Young people slowly turn away from the Church. They loose interest in Christ. They feel boredom in the preaching of pastors, even a young man had that problem in Mark. A little further walk with Christ could have given him a great light. Where are you today, O young man?

Lesson 15 Mark 10:17-23 Jesus and Youth in Mark “Remember your Creator in the days of your youth” (Ecclesiastes 12:1).

Sermon # 39 - Possible With God Alone Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Jul 25, 2025

The one thing that is a chief contender for our love and allegiance to God is the riches of this world. If we desire to inherit eternal life we must choose to know God, love Him above all else and keep money in its rightful place. What seems impossible with men is possible with God alone.

We read in Mark 10:27, “Jesus looked at them and said, “With man it is impossible, but not with God. For all things are possible with God.” (ESV) Mankind has advanced in leaps and bounds in science, technology, industrialization and medicine. However, all of these progressions have still left us ...read more

Jesus knew He was God and said so: He was accused of being God at his trial.
