Mark 10: 17-30 - 'Give everything you own to the poor, and follow me.'
Catechism of the Catholic Church Paragraphs:
- 1858 (in 'The Gravity of Sin: Mortal and Venial Sin') - Grave matter is specified by the Ten Commandments, corresponding to the answer of Jesus to the rich young man: "Do not kill, Do not commit adultery, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Do not defraud, Honor your father and your mother." The gravity of sins is more or less great: murder is graver than theft. One must also take into account who is wronged: violence against parents is in itself graver than violence against a stranger.
- 2728 (in 'Objections to Prayer') - Finally, our battle has to confront what we experience as failure in prayer: discouragement during periods of dryness; sadness that, because we have "great possessions," we have not given all to the Lord; disappointment over not being heard according to our own will; wounded pride, stiffened by the indignity that is ours as sinners; our resistance to the idea that prayer is a free and unmerited gift; and so forth. the conclusion is always the same: what good does it do to pray? To overcome these obstacles, we must battle to gain humility, trust, and perseverance.
- 1618 (in 'Virginity for the Sake of the Kingdom') - Christ is the center of all Christian life. the bond with him takes precedence over all other bonds, familial or social. From the very beginning of the Church there have been men and women who have renounced the great good of marriage to follow the Lamb wherever he goes, to be intent on the things of the Lord, to seek to please him, and to go out to meet the Bridegroom who is coming (abbreviated).

0:00.0 | Hi everyone. Welcome back to Logical Bible Study where we do a verse by verse exegesis of the scriptures. |
0:17.1 | So let's get straight into today's reading. It's a long one. Mark, chapter 10, verses 17 to 30. |
0:24.3 | Jesus was setting out on a journey when a man ran up, knelt before him and put this question to him. |
0:30.9 | Good master, what must I do to inherit eternal life? |
0:35.5 | Jesus said to him, why do you call me good? No one is good but God alone. |
0:40.3 | You know the commandments. You must not kill, you must not commit adultery, you must not steal, |
0:48.3 | you must not bring false witness, you must not defraud, honour your father and mother. |
1:00.1 | And he said to him, Master, I have kept all these things from my earliest days. |
1:03.9 | Jesus looked steadily at him and loved him. |
1:07.8 | And he said, there is one thing you lack. |
1:13.5 | Go and sell everything you own and give the money to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then, come, follow me. But his face fell at these words, and he went away sad, |
1:22.0 | for he was a man of great wealth. Jesus looked around and said to his disciples, how hard it is for those who have riches to |
1:30.8 | enter the kingdom of God. The disciples were astounded by these words, but Jesus insisted, |
1:37.1 | My children, he said to them, how hard it is to enter the kingdom of God. It is easier for a camel |
1:44.0 | to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God. It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle |
1:45.9 | than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God. They were more astonished than ever. In that case, |
1:54.3 | they said to one another, who can be saved? Jesus gazed at them. For men, he said, it is impossible, but not for God, because everything is possible for God. |
2:07.4 | At that time, Peter began to tell Jesus, what about us? |
2:11.8 | We have left everything and followed you. |
2:14.9 | Jesus said, I tell you solemnly, there is no one who is left house, brothers, |
2:21.7 | sisters, father, children or land for my sake, and for the sake of the gospel, who will not be |
2:29.1 | repaid a hundred times over. Houses, brothers, sisters, mothers, children and land, not without persecutions, |
