Discuss Mark 16 Page 15

Joni G the Holy Spirit moves in all peoples including the deaf and lame. People need not hear to be able to believe because the Holy Spirit works in ways beyond our limited human understanding. We that hear and have all of our senses should be all the more humbled by what we do have and give of ourselves all the more. In Jesus name being also Immanuel, Amen.

I like it

The Lord tells the apostles in Mr 16 to preach the gospel of the Kingdom . Many groups who teach baptismal regeneration misapply this passage by saying that an individual must believe and be baptized in order to be saved. Another of their favorites is Peter speaking to the nation of Israel in Ac 2:38 telling them to repent and be baptized "in the name of Jesus " for the remission of sins. Then they would receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. Both of these baptisms are directly associated with the nation of Israel, and not with the Church. The Bible records at least seven types of baptisms.

Thank you Joni G.

To Joni Gs, Acts 2 Chapter comment on 2 05 2015, 1:40 PM. You said I am going to do what Jesus says and not some convoluted other partial way. Well are you casting out devils now like Mark 16: V.17 says or taking up serpents or drinking any deadly things like in verse 18. You need to be a missionary and go to the Middle East and convert ISIS, I bet they would not give you anything deadly to drink. Honestly all in love you need to read C.I. Scofield 's 1917 Ref. Bible page 1069 notes 16 9.

When Jesus asked the disciples to go into all the world and preach the Gospel in the great commission in Mark 16:15-16 and Matthew 28-19-20, He didn 't say make disciples of believers and baptize Jews only. He didn 't say belief is enough for Gentiles. I am going to do what Jesus says and not some convoluted other partial way.

We all know that God is Sovereign, his Son Jesus is the only Way to Heaven and we are saved by Jesus blood. There is life in the blood. By faith, when we are baptized into His death, we come into contact with the saving blood. Romans 6:3-4 Galatians 3:27 1 Peter 3:21, Mark 16:15-16

Motdaugrnd, you are not wrong. Paul and Peter were talking about actual human race languages. Today we have the word of God to teach people. There is special work being done to help deaf people understand God 's Word who can 't hear or speak. There world is very different than speaking peoples. Praise God we can hear, read, speak and understand God 's word and the Holy Spirit who guides us into all truth.

Mark 16:16, believeth Jesus has risen, we shall be saved by believes he has risen. If we do not believe he has risen then we will be judged or not saved. Believe in Him and we are saved.

Kevin 1st Corinthians 12:14 states, "For the body is not one member, but many. " This is talking of the diversified gifts that are of ONE AND THE SAME SPIRIT. It does not refer specifically to speech. And I could not find where Peter was mentioned here. chapter 14 does talk about "unknown tongue " yet seems to refer strictly to the Holy Spirit 's utterances in our behalf. It also states "He that speaketh in an unknown tongue edifieth himself...speaketh not unto men, but unto God. " This seems to be confirmed in Romans 8:26. Thus, what I 'm hearing here appears to fit with my understanding , that what some people are calling "speaking in tongues " and doing so openly in front of admirers are NOT what this Scripture is talking about. Am I wrong?

In my church deliverance is conducted in the name of JESUS CHRISTIAN and demons are casted out

I have a question as to how many were present at the ascension of Jesus. In this chapter we see Jesus with the eleven disciples but if you look at Luke 24: 13-53 we see Jesus talking to the two men from Emmaus. They end up going to the eleven disciples, verse 33. We see an addition at the end of verse 33 " and them that were with them " Now you have the eleven and them with them and the two with them. They are given some instructions and are led out of Bethany and they watch him ascend.

Motgaugrnd, Please study 1st Corinthians chapters 12 14. I agree with Joni as the scripture clearly states people heard Peter speak in their native speech. Chapter 14 teaches on non-understood spiritual utterings. Also read Romans 8:26

Joni G. Thank you for that information. I did find the parts of Scripture you are referring to and believe your explanation is Biblical. I 've been hearing of some referring to the speaking in tongues as something only understood by few, stating it was coming from the Holy Spirit within. I have not been able to accept this simply because the Scriptures tell us to "come and let us reason together ", which leaves out any language that cannot be understood by man. Even when Jesus spoke in parables, it was still of wording those about him could understand. Yes, the spiritual understanding was hid from many there but the wording used was familiar to them. I think I 'm wiser to stick with what I personally can understand as I don 't think the Holy Spirit would expect me to understand a language I 'm not acquainted with.

