Mark 6:4-6

Jesus could accomplish little because of the peoples lack of faith. Did He give up? No, Jesus taught. Jesus didn’t give up when His miracles were rejected... He just went elsewhere to whoever would listen to His message of  hope and salvation. We do the same when we share the gospel with others! It is up to the Holy Spirit to open hearts and minds and Jesus is our example of how to spread the message without violating the free will of others! God loves everyone and wants no one to perish but He desires a mutual relationship where love freely flows by choice. Our job is make others aware of His love given in Christ Jesus :)

A prophet is not without honor except in his own country is a maxim still repeated and still true today. Perhaps others were jealous of Jesus’ popularity and huge following. Their envy even took the form of violence against Christ.

Mark 6:4-6
⁴ But Jesus said to them, “A prophet is not without honor except in his own country, among his own relatives, and in his own house.” ⁵ Now He could do no mighty work there, except that He laid His hands on a few sick people and healed them. ⁶ And He marveled because of their unbelief. Then He went about the villages in a circuit, teaching. 

Romans 1:16-17
¹⁶ For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and also for the Greek. ¹⁷ For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, “The just shall live by faith.”
