Today’s GospeL Verses ~ Mark 11:20-26

20 - In the morning when they went back by the fig tree that Jesus had cursed, they saw it had withered away right down to its roots. 21 And Peter remembering said, “Rabbi, look! The fig tree you cursed has withered.” 22 And Jesus said to them, “Have faith in God. 23 For truly, I tell you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be taken up and thrown into the sea,’ and doesn’t doubt in their heart, but believes what they say will come to pass, it will be done for them. 24 Therefore I say, whatever you ask in prayer, believe you receive it, and it will be yours. 25 And whenever you stand praying, if you have anything against anyone, forgive them, so your Father who is in heaven may also forgive you your trespasses [paraptóma - a false step, trespass, from parapiptó - to fall in, into or away, to fail; a lapse (deviation) from the truth, an error, slip up, wrong doing that can be (relatively) unconscious/non-deliberate].”

                ~ Galatians 3:16-21 ~

16 - The promises were made to Abraham and to his offspring. God didn’t say to Abraham, “And to your offsprings,” as though referring to many, but - “to your offspring” - referring to one. And that one, is Christ. 17 This is what I mean - the law, which came 430 years later, doesn’t cancel a covenant/contract/agreement/guarantee, previously ratified by God, so as to nullify the promise. 18 For if the inheritance comes by the law, then it no longer comes by promise. But God gave it to Abraham by a promise [epaggelia - a summons, promise, from epí - upon, appropriate, and aggellō - announce – a promise which literally announces what is fitting, epaggelía is a legal term that refers to an officially sanctioned promise].

     19 Why then the law? It was added because of transgression [parabasis - a going aside, from pará - contrary, and bainō - go – properly, an overstepping, a deliberate going over the line and transgression]. The law was added, until the offspring should come to whom, and about whom, the promise had been made. The law was put in place through angels, and by an mediator. (Moses.) 20 Now a mediator is helpful if more than one party must reach an agreement. But God didn’t use a mediator when he gave his promise to Abraham. (?He said it. HE will bring it to pass.)

     21 Does the law then contradict the promises God has made? Certainly not! For if a law had been given that can impart life, then indeed, righteousness would come about from the law.