This gospel being preached in Acts 2 is that of the Kingdom of Heaven. This is the same gospel that John the Baptist preached. Mark 1:4 John did baptize in the wilderness, and preach the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins. The kingdom was still being offered to the Jews because of Jesus ' prayer to THE FATHER, a member of the Godhead Rom 1:20, Col 2:9, Acts 17:29, in Lk 23.34 Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them for they know not what they do. In Acts 7 Jesus is standing at the right hand of the FATHER. I don 't see how you don 't see the Godhead in the Scripture. Jesus is standing because He was ready to come back if they would have received his message as a nation. That 's what He said would happen. Mark 14:62 And Jesus said, I am: and ye shall see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven. Mark 16:19 So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God. They rejected the message and God went to the Gentiles through the apostle Paul. The Gospel for today is found in 1 Cor 15:1-4 and no water baptism or tongues are mentioned. Acts 2:38 is cursed for today Gal 1:8-9. Why? It 's not for us today.

Motgaugrnd, after the Day of Pentecost, in Acts 2, the apostles were filled with the Holy Ghost and the people baptized received the gift of the Holy Ghost, guiding them into all truth. They spoke in many different languages that day, actual human languages for the different peoples present. The purpose? To spread the Gospel. A new way to follow God. The Way through Jesus Christ. Tongue is from the Greek word glossa. When the apostles laid their hands on the new believers in Christ, those believers could cast out demons or speak in different languages. The purpose? To build up the church all over the world. Today we have the Bible translated in hundreds of languages, so everyone can read about Jesus and trust and obey. Praise God from whom all blessings flow! God bless you, Motdaugrnd.

In verse 17 it states, "And these signs shall follow them that believe In my name shall they cast out devils they shall speak with new tongues " Can anyone identify other Scripture that can explain what "new tongues " means?

Around the circle reasoning merry go round we go. Tongues are for a sign 1 Cor 14:22 and Jews require a sign 1Cor 1:22. The Jews in Acts 2 are getting the gospel of the Kingdom preached to them, not the gospel of the Grace of God. The second coming is in view here. Joel 2 was not completely fulfilled. Notice especially that the events of verse 19 and 20 never happend. The signs are there to confirm the word Mark 16:20 because the New Testament wasn 't written yet. No one is saved like Acts 2:38 again. In ch 8 hands are laid. In Acts 10 no baptism required. Acts is a transitional book from the law to pure grace. Peter starts getting straight on his doctrine in Chapter 10 then by Chapter 15 he is convinced that it is by grace through faith. No works Eph 2:8thru9. Rightly divide. Who is the verse talking to? All Scripture is for you but not all is TO you doctrinally. Jesus is always the same, yes. But He certainly deals with men differently in different time periods. You can eat pork today but under the law you couldn 't. Baptism was a part of salvation under the gospel of the Kingdom but not under grace. Acts 2:38 is condemned under the church age Gal 1:8-9.

Jacob, your 1:05pm, 12-31 comment was interesting. That is right about the preachers giving different parts of the salvation plan at different places in the Bible. The Jews had shredded hearts after they heard Peter 's sermon in Acts 2.So, Peter didn 't say believe in Christ first. They believed so then Peter said repent and be baptized in the name of Christ and you will be saved. I almost cry each time I read about Stephen 's sermon and stoning.Jesus stood for him! Amazing!He sits now in glory with everything under His feet. Jesus says believe and be baptized and you shall be saved in Mark 16:15-16. He doesn 't say repent there but of course we must. No following the world and Christ. Thanks for your insight. It is appreciated.

Part 2. Acts 16:31 is what we must do to be saved. God was dealing with the nation of Israel Acts 3:19 that was getting a second chance to receive their Messiah because of Jesus prayer in Lk 23:34. The Father forgave them and they had a second chance to receive their Messiah and the desciples had the SIGNS to Jews 1Cor 1:22,14:22 to confirm the word Mark 16:20 because the N.T. wasn 't written yet. Don 't go to hell in Acts 2:38 when you can go to heaven in Rom 10:8-13.

