John 9:18

The Jews did not believe that he had been blind and had received his sight, until they called the parents of the man who had received his sight

The Jews/Pharisees did not believe that this man had been blind. He is telling them, repeatedly, that he was blind but now he can see. And yet they did not believe. What causes this unbelief? Why did they, and why do we struggle with believing? Can we become those who open our eyes in wonder and belief and believe that God is doing marvelous things?

Mark 6:34
34 When Jesus landed and saw a large crowd, he had compassion on them, because they were like sheep without a shepherd. So he began teaching them many things.

Jesus sees people who are desperate for the truth, for the life they had seen in Jesus. They are lost. They want to be found. And Jesus has compassion to give them what they are looking for; life, the gospel. May we want Jesus like that.

Jesus teaches his disciples to be witnesses. This job of witnessing is essential for any follower of Jesus. This witnessing is empowered by faith. Living by faith, living totally dependent upon God is the power source for the witness to Jesus.

Mark 5:35

35 While he was still speaking, there came from the ruler’s house some who said, “Your daughter is dead. Why trouble the Teacher any further?”

What limits do we put on Jesus? Jairus’ people put limits on Jesus. They thought that death was the limit to Jesus’ ability to heal. Jesus demonstrated to Jairus that he goes WAY beyond those limits, or any limits we place on him.

Exodus 32:32

32 But now, if you will forgive their sin—but if not, please blot me out of your book that you have written.

Moses demonstrates his character and closeness with God. He begs God to be merciful to the Israelites. Moses gets angry and disciplines the people (viciously). And Moses goes back to God and stands up for those people again (blot me out). Moses loves the people of Israel. He learned the lesson from God himself.

Mark 4:24

24 And he said to them, “Pay attention to what you hear: with the measure you use, it will be measured to you, and still more will be added to you.

Jesus is teaching the crowd in parables. However, the parables are all around one theme, the word of God. How you hear the word of God is the whole issue. Therefore, Jesus says, Pay attention to what you hear, or See how you Hear. What measurement are you using for hearing? Are you trying to fill your measuring cup with hearing, that is, are you trying to really hear and really do what God tells you? Or are you just sort of hearing and sort of obeying?

Mark 4:10-12

10 And when he was alone, those around him with the twelve asked him about the parables. 11 And he said to them, “To you has been given the secret of the kingdom of God, but for those outside everything is in parables, 12 so that

“ ‘they may indeed see but not perceive,

and may indeed hear but not understand,

lest they should turn and be forgiven.’ ”

These people came to Jesus because they didn’t understand what Jesus was teaching. Jesus was teaching through parables, confusing stories. We often come across things in the Bible that we don’t understand. We need to do what these people did. They came to Jesus and asked.

Mark 15:5

5 But Jesus made no further answer, so that Pilate was amazed.

Jesus, the obedient Son of God, the servant who humbles himself, demonstrates some of his most amazing characteristics. Jesus gives, carefully, information to Pilate to get himself crucified. H also doesn’t defend himself. And Pilate was amazed. We should be amazed, too.
