GospeL Verses ~ Mark 6:46-56

46 - After he had seen them off, he went further into the mountain to be alone to pray. 47 And when evening came, the boat was out on the sea [of Galilee] but he was still on land. 48 He saw that they were struggling. The wind was against them. (And so often such is life.) And at about the fourth watch of the night he went out to them, walking on the water. He meant to pass by, 49 but they saw him and thought it was a ghost, and cried out. 50 For they saw him walking by on the water and they were terrified. But he said, “Take heart! It is I! Don’t be afraid!” 51 And he got into the boat with them, the wind stopped, and they were utterly amazed. 52 For they didn’t understand [suniémi - put together, consider, understand, perceive] about the loaves, for their hearts were hardened [póroó - petrified, hardened, from pōros, a kind of marble) – properly, made of stone; figuratively, insensible, dull, unperceptive, unresponsive]. (Unresponsive.. perhaps struggles of life make us more responsive.. and he gets in, or that is we realize he’s in the boat with us. This in response to the extreme thought that when he calls we should be like - zero. Zero response. I understand we DO NOT earn Life/salvation. That’s the other extreme. But a stone as a bride? I can’t think that’s the way either.)

     53 When they had crossed over, they came to land at Gennesaret and anchored to shore. 54 When they got out of the boat, the people immediately recognized Jesus, 55 and they ran about the whole region and began to bring the sick people on their beds to wherever they heard that he was. 56 And wherever he came, in the villages, cities, or countryside, they laid the sick in the marketplaces and implored him that they might touch even the fringe of his garment. And as many as touched were made well. (I rest my case.)

From New Testament Letters

     (In the Order Believed Written)

                ~ 1John 3:10-14 ~

10 - By this it is evident who are the children of God, and who are (still) children of the devil. Whoever does not practice righteousness is not of God, noR is the one who does not love their fellow (person).

     11 This is the message that you have heard from the beginning! That we should love one another. 12 We should not be like Cain, who was of the evil one and murdered his brother. And why did he murder him? Because his own deeds were evil [ponéros - toilsome, bad] (not good) and his brother's righteous. 13 Don’t be surprised, brothers and sisters, that the world dislikes you. 14 We know we have passed out of death into life, because we love the brothers and sisters [adelphos - from alpha, a prefix and delphus - womb] (Eve is “the mother of us all” and especially our brothers and sisters believing in the Lord with us). Whoever does not love, is abiding in death.
