Hello, and thank you
for joining me today,
00:00:17.66\00:00:20.19
for His Words are
Life. I'm Kelly Mowrer,
00:00:20.22\00:00:23.25
and before we go to the
word of God, let's go to
00:00:23.28\00:00:26.04
the Author of
the word in prayer.
00:00:26.07\00:00:27.47
Oh, my heavenly Father, thank
you so very much that you have
00:00:27.50\00:00:33.27
not only given these words
to us today, you have brought us
00:00:33.30\00:00:37.19
safely here that we may enjoy
them together and be fed by
00:00:37.22\00:00:41.44
them and blessed by them,
and please send your Holy Spirit
00:00:41.47\00:00:44.43
to guide us as we read them.
Open our hearts and our minds
00:00:44.46\00:00:47.27
and may these words bear
fruit to your honor and glory.
00:00:47.30\00:00:50.16
We thank you and
we love you. Amen
00:00:50.19\00:00:53.23
I am reading from the
book of Mark, chapter seven,
00:00:53.27\00:00:56.83
beginning with verse 24 and
this is the King James version.
00:00:56.86\00:01:00.53
And from thence he
arose, and went into the borders
00:01:00.56\00:01:04.62
of Tyre and Sidon,
and entered into an house,
00:01:04.65\00:01:07.61
and would have no man know
it: but he could not be hid.
00:01:07.64\00:01:10.58
For a certain woman, whose young
daughter had an unclean spirit,
00:01:10.61\00:01:14.37
heard of him, and
came and fell at his feet:
00:01:14.40\00:01:17.13
The woman was a Greek,
a Syrophenician by nation;
00:01:17.16\00:01:21.08
and she besought him that
he would cast forth the devil
00:01:21.11\00:01:24.52
out of her daughter. But Jesus
said unto her, Let the children
00:01:24.55\00:01:29.86
first be filled, for it is
not meet to take the children's
00:01:29.89\00:01:33.74
bread and to cast it unto
the dogs. And she answered
00:01:33.77\00:01:37.32
and said unto him, Yes, Lord:
yet the dogs under the table
00:01:37.35\00:01:41.94
eat of the children's
crumbs. And he said unto her,
00:01:41.97\00:01:46.19
For this saying go thy
way; the devil is gone out
00:01:46.22\00:01:50.61
of thy daughter. And when she
was come to her house, she found
00:01:50.64\00:01:54.66
the devil gone out, and
her daughter laid upon the bed.
00:01:54.69\00:01:57.98
And again, departing from
the coasts of Tyre and Sidon, he
00:01:58.01\00:02:02.40
came unto the sea of Galilee,
through the midst of the coasts
00:02:02.43\00:02:05.41
of Decapolis. And they brought
unto him one that was deaf,
00:02:05.44\00:02:09.05
and had an impediment in
his speech; and they beseech him
00:02:09.08\00:02:12.29
to put his hand upon
him. And he took him aside
00:02:12.32\00:02:15.05
from the multitude and
put his fingers into his ears,
00:02:15.08\00:02:17.37
and he spit, and touched his
tongue; and looking up to heaven
00:02:17.40\00:02:21.31
he sighed, and saith unto him,
Ephphatha, that is, Be opened.
00:02:21.34\00:02:26.91
and straightway his ears were
opened, and the string of his
00:02:26.94\00:02:31.00
tongue was loosed and he spake
plain. And he charged them that
00:02:31.03\00:02:35.87
they should tell no man:
but the more he charged them,
00:02:35.90\00:02:38.97
so much the more a
great deal they published it:
00:02:39.00\00:02:42.71
and were beyond
measure astonished, saying,
00:02:42.74\00:02:45.88
He hath done all things well:
he maketh both the deaf to hear,
00:02:45.91\00:02:50.32
and the dumb to speak. - I'm
reading from the book of Mark,
00:02:50.35\00:02:54.35
Chapter 8. - In those days
the multitude being very great,
00:02:54.38\00:02:59.00
and having nothing to eat, Jesus
called his disciples unto him,
00:02:59.03\00:03:03.19
and saith unto them, I
have compassion on the multitude
00:03:03.22\00:03:06.51
because they have now been with
me three days, and have nothing
00:03:06.54\00:03:10.51
to eat: and if I send them away
fasting to their own houses,
00:03:10.54\00:03:14.20
they will faint by the way: for
divers of them came from far.
