With God, All Things Are Possible

Today, Pastor Michael is turning over the reigns to Billy Huneycutt. Billy reads from the Gospel of Mark, where a man runs up to Jesus and falls on his knees before him, asking, “What must I do, good teacher, to inherit eternal life?”. Jesus counsels the man that no one is good but God alone and that he knows the commandments. The man replied that he had done all that since he was a boy. So, Jesus tells him further to sell everything and come and follow Him. The man did not like that a bit; his face fell, and Jesus told His disciples and followers, “How hard it is for the rich to enter into the Kingdom of God.”

Here, Billy reminds us that all things are possible with God. All of us have fallen short. We have the commandments and the Bible and don’t always follow what we know we shouldn’t do. Why? Because we chose our own way. We have free will to do so.

Love Jesus and follow Him closer and closer, and you will have transformative change!

(CSB Bible Notes) 10:23 How hard it is refers to extreme difficulty. Rather than an advantage, possessions hinder entering God’s kingdom.

Verses can be found in Mark 10: 17-27 and John 3: 16.
