When we left off in Mark’s Gospel, Jesus had silenced His questioners and He had told this last one in particular that he was not far from the Kingdom of God. We brought out at that time that, “To be ‘in the kingdom’ one must do more than simply approve of Jesus’ teaching; one must submit entirely to His authority and person. We are not told what became of this last questioner. So, a question which lingers in my mind is, ‘Did he make the next step and accept Jesus as the Son of David and David’s Lord?’”[1]
He had the knowledge. He had some level of agreement. Did he trust Jesus as the Son of David, yet Jesus as the Lord of David? This is what we will be considering today.
