You Can't Complete the Commandments | Mark 10:17-31 with Sarah Stenson

A man asks Jesus, "Good Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?"

In this week's podcast episode, what Jesus teaches this man, and what Sarah teaches all of us in this conversation, is how we all have broken the commandments even when we don't think we have. 

Then, we break down the famous verse and just what it means for those of us who haven't sold everything we own: 

It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God. 

Here are the questions Kiri, Adam and Mason ask:

• Is it obvious that we're all sinners?
• Why can't we keep the commandments?
• How are Christians persecuted?
