Discuss Mark 5 Page 3

Simply put Faith is something you believe in without a doubt. example, when you sit in a chair that you have never sat in before, do you check it out to make sure that it is safe or do you just sit in it, trusting that it was built to hold a human weight. This, to me would be an example of Faith that it was built to be safe. Or when you see a little child and see the trust they have in their parents to protect and nourish them, this is another example of Faith. Throughout the NT there are many examples of Faith, John 20:25 Thomas who just spent 3 years with Jesus, but had doubt on His resurrection, until Jesus showed himself to him, Mark 5:25-34 is of a woman who had an issue of blood, and believed, and she was healed. Matthew 8:10 the Roman centurion believed and his servant was healed. Likewise as Christians we need to believe that Jesus death and resurrection on the cross is the only way to our salvation. Hebrews chapter 11 Paul explains faith in great detail, Matthew 18:3 tells us to become and believe as a child. I hope this helps.

John 20:25 "The other disciples therefore said unto him, We have seen the Lord. But he said unto them, Except I shall see in his hands the print of the nails, and put my finger into the print of the nails, and thrust my hand into his side, I will not believe."

Mark 5:25 And a certain woman, which had an issue of blood twelve years, 27 When she had heard of Jesus, came in the press behind, and touched his garment. 28 For she said, If I may touch but his clothes, I shall be whole. 29 And straightway the fountain of her blood was dried up; and she felt in her body that she was healed of that plague. Mark 5:34 "And he said unto her, Daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole; go in peace, and be whole of thy plague."

Matthew 8:10 "When Jesus heard it, he marvelled, and said to them that followed, Verily I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel."

christ let his son die on the cross, How do I praise God and not asking anything,?. How do i praise god Holy name?

In Mark 5:1-17, we read of the account of the demon-possessed man, who was released from that evil possession. In that release, the demons needed to be physically cast into other living creatures, or else they would roam free to possess others, & so Jesus had commanded them to leave the man & to possess the swine. Of course, the swine began to exhibit the strange behaviour that comes with demonic possession, & began their wild run which saw them eventually drown into the sea.

So the herders of the swine, witnessing all this, also ran off & reported this to the townsfolk. So they told them about how the demon-possessed man was freed & how their swine subsequently perished. So the people were not concerned about the swine - they simply listened to the account by the herders concerning the man & the swine. The herders, of course, would have had to break the bad news to the owners of the swine, as to why the whole herd perished. We're not told about their fate & whether they still had their jobs after all this.

In Mark 5:16 why were the people also concerned for the swine of pigs?

Mark 5:34

"And he said unto her, Daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole; go in peace, and be whole of thy plague."

Luke 17:19

"And he said unto him, Arise, go thy way: thy faith hath made thee whole.

For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation

James 1:8

"A double minded man is unstable in all his ways."

Hebrews 10:38

King James Version

38 Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him.

To FRED SCANLAN

Please remember that the sons of God have come for the pulling down of this world's 'Strongholds', religion being the strongest of them all ( 2 Cor. 10:4; Luke 11:21-23).

When it comes to the Medical Profession, please know that the believers live by faith, as the true and living God of Abraham, Isaac & Jacob is their guide in all things. Remember how God took care of a host of 2m people for forty years. He fed them and provided them with water and other essentials. Even their shoes and garments didn't wear out. Also remember that out of the original group that crossed the Red Sea only Joshua & Caleb crossed the Jordan River. All the rest died in the wilderness, while only the new generation crossed the Jordan.

Rather than speaking from personal experience, we believe that the most effective way to be taught and to come to the understanding of 'The Chastening of the Lord' is by the Word of God itself

To JOEL OSTEEN

So, you want us to stop posting our message of Repentance, which is according to the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive ( John 14:17). The emphasis on the word 'cannot'. Legion also wanted to be left alone ( Mark 5:9; Luke 8:30). In summary our message remains the same: Ye must repent.

