Mark 9:30-41

Mark 9:30-41 CSB

Then  they left that place and made their way through Galilee, but he did not want anyone to know it.  For he was teaching  his disciples and telling them, “The Son of Man   is going to be betrayed   into the hands of men. They will kill him, and after he is killed, he will rise   three days later.”   But they did not understand this statement, and they were afraid to ask him.  They  came to Capernaum.  When he was in the house,  he asked them, “What were you arguing about on the way? ”   But they were silent,  because on the way they had been arguing with one another about who was the greatest.  Sitting down, he called the Twelve  and said to them, “If anyone wants to be first, he must be last and servant of all.”   He took a child,  had him stand among them, and taking him in his arms, he said to them, “Whoever welcomes   one little child such as this in my name   welcomes me. And whoever welcomes me does not welcome me, but him who sent   me.”   John  said to him, “Teacher,  we saw someone  driving out demons  in your name,  and we tried to stop him because he wasn’t following us.”  “Don’t stop him,” said Jesus, “because there is no one who will perform a miracle   in my name who can soon afterward speak evil of me. For whoever is not against us is for us.   And whoever gives you a cup of water to drink   in my name, because you belong to Christ   #— #truly I tell you,   he will never lose his reward.