00:03:14.23\00:03:18.32
And his disciples answered him,
>From whence can a man satisfy
00:03:18.35\00:03:22.65
these men with bread
here in the wilderness?
00:03:22.68\00:03:24.84
And he asked them,
How many loaves have ye?
00:03:24.87\00:03:28.32
And they said, Seven. And he
commanded the people to sit down
00:03:28.35\00:03:32.71
on the ground: and he took the
seven loaves, and gave thanks,
00:03:32.74\00:03:36.23
and brake, and gave to his
disciples to set before them;
00:03:36.26\00:03:39.84
and they did set them before the
people. And they had a few small
00:03:39.87\00:03:43.97
fishes: and he blessed,
and commanded to set them also
00:03:44.00\00:03:47.65
before them. So they did eat,
and were filled: and they took
00:03:47.68\00:03:53.19
up of the broken meat
that was left seven baskets.
00:03:53.22\00:03:56.31
And they that had eaten were
about 4,000; and he sent them
00:03:56.34\00:04:00.48
away. And straightway he entered
into a ship with his disciples,
00:04:00.51\00:04:04.32
and came into the
parts of Dalmanutha.
00:04:04.35\00:04:06.99
And the Pharisees came forth,
and began to question with him.
00:04:07.02\00:04:10.58
seeking of him a sign
from heaven, tempting him.
00:04:10.61\00:04:14.00
And he sighed deeply
in his spirit, and saith,
00:04:14.03\00:04:17.93
Why doth this generation seek
after a sign? verily I say unto
00:04:17.96\00:04:23.33
you, There shall no sign
be given unto this generation.
00:04:23.36\00:04:26.87
And he left them, and entering
into the ship again departed
00:04:26.90\00:04:31.46
to the other side. Now
the disciples had forgotten to
00:04:31.49\00:04:35.14
take bread, neither had they
in the ship with them more than
00:04:35.17\00:04:38.72
one loaf. And he charged them,
saying, Take heed, beware of
00:04:38.75\00:04:44.40
the leaven of the Pharisees,
and of the leaven of Herod.
00:04:44.43\00:04:47.03
And they reasoned
among themselves, saying,
00:04:47.06\00:04:49.99
It is because we have no bread.
And when Jesus knew it, he
00:04:50.02\00:04:54.02
saith unto them, Why reason
ye because ye have no bread?
00:04:54.05\00:04:58.18
perceive ye not yet,
neither understand? have ye your
00:04:58.21\00:05:03.00
heart yet hardened? Having eyes,
see ye not? and having ears,
00:05:03.03\00:05:08.47
hear ye not? and do ye
not remember? When I brake
00:05:08.50\00:05:12.52
the five loaves among
5,000, how many baskets full of
00:05:12.55\00:05:16.44
fragments took ye up?
They say unto him, Twelve.
00:05:16.47\00:05:20.67
And when the seven among
4,000, how many baskets full
00:05:20.70\00:05:25.46
of fragments took ye
up? And they said, Seven.
00:05:25.49\00:05:29.22
And he said unto them, How
is it that ye do not understand?
00:05:29.25\00:05:34.43
And he cometh to Bethsaida; and
they bring a blind man unto him
00:05:34.46\00:05:39.18
and besought him to touch
him. And he took the blind man
00:05:39.21\00:05:42.69
by the hand, and led him out of
the town; and when he had spit
00:05:42.72\00:05:45.52
on his eyes, and put his hands
upon him, he asked him if he saw
00:05:45.55\00:05:48.37
aught. And he looked up,
and said, I see men as trees,
00:05:48.40\00:05:52.55
walking. After that he put
his hands again upon his eyes,
00:05:52.58\00:05:57.33
and made him look up: and
he was restored, and saw every
00:05:57.36\00:06:01.77
man clearly. And he sent
him away to his house, saying,
00:06:01.80\00:06:06.01
Neither go into the town,
nor tell it to any in the town.