The Baptism of Repentance is the key principle of all the teachings of Jesus Christ and the axiom (basis) of the Word of God and a prerequisite and primary requirement for the salvation of mankind. It actually means the changing of spirits - to turn from darkness to light and from the power of Satan unto God ( Acts 26:18).

For a better understanding and the 'spiritual truth' of what it means to repent, and learn how and by whom mankind has been deceived ( Rev. 12:9) and what people must do to be reunited with the true and living God, we invite you to seek Him according to the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive ( Matthew 7:7; John 14:17). The emphasis again on the word 'cannot'.

You need not that any man teach you ( Isaiah 54:13; 6:45; 1 John 2:27), as mankind follows after an image of a false god and a false Christ ( Matthew 24:24; Mark 13:22; Gal. 4:8; 2 Cor. 11:13-15; Rev. 12:9).

It is only by revelation of God that people will come to know the true Christ ( Daniel 12:4,9; Amos 3:7; Matthew 16:17; Luke 2:26; Romans 16:25; 1 Cor. 2:10; Gal. 1:16; Eph. 3:3,5; Rev. 1:1), and only then will you be able to overcome the spirit of this world ( 1 John 5:4; Rev. 3:21) and learn what 'True Repentance' means, and how this whole world has been deceived ( Rev. 12:9). It should also be remembered that it is a narrow way that leadeth unto 'Life', and few there be that find it ( Matthew 7:14).

LUKE 15:10. LIKEWISE, I SAY UNTO YOU, THERE IS JOY IN THE PRESENCE OF THE ANGELS OF GOD OVER ONE SINNER THAT REPENTETH.

Amber,

I believe your question is a great one. God is not the author of confusion.

However, I respect others opinions and their journey with the Lord even if I disagree with their doctrine or beliefs.

For two millennia, people have been expecting the Lord to return and arguing over their beliefs.

Obviously after 40 generations (estimate), the world has yet to witness the 2nd Coming.

The Bible has never been proven to be wrong. God states, I have told you in advance, so when it happens, you will know I have spoken it. 66 books were given as proof. Other books are claimed to be part of it, but that is another discussion/distraction for another time.

The Bible claims 2 people and one member of the Godhead have ascended to Heaven. Interestingly, there were witnesses to all 3 ascensions. The Bible claims throughout, Old and New Testaments all others who have passed to be in the grave and awaiting one of the Ressurections.

For myself, I choose to believe the Scriptures instead of mankind that has been trying to change God's Word since creation.

I would recommend you take it to the Lord in prayer. Seek and ask for the guidance of the Holy Spirit. Read the Gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke and John). See Jesus' words for yourself.

Read the parables.

May you be given eyes to see, ears to hear, and may the Holy Spirit guide and teach you in all things. Blessings and Prayers.

Why does the holy spirit in Mark 5 not unlike all of Christs teaching, give us specific info. 3 things ,Christ ability too cast out demons,Christ ability to heal the long term sickness, and 3 to raise the dead, a 12 yr. old little girl! When i read the commentaries many equate mans sin in relation with all these. how we are all dead in tresspasses and sin, that because of sin we could very well become like the demoniac, we all are born with a long term sickness called sin. Mark records this exactly the way he recalls it. Is there something else we need to know? Are we suppose to look deeper into his words ? How are we to interpret scripture for all to understand. One thing is for sure that wherever Christ goes there is always something extraordinary that will happen. His life and what happens while here on earth is unbelievable. Perhaps these and all Christ miracles are stories that require faith, Faith is the real story,that he did all this and more. Faith will cast demons into hell. faith will heal us from the disease of sin, and truly faith will give us eternal life through him.

Psalms 100:4

Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name.

1 Samuel 18:6

And it came to pass as they came, when David was returned from the slaughter of the Philistine, that the women came out of all cities of Israel, singing and dancing, to meet king Saul, with tabrets, with joy, and with instruments of musick.

2 Samuel 6:5

And David and all the house of Israel played before the LORD on all manner of instruments made of fir wood, even on harps, and on psalteries, and on timbrels, and on cornets, and on cymbals.

