mentally and emotionally because he knew the blessings that were about to be placed upon him. When you hear the pulpit gurus begging from their congregations you should immediately know they are spiritually blind to our Father’s Word. Get away from them and seek truth.

Mark 10:51 says, “And Jesus answered and said unto him, What wilt thou that I should do unto thee? The blind man said unto him, Lord, that I might receive my sight.” This man who was the son of an unclean, unworthy man, made no difference to our Lord Jesus Christ since this man was judged by his faith in our Lord. This man knew Christ Jesus could give Him sight and he blessed Father God because of that belief.

Mark 10:52 says, “And Jesus said unto him, Go thy way; thy faith hath made thee whole. And immediately he received his sight, and followed Jesus in the way.” This man was healed by his “faith” in our Lord Jesus Christ and from that moment on, followed our Lord, becoming a faithful servant. He did not run off and try to make up for lost time in the ways of the world, no, he straightway, immediately, followed our “Lord Jesus Christ who is our Living Word.” Faith is the answer and for the very elect, there may be times when your prayers are not answered immediately; however be not dismayed since our LORD may not do so if it will interfere with the work He has set forth for you. Knowing Father hears all prayers, it is necessary to have faith that whatsoever Almighty God sees fit for you is right; without question. Father God always knows what is best for His children.
