Our Salvation Is Possible for God
Manage episode 286348904 series 2094168
Rev. Jacob Dandy, pastor at Zion Lutheran Church and School in Terra Bella, CA, joins host Rev. Timothy Appel to study Mark 10:17-31.
The rich young man stands in contrast to the little children Jesus has just welcomed. Whereas those little children came with nothing and desired to receive from Jesus, this man presumes that he does have something to offer Jesus. He believes he has kept the law. Jesus responds to his law questions with law answers, all the while trying to draw the rich man toward the truth of the Gospel. Out of love, Jesus seeks to show this man his idolatry. When the man leaves sorrowful, Jesus teaches His disciples how riches particularly become an idol that entraps us and prevents us from entering the kingdom of God. Yet what is impossible with sinful humanity is possible with God. Only through the work of Jesus Christ is any sinner brought into the kingdom of God. In His kingdom, the gifts that He bestows far surpass anything that we lose in this world.
“The Gospel in Action” is a mini-series on Sharper Iron that goes through the Gospel according to St. Mark. The Evangelist hits the ground running with the very first verse of his Gospel account, and he never lets up the pace. As one deed of Jesus comes right after another, always paired with His authoritative Word, St. Mark proclaims the good news that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, revealed conclusively by His death on the cross.