1 Chronicles 15:16

And David spake to the chief of the Levites to appoint their brethren to be the singers with instruments of musick, psalteries and harps and cymbals, sounding, by lifting up the voice with joy.

2 Chronicles 5:13

It came even to pass, as the trumpeters and singers were as one, to make one sound to be heard in praising and thanking the LORD; and when they lifted up their voice with the trumpets and cymbals and instruments of musick, and praised the LORD, saying, For he is good; for his mercy endureth for ever: that then the house was filled with a cloud, even the house of the LORD;

2 Chronicles 7:6

And the priests waited on their offices: the Levites also with instruments of musick of the LORD, which David the king had made to praise the LORD, because his mercy endureth for ever, when David praised by their ministry; and the priests sounded trumpets before them, and all Israel stood.

Nehemiah 12:36

And his brethren, with the MUSICAL instruments of David the man of God, and Ezra the scribe before them.

Psalms 68:25

The singers went before, the players on instruments followed after; among them were the damsels playing with timbrels.

Psalms 87:7

As well the singers as the players on instruments shall be there: all my springs are in thee.

Psalms 150:4

Praise him with the timbrel and dance:

Their soul & spirits are with God now. Of the dead in Christ. Their bodies will be reunited, first; when they are Caught Up to Jesus in the clouds ("rapture").

Then those believers who are alive will be Caught Up, next. It will all happen in the blink of an eye.

You just blinked :) I did too.

Jesus tells us that we are asleep, when we die. he will come and resurrect us. So , why do people believe that their loved ones are in heaven, when they are asleep? You cant be in Heaven ,if he is coming to resurrect us..

Comments by Alex on the man legion living in the tombs. Legion was MANY as there are many living in the tombs under the Law. The law said the soul that sinneth shall surly die thus we are in the tombs under the law. And legion was without clothing and so are we under the law simply b/c the law exposes our sinful nature. Legion means Many script. says that Many men tried to tame legion with chains and fetters but he broke the chains and fetters to pieces and was driven OF THE DEVIL into the wilderness . ( OUTSIDE THE HOLY CITY ) THE CHAINS AND FETTERS WERE OF IRON BUT THEY WERE WEAK TO LEGION .What the law cd not do in that it WEAK thru the flesh God had to send his son in the form on sinful flesh to condemn sin in the flesh. The laws and commandments are strong as iron but they are Weak to the flesh meaning mans carnal mind is satans head spirit .Carnal man breaks every law and commandment to pieces just like legion broke every chain and fetter to pieces. Many men try to tame their sinful adamic nature with laws and commannments ( chains and fetters ) but we break every law and commandments to pieces. What the law cd NOT do in that it was weak thru the flesh God had to send his son in the form of sinfull flesh to condemn sin in the flesh. simply b/c the law cd not do it. Only Christ cd tame legion by his living WORD, whom the son sets free is free indeed but the law cd not set mankind free. Jesus said whosoever sins is the servant of sin thus we are not free just yet till this corruptible puts on incorruption, and this mortal puts on immortality near future.nobody can tame the beasts that lives with n us as James said all the beasts in the world has been tamed by man but the tongue can no man tame the tongue is an extention of mans carnal mind mans carnal mind is the beast.That which is born of the flesh is the beast When they brought Josephs coat to Jacob he said a wild beast has done this and he was right the 10 born of the flesh was th beasts and still true. gb

God is all powerful. He's the only wise God, the miraculous God, the incomparable God who just speaks the word and man can be made whole again. Let us all remain focus and believe that whatever we ask in His name, it shall be done.

It is worthwhile to complete things that are worth starting and ending. Smart people always do things from beginning to end.