00:06:06.04\00:06:10.37
And Jesus went out, and his
disciples, into the towns of
00:06:10.40\00:06:14.81
Caesarea Phillippi: and by
the way he asked his disciples,
00:06:14.84\00:06:19.04
saying unto them,
Whom do men say that I am?
00:06:19.07\00:06:22.17
And they answered, John the
Baptist: but some say, Elias;
00:06:22.20\00:06:26.70
and others, One of the prophets.
And he saith unto them,
00:06:26.73\00:06:31.23
But whom say ye that I am? And
Peter answereth and saith unto
00:06:31.26\00:06:36.58
him, Thou art the Christ. And
he charged them that they should
00:06:36.61\00:06:41.39
tell no man of him.
And he began to teach them,
00:06:41.42\00:06:44.73
that the Son of man must suffer
many things, and be rejected of
00:06:44.76\00:06:49.18
the elders, and of the
chief priests, and scribes,
00:06:49.21\00:06:51.65
and be killed, and after 3 days
rise again. And he spake that
00:06:51.68\00:06:56.96
saying openly. And Peter took
him, and began to rebuke him.
00:06:56.99\00:07:00.96
But when he had turned about
and looked on his disciples,
00:07:00.99\00:07:04.94
he rebuked Peter, saying,
Get thee behind me, Satan:
00:07:04.97\00:07:08.92
for thou savourest not
the things that be of God,
00:07:08.95\00:07:12.35
but the things that be of
men. And when he had called the
00:07:12.38\00:07:16.61
people unto him with his
disciples also, he said unto
00:07:16.64\00:07:19.38
them, Whosoever will come
after me, let him deny himself,
00:07:19.41\00:07:24.22
and take up his cross,
and follow me. For whosoever
00:07:24.25\00:07:28.55
will save his life shall
lose it; but whosoever shall
00:07:28.58\00:07:31.77
lose his life for my sake
and the gospel's, the same shall
00:07:31.80\00:07:35.83
save it. For what shall
it profit a man, if he shall
00:07:35.86\00:07:39.38
gain the whole world,
and lose his own soul?
00:07:39.41\00:07:42.09
Or what shall a man give
in exchange for his soul.
00:07:42.12\00:07:45.78
Whosoever therefore shall be
ashamed of me and of my words
00:07:45.81\00:07:50.30
in this adulterous and sinful
generation; of him also shall
00:07:50.33\00:07:54.99
the son of man be ashamed,
when he cometh in the glory
00:07:55.02\00:07:58.72
of his Father with the
holy angels. - Mark chapter 9. -
00:07:58.75\00:08:03.96
And he said unto them, Verily
I say unto you, That there be
00:08:03.99\00:08:09.19
some of them that stand here,
which shall not taste of death,
00:08:09.22\00:08:12.73
till they have seen the
kingdom of God come with power.
00:08:12.76\00:08:16.14
And after six days Jesus taketh
with him Peter, and James, and
00:08:16.17\00:08:21.87
John, and leadeth them up
into an high mountain apart
00:08:21.90\00:08:25.37
by themselves: and he
was transfigured before them.
00:08:25.40\00:08:29.03
and his raiment became shining,
exceeding white as snow; so as
00:08:29.06\00:08:34.35
no fuller on earth can
white them. And there appeared
00:08:34.38\00:08:38.39
unto them Elias with Moses:
and they were talking with Jesus
00:08:38.42\00:08:42.36
and Peter answered and said to
Jesus, Master, it is good for us
00:08:42.39\00:08:47.30
to be here: and let us make
3 tabernacles; one for thee,
00:08:47.33\00:08:50.45
and one for Moses, and one for
Elias. For he wist not what to
00:08:50.48\00:08:55.15
say; for they were sore afraid.