See 1 Cor 14:22 where tongues are for a sign. Thus, the Bible definition from Mark 16 to Acts 2, from Acts 10 to Acts 19, and from 1 Cor 12 through 14, signs were given to Jewish apostles for use in confirming the word see Mark 16:20. In each case this sign gift of tongues was manifest because there were Jews present who were in a state of unbelief. There is no record in the Bible of tongues being used when believers were gathered as a local church. And, if an unbeliever came into a place like the carnal church at Corinth, where human spirits were leading men to babble into the air, he would think he was in a madhouse, not in the house of God.

This Chapter BOLDLY and TRUTHFULLY tells Christians that our SOLE Job is to go out to all the the world TEACHING and BAPTIZING in JESUS name to all who will receive the words of this bible. It is essential that everyone understands that one needs to BELIEVE and be BAPTIZED fully emersed in JESUS to have the hope of Eternal Salvation when Jesus comes back to claim his followers one day.....obviously if you dont believe in Jesus teachings and that he is God in the flesh then there be no need to be Baptized because you are Damned aIready... I pray you understand what is being said in this chapter and choose Eternal Life with our Savior Jesus Christ...And teach as many soles as you can....Amen

God has love for man kind ,non discriminative and saving all hid creation no matter what happened before Christ came to redeem man kind

This chapter speaks of those who do healing work, in its many forms. Serpents are representative of anyone or anything that would cause harm. Those that do healing work that is based in love and faith, in humility....are protected.

I think it means that every living creature because the lion will lay down with the lamb.

Mark 16 9thru20 most certainly does belong in the Bible. If you can 't trust one word, what makes you think you can trust the rest. What if this gospel stopped with verse 8 like you say? Do you think God would end a gospel which is GOOD NEWS with FOR THEY WERE AFRAID. God hath not given us the spirit of fear!!! Also the book of Mark has 678 verses in it. Omit the last 12 like you say and that leaves 666 verses which is the mark of the beast see Rev 13 16 18. This so called correction just happens to be in the book of MARK. Looks like the Lord is showing the MARK on those who take away from HIS living words Rev 22 vs19. I assume you would like to TAKE that verse as well.

These writings from Mark 16 9 20 are not written by Mark himself. It was inserted in a later time by Catholic Bishops and the beginning of Sun worship on the first day of the week to give validation to their idolatry and mixing in pagan worship with the children of Israel 's Divine scripture. Bringing in cults of raising serpents, as it is in the South to tempt the Most High. As the Council of Nicea shows, which can be read in the History of the First Council of Nice A World 's Christian Convention A.D. 325 With a Life of Constantine book and other sources. Further, to show the falsehoods of Mark 16 9 20, look up the Greek for first day of the week, G3391 G4521. Mia sabbatan from Matthew 28 1 is the correct one while pr 333 ton from Mark 16 9 20 is the deceit that was added later. The new day begins when the Sun goes down, read Genesis 1. Another note, sabbatan is interchangeable with Sabbath and the seventh day of the week, so this is still ON the sabbath going towards Sunday in the final 12 hours before the new day began when the Sun goes down, exposing the lie that Christ rose on Sunday and Sun worship. Last note, the account of the woman who ran and only told Simon Peter and no one else being consistent unlike Mark 16 9 20 where others were told. It is this inconsistent and adding of those who that will get Revelations 22 19.

The Bible says when we are saved we are a new creature in Christ.We are the creature and God is the creator.The gospel needs to be preached to the old creature that they might be saved.The gospel needs to be preached to the new creature to hear the Holy Word of God in it 's Power and Glory to guide us as a lamp unto our feet and light unto our path.To lead and guide us through every day life.To God Be The Glory!

I believe this scripture is telling me to preach the Gospel in all the world that surrounds me. the part of the world God has placed me in. Yes Even to the lost people in my world. I have excess to the internet and I can tell of Jesus there. If My Lord God tells me to go else where then I must needs go where He tells me to go !!! I am to be a witness of my Lord Jesus Christ to all His creation. I am apart of His creation.

We are to remove defeat evil serpents from our lives that we can recognize and if there is unknown evil deadly drink trying to overcome you he will protect you. Your expected as a believer and follower of the lord to stay clear and not invest in anything that doesnt please him, but if anything unexpectedly comes into your life and attempts to take your eyes off the lord he will protect you as his child.