Amen! If we would all humble ourselves and pray He will hear us and heal our nations, stay the course fear not for He alone has over come the world. We have a Mighty, Powerful, Loving, Healer, full of Mercy and Grace, we are blessed not by anything we can do but what He has done. Sinner saved by Grace through Faith, in Jesus of Nazareth . He gave us His peace. God Bless and the Lord be with you all always Amen. Sing out Praise to the Rock the unshakable, unmovable, Lord. Hallelujah I love Him

Amen. Praise God and ALWAYS give thanks to Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Now with COVID-19 looming all across the world, we must continue to pray for ALL our sisters and brothers. We must pray for the lost sheep and those that are hardened to God's Holy Word that they turn from their wicked ways, repent and accept Jesus Christ as their personal Savior. Truly we are living in troubling times and we MUST stay the course. Proverbs 3:5-6. Amen. Hallelujah. Praises up and blessings down. I trust you LORD and give you ALL the glory, honor and praise, today and ALL days.

The Scriptures confirm King David did not obey God even before his adultery with Bathsheba he held onto bitterness towards his wife and his revenge was not to have Children with her and than he Married Pagan Woman which God had forbidden and it was adultrey too. David Repented and than what did he ask for? Ps51:10-17 he was now a Man after God's own Heart and God knew he would be He knows It All.

Yes they knew who Jesus was but they didn't have Bibles like we do and even if they did they wouldn't have understood Scripture because they didn't have God's Wisdom which is the Principle thing in Understanding His Truth Prov4:7 through the empowering of The Holy Spirit. Satan didn't know Scripture when he tempted Jesus but Jesus did and used it to rufute him.

The devils and unclean spirits recognize Jesus right off. They know the bible better than most of us.

My daughterbTalitha named after scripture Love the Lord Jesus and the blessing of life of my beautiful daughter Talitha too

The issue of blood: Hemorrhage . The KJV Bible has given us three witnesses : Matthew 9:20 Mark 5:25 Luke 8:43.

He touched me and make me whole praise God,

verse 39, ..........Why make ye this ado, and weep? the damsel is not dead, but sleepeth..... through the eyes of Jesus the girl was asleep though she was dead, never-the-less this moment in time was another moment that Jesus would demonstrate the power of GOD 2017 she died 3-times in E R yet walked out the hospital nothing new under the Sun OHoooooooo the power of Jehovah GOD .

We are all attacked daily by legions of the devil, we must live in faith that the we abide under the wing of God, pray to the Lord for wisdom and pray for those suffering and caught up in their wicked ways, that they can be delivered from those snares, we all have been lead to the word, and from our sinfulness , and we need to do the same for them, through the love of Christ

The Damon-possessed ran to Jesus when he Saw Him afar off,so that he could Worship Him. ( Mark 5:6) The Man Wanted Everything to do With The with The Son of God /The demons did not, They Cried Out Torment me not when Christ Said, Come of The Man, Thou Unclean spirit.( Mark 5:7-8) The Man Saw his Only Hope, Nothing was Going to Stop Him. The Son of God is The Only Savior. Call while He is Near.

David was a man after Gods own heart he kept the LAW TO THE BEST OF HIS ABILITY BUT WHEN DAVID SAW BATHSHEBA BATHIN HE BROKE EVERY LAW AND COMANDMENT TO PIECES JUST AS LEGION BROKE THE CHAINS AND THE FETTERS TO PIECES THEY WERE VERY WEAK TO LEGION,WHAT THE LAW CD NOT DO IN THAT IT WAS WEAK THRU THE FLESH GOD HAD TO SEND HIS SON TO CONDEMN SIN IN THE FLESH THE BEAST IN US CANNOT BE TAMED BY THE LAW

The man legion wanted nothin to do with Christ thats us HUMANITY, legion broke every chain and fetter to pieces HUMANITY BREAKS EVERY LAW AND COMMANDMENT TO PIECES THE SCRIPTURE SAYS MANY MEN TRIED TO TAME LEGION WITH CHAINS AND FETTERS BUT HE BROKE THE CHAINS AND FETTERS WE TRY TO TAME OUR EVIL ADAMIC NATURE WITH LAWS AND COMMANDMENTS BUT OUR EVIL SPIRIT CANNOT BE TAMED WITH LAWS AND COMMANDMENTS

THANK YOU

Verses 26-28~Even though the woman with the flow of blood had been disappointed time and time again, she did not give up hope. She kept her faith and as a result she received healing from Jesus.