And there was a cloud that
00:08:55.18\00:09:00.18
overshadowed them: and a voice
came out of the cloud, saying,
00:09:00.21\00:09:03.10
This is my beloved
Son: hear him. And suddenly
00:09:03.13\00:09:08.65
when they had looked round
about, they saw no man any more,
00:09:08.68\00:09:11.65
save Jesus only with themselves.
And as they came down from the
00:09:11.68\00:09:16.40
mountain, he charged them
that they should tell no man
00:09:16.43\00:09:19.58
what things they had seen,
till the son of man were risen
00:09:19.61\00:09:22.98
from the dead. And they kept
that saying with themselves,
00:09:23.01\00:09:26.66
questioning one with another
what the rising from the dead
00:09:26.69\00:09:30.34
should mean. And they asked
him, saying, Why say the scribes
00:09:30.37\00:09:34.82
that Elias must first come?
And he answered and told them,
00:09:34.85\00:09:38.41
Elias verily cometh
first, and restoreth all things:
00:09:38.44\00:09:42.35
and how it is written of the
Son of man, that he must suffer
00:09:42.38\00:09:46.53
many things, and be set at
nought. But I say unto you,
00:09:46.56\00:09:50.48
That Elias is indeed come,
and they have done unto him
00:09:50.51\00:09:53.70
whatsoever they listed,
as it is written of him.
00:09:53.73\00:09:56.53
And when he came to his
disciples, he saw a great
00:09:56.56\00:09:59.63
multitude about them, and the
scribes questioning with them.
00:09:59.66\00:10:02.77
And straightway all the
people, when they beheld him,
00:10:02.80\00:10:05.66
were greatly amazed, and
running to him saluted him.
00:10:05.69\00:10:09.38
And he asked the scribes,
What question ye with them?
00:10:09.41\00:10:13.24
And one of the
multitude answered and said,
00:10:13.27\00:10:16.06
Master, I have brought unto thee
my son, which hath a dumb spirit
00:10:16.09\00:10:20.49
and wheresoever he taketh him,
he teareth him: and he foameth,
00:10:20.52\00:10:23.59
and gnasheth with his
teeth, and pineth away:
00:10:23.62\00:10:26.15
and I spake to thy disciples
that they should cast him out;
00:10:26.18\00:10:29.51
and they could not. He
answereth him, and saith,
00:10:29.54\00:10:33.44
O faithless generation,
how long shall I be with you?
00:10:33.47\00:10:37.22
how long shall I
suffer you? bring him unto me.
00:10:37.25\00:10:41.10
And they brought him
unto him: and when he saw him,
00:10:41.13\00:10:45.36
straightway the spirit tare
him and he fell on the ground,
00:10:45.39\00:10:48.40
and wallowed foaming.
And he asked his father,
00:10:48.43\00:10:51.63
How long is it ago
since this came upon him?
00:10:51.66\00:10:54.83
And he said, Of a child. And
ofttimes it hath cast him into
00:10:54.86\00:11:00.10
the fire, and into the
waters, to destroy him:
00:11:00.13\00:11:02.31
but if thou canst do any
thing, have compassion on us,
00:11:02.34\00:11:06.24
and help us. Jesus said
unto him, If thou canst believe,
00:11:06.27\00:11:11.19
all things are
possible to him that believeth.
00:11:11.22\00:11:15.55
And straightway the father
of the child cried out, and said
00:11:15.58\00:11:20.00
with tears, Lord, I believe;
help thou mine unbelief.
00:11:20.03\00:11:25.72
When Jesus saw that the
people came running together,
00:11:25.75\00:11:29.72
he rebuked the foul
spirit, saying unto him,
00:11:29.75\00:11:32.55
Thou dumb and deaf spirit,
I charge thee, come out of him
00:11:32.58\00:11:36.28
and enter no more into him. And
the spirit cried, and rent him
00:11:36.31\00:11:41.29
sore and came out of
him: and he was as one dead;
00:11:41.32\00:11:45.05
insomuch that many said,
He is dead. But Jesus took him
00:11:45.08\00:11:50.07
by the hand, and
lifted him up; and he arose.
