Mark 7

Mark7:36"And He gave them orders not to tell anyone; but the more He ordered them, the more widely they continued to proclaim it."

When there's real power demonstrated, there's no need for advertising and promoting.

Mark7:1-23
Men always try to rationalise God. They always want to make a tradition and then act from that tradition rather than God's living word.
Like Reinhard Bonnke's example, we try to put God in one room and have the rest of the house free to ourselves.
But God is a living God, He's not some dead theory or tradition that can't be changed. He's sick of being restricted into a box and He wants to be free!

Mark7:24-30
We're all given a certain amount of grace. But some people can argue with God and they're really good at bargain and can get a better deal. God really responds to faith well.
