Mark 10:23
King James Version
6 Jun 2026
“And Jesus looked round about, and saith unto his disciples, How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God!”
μαθητής
Not just a follower — a learner who becomes like the teacher. The last command Jesus gives is not go and convert — it is go and make mathetes. People who learn from Me, walk like Me, think like Me, love like Me. The mission is not decisions. It is transformation.