00:11:50.10\00:11:52.16
And when he was come into the
house, his disciples asked him
00:11:52.19\00:11:55.38
privately, Why could not we
cast him out? And he said unto
00:11:55.41\00:11:59.98
them, This kind can come forth
by nothing, but by prayer and
00:12:00.01\00:12:04.91
fasting. And they departed
thence, and passed through
00:12:04.94\00:12:08.22
Galilee; and he would not
that any man should know it.
00:12:08.25\00:12:11.06
For he taught his
disciples, and said unto them,
00:12:11.09\00:12:13.64
The Son of man is delivered into
the hands of men, and they shall
00:12:13.67\00:12:17.90
kill him; and after that he
is killed, he shall rise the 3rd
00:12:17.93\00:12:22.48
day. But they understood
not that saying, and were afraid
00:12:22.51\00:12:26.49
to ask him. And
he came to Capernaum:
00:12:26.52\00:12:29.45
and being in the house
he asked them, What was it
00:12:29.48\00:12:32.72
that ye disputed
among yourselves by the way?
00:12:32.75\00:12:35.09
But they held their peace:
for by the way they had disputed
00:12:35.12\00:12:39.86
among themselves, who should
be the greatest. And he sat down
00:12:39.89\00:12:44.11
and called the twelve, and saith
unto them, If any man desire to
00:12:44.14\00:12:49.04
be first, the same shall be
last of all, and servant of all.
00:12:49.07\00:12:53.87
And he took a child, and set him
in the midst of them: and when
00:12:53.90\00:12:57.81
he had taken him in his
arms, he said unto them.
00:12:57.84\00:13:00.56
Whosoever shall receive one
of such children in my name,
00:13:00.59\00:13:04.36
receiveth me: and whosoever
shall receive me, receiveth not
00:13:04.39\00:13:09.06
me, but him that sent me.
And John answered him, saying,
00:13:09.09\00:13:13.41
Master, we saw one
casting out devils in thy name,
00:13:13.44\00:13:16.81
and he followed not us: and we
forbad him, because he followed
00:13:16.84\00:13:20.64
not us. But Jesus said, Forbid
him not: for there is no man
00:13:20.67\00:13:26.20
which shall do a miracle in
my name, that can lightly speak
00:13:26.23\00:13:29.16
evil of me. For he that is
not against us is on our part.
00:13:29.19\00:13:33.80
For whosoever shall give you a
cup of water to drink in my name
00:13:33.83\00:13:37.67
because ye belong to
Christ, verily I say unto you,
00:13:37.70\00:13:41.47
he shall not lose his reward.
And whosoever shall offend
00:13:41.50\00:13:45.61
one of these little ones
that believe in me, it is better
00:13:45.64\00:13:48.64
for him that a millstone
were hanged about his neck,
00:13:48.67\00:13:51.73
and he were cast into the sea.
And if thy hand offend thee,
00:13:51.76\00:13:55.94
cut it off: it is better
for thee to enter into life
00:13:55.97\00:13:59.27
maimed, than having two hands
to go into hell, into the fire
00:13:59.30\00:14:03.20
that never shall be quenched:
Where their worm dieth not,
00:14:03.23\00:14:05.71
and the fire is not quenched.
And if thy foot offend thee,
00:14:05.74\00:14:08.84
cut it off: it is better for
thee to enter halt into life,
00:14:08.87\00:14:12.83
than having two feet to be cast
into hell, into the fire that
00:14:12.86\00:14:16.06
never shall be quenched:
where their worm dieth not,
00:14:16.09\00:14:18.67
and the fire is not quenched:
And if thine eye offend thee,
00:14:18.70\00:14:21.92
pluck it out: it is better for
thee to enter into the kingdom
00:14:21.95\00:14:24.95
of God with one eye, than having
two eyes to be cast into hell
00:14:24.98\00:14:28.68
fire: where their worm
dieth not, and the fire is
00:14:28.71\00:14:31.61
not quenched. - Thank
