In Mark 10:32-34, we hear Jesus telling His disciples what would be and was converging upon Him in Jerusalem.

This will be the last time our Lord mentions His coming suffering, death and resurrection. This begins the last week of our Lord’s life on earth.

It is here that Our Lord refers, once again, to Himself as the Son of Man, His favorite title for Himself.

This is the title for the Messiah.

Up to this point in the book of Mark, Jesus has used this phrase, Son of Man, 7 times.

Mark writes this title for Jesus a total of 14 times in his Gospel with chapter 10:45 referencing His servanthood.

Here is Dr. Mitchell, Mark 10:32-34, showing us the Savior on the way to Jerusalem to suffer and die for you and me.

Here in Mark 10:22⁠, Mark records Jesus’ words as concerning the difficulty of those occupied with wealth to enter the kingdom of God.

Dr. Mitchell notes, it is not impossible, but it can be difficult for such a one who makes wealth a priority over a relationship to the Lord Jesus Christ.

1st Timothy 6:17 gives instruction for those believers, who are rich in this present age, to set their hope on God rather than on the uncertainty of riches.

Peter wanted to know what about the disciples who left everything to follow Jesus. What reward would they have?

They would have a family of God along with persecutions and in the age to come, eternal life.

Dr. Mitchell, Mark 10:22, on the Unchanging Word Bible Broadcast, says, “you never lose by giving to the savior.”

In Mark 10:17-22, Mark writes of a rich young man coming to Jesus, saying, “Good teacher”. Jesus asked him why he called Him good. No one one is good except one, God.

Jesus emphasizes the absolute goodness of God. Was the young man acknowledging Jesus as being absolutely good as well, as being God?

Dr. Mitchell brings out the ignorance of the young man, even in his own integrity, as to his actual condition before God.

Maybe you have done all you know to do thinking it would give you acceptance with God, even by religious ceremonies.

You may be like Cornelius,(Acts 10) a God fearing man, but still needing to hear the gospel message of salvation by grace.

Have you believed in the Lord Jesus Christ and your sins forgiven?

Here is Dr. Mitchell, on the Unchanging Word Bible Broadcast, Mark 10:17.
