Mark 3:20-21....the simplicity of the Gospel saves!

If you choose to live God’s way, putting Him first in your life, loving all of His creation and respecting everything that His hand made…..others will question you…. thinking that you are looking through rose colored glasses and are out of touch with reality….L.O.V.E. and R.E.S.P.E.C.T. anyway! 

What possible thing do you gain if you please the world and lose out on salvation. For God so loved the world that HE sent His only begotten Son to save all of US who choose to accept His gift.

Without  love we  just  make  noise!

Opposition to Jesus came not only from His enemies. Jesus’ own people, no doubt close friends and perhaps even relatives, heard of His teaching and assumed that He was out of His mind.

Mark 3:20-21
20 Then the multitude came together again, so that they could not so much as eat bread. 21 But when His own people heard about this, they went out to lay hold of Him, for they said, “He is out of His mind.”

8I have become a stranger to my brothers, And an alien to my mother’s children; 
Psalm 69:8


55 Is this not the carpenter’s son? Is not His mother called Mary? And His brothers James, Joses, Simon, and Judas? 
Matthew 13:55

For even His brothers did not believe in Him. 
John 7:5


24 Now as he thus made his defense, Festus said with a loud voice, “Paul, you are beside yourself! Much learning is driving you mad!” 
Acts 26:24


13 For if we are beside ourselves, it is for God; or if we are of sound mind, it is for you. 
2 Corinthians 5:13
