Mark 11:27-33
Jesus and his disciples returned once more to Jerusalem.
As he was walking in the temple area,
the chief priests, the scribes, and the elders
approached him and said to him,
โBy what authority are you doing these things?
Or who gave you this authority to do them?โ
Jesus said to them, โI shall ask you one question.
Answer me, and I will tell you by what authority I do these things.
Was Johnโs baptism of heavenly or of human origin? Answer me.โ
They discussed this among themselves and said,
โIf we say, โOf heavenly origin,โ he will say,
โThen why did you not believe him?โ
But shall we say, โOf human originโ?โโ
they feared the crowd,
for they all thought John really was a prophet.
So they said to Jesus in reply, โWe do not know.โ
Then Jesus said to them,
โNeither shall I tell you by what authority I do these things.โโ๏ธ๐๐๏ธ

Mark 11:11-26
Jesus entered Jerusalem and went into the temple area.
He looked around at everything and, since it was already late,
went out to Bethany with the Twelve.
The next day as they were leaving Bethany he was hungry.
Seeing from a distance a fig tree in leaf,
he went over to see if he could find anything on it.
When he reached it he found nothing but leaves;
it was not the time for figs.
And he said to it in reply, โMay no one ever eat of your fruit again!โ
And his disciples heard it.
They came to Jerusalem,
and on entering the temple area
he began to drive out those selling and buying there.
He overturned the tables of the money changers
and the seats of those who were selling doves.
He did not permit anyone to carry anything through the temple area.
Then he taught them saying, โIs it not written:
My house shall be called a house of prayer for all peoples?
But you have made it a den of thieves.โ
The chief priests and the scribes came to hear of it
and were seeking a way to put him to death,
yet they feared him
because the whole crowd was astonished at his teaching.
When evening came, they went out of the city.
Early in the morning, as they were walking along,
they saw the fig tree withered to its roots.
Peter remembered and said to him, โRabbi, look!
The fig tree that you cursed has withered.โ
Jesus said to them in reply, โHave faith in God.
Amen, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain,
โBe lifted up and thrown into the sea,โ
and does not doubt in his heart
but believes that what he says will happen,
it shall be done for him.
Therefore I tell you, all that you ask for in prayer,
believe that you will receive it and it shall be yours.
When you stand to pray,
forgive anyone against whom you have a grievance,
so that your heavenly Father may in turn
forgive you your transgressions.โโ๏ธ๐๐๏ธ
Nice work if you can get it!๐

Mark 10:46-52
As Jesus was leaving Jericho with his disciples and a sizable crowd,
Bartimaeus, a blind man, the son of Timaeus,
sat by the roadside begging.
On hearing that it was Jesus of Nazareth,
he began to cry out and say,
โJesus, son of David, have pity on me.โ
And many rebuked him, telling him to be silent.
But he kept calling out all the more, โSon of David, have pity on me.โ
Jesus stopped and said, โCall him.โ
So they called the blind man, saying to him,
โTake courage; get up, Jesus is calling you.โ
He threw aside his cloak, sprang up, and came to Jesus.
Jesus said to him in reply, โWhat do you want me to do for you?โ
The blind man replied to him, โMaster, I want to see.โ
Jesus told him, โGo your way; your faith has saved you.โ
Immediately he received his sight
and followed him on the way.โ๏ธ๐๐๏ธ

Mark 10:32-45
The disciples were on the way, going up to Jerusalem,
and Jesus went ahead of them.
They were amazed, and those who followed were afraid.
Taking the Twelve aside again, he began to tell them
what was going to happen to him.
"Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man
will be handed over to the chief priests and the scribes,
and they will condemn him to death
and hand him over to the Gentiles who will mock him,
spit upon him, scourge him, and put him to death,
but after three days he will rise."
Then James and John, the sons of Zebedee,
came to Jesus and said to him,
"Teacher, we want you to do for us whatever we ask of you."
He replied, "What do you wish me to do for you?"
They answered him,
"Grant that in your glory
we may sit one at your right and the other at your left."
Jesus said to them, "You do not know what you are asking.
Can you drink the chalice that I drink
or be baptized with the baptism with which I am baptized?"
They said to him, "We can."
Jesus said to them, "The chalice that I drink, you will drink,
and with the baptism with which I am baptized, you will be baptized;
but to sit at my right or at my left is not mine to give
but is for those for whom it has been prepared."
When the ten heard this, they became indignant at James and John.
Jesus summoned them and said to them,
"You know that those who are recognized as rulers over the Gentiles
lord it over them,
and their great ones make their authority over them felt.
But it shall not be so among you.
Rather, whoever wishes to be great among you will be your servant;
whoever wishes to be first among you will be the slave of all.
For the Son of Man did not come to be served but to serve
and to give his life as a ransom for many."โ๏ธ๐๐๏ธ
