_________________________________________________
So many people want to read the Bible but don't know how to begin.
It's hard to understand. Things don't make sense.
My plan is to help you change that.
In this series called "Beyond the Words," I'm going to reveal for you the history, context, and other details that will bring scripture to life in an entirely new way, and help you feel like you can understand it as never before.
This week, we're going to look closely at Mark 9. In this chapter, you'll see...
...why the disciples fear Jesus
...why the disciples can't perform a miracle
...why Jesus highlights a small child
...and the real meaning behind Jesus' command to cut off your hands and legs, and gouge out your eyes.
I'm really excited about this series! Thank you so much for taking the time to watch!

The closer I grow in Christ, I see how rotten I truly am and how much I need Him.. truly is King
YOU ARE HIS BELOVED 😊👍🙏
Same here. I always thought I was decent but the more I'm learning, I might well be with murderer etc lot.
Amen. Same. I hate when my pride and lack of love shows itself. Thinking falsely that I am better than someone.
You don't have to live in self pity anymore because Jesus paid the price for you and I a long time ago. That's what it means for your sins to be washed away, god rids us of our filth. Stop focusing on your failures (still repent) but focus on what God called you here for.
I often relate to my namesake, Peter, with his words of, “Depart from me, for I am a sinful man.” Yet, Jesus doesn’t depart, but says, “Don’t be afraid.”
"The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom"
Proverbs 1:17
My kneejerk reaction to the title is, Because Jesus is the Lord God Almighty, and so I came to the comments to see who else had answered the question in the title.
At the Name of Jesus demons tremble. That Name of Jesus brings Jesus’s Attendance to whatever is going on. Those who call upon the Lord shall be saved…..and many more scriptures.
Wow, Brandon - I never saw this before. Moses - the Law, and Elijah - the Prophets, being fulfilled in the person of Jesus. Thank you!
Same here!
Bernadette - You should not believe what others say (do not be deceived). - Even Moses had sinned under the Law and Elijah will return again as a messenger of God.
Fyuse
@@MaryDunford - This man make multiple mistakes in his video.
In 12:01, he quoted verse Mk9:29 - "This kind can come out only by prayer".
Then he went on to say Jesus did not teach them how to pray.
Now let see what the KJV bible speak in verse MK9:29 - And he said unto them, This kind can come forth by nothing, but by prayer and fasting.
Now, you decide for yourself the definition of misinterpreted.
@@gojohnnygo3209yes!! I agree. Check out Charles Lawson temple Baptist church.
Brandon this is the second time I've watched this on Mark 9. I can't say that any of the scripture was a surprise. . . but I can say what you said in discussing the words in the scripture was so eye-opening it brought me to tears.
Your way of teaching is so amazing. Your church is truly blessed to have you as their pastor. Such insight in such a young person.
And if you're not reading a teleprompter you're pretty amazing!
You don't need notes for prayers anymore and someday I hope I don't either.
You've helped me see where I've stumbled and that's the whole point of the series isn't it. Thank you God bless🙏🕊️
It brings me so much joy to hear that, Brenda. I’m so glad God used this to bless you. God continues to open my eyes to the deeper meanings of these scriptures and I’m honored to be able to share with all of you!
God bless!
Blessed beyond measure by this God has really blessed you in teaching. I will watch this a few more times this was so powerful🙏🏽
Thank you, Brandon, for your great explanations!❤
Beautiful prayer. Life gets better when you surrender everything to God. Thank you, Brandon.
Such a deep thought: when did we decide that some things we can handle ourselves? Maybe we feel that it is too insignificant. Let's take up this challenge: let us take everything to Christ.
He is great at explaining the whys of each scriptures. I enjoy listening to him!
You are so needed to teach the word.I am always amazed at the Christian's who don't understand the word and have not been taught. You are teaching and reaching so many. Blessing to you Brandon.
Humility a must in our relationship with Our Lord an Savior!
Wow, this young fellow can talk, praise Jesus .
Thank you again for your prayers. My mom is healed and back to work.
Praise God!
@@BrandonRobbinsMinistry I forget exactly how you worded it with fearing because of not understanding. But is that why the Angel of the Lord always said “don’t be afraid.” or “fear not.”? Because he wanted the person to understand what he was telling them?
Yes indeed, Praise God, I'm filled with joy .... God bless
I wish I could press the like button twice. So deep into God’s word. Amazing video. I am on my first video but I already hit subscribe. Thank you for your ministry
Beautifully explained and I’m only 4:08 minutes in🔥🔥🔥Wisdom is truly given by God(Yahweh) glory be to God for helping you stay obedient and study His word🔥💯🙏🏾
Looking forward to your further exploration of Mark.
I just bought my first Bible along with a gold cross necklace as I begin to find God now that I have become aware of him. I can not feign ignorance before God and so I come before him as a sinner and unclean. So slowly I am making God my life
Meant to write I am 53 and never knew God till now
I believe the reason why the disciples couldn't cast out that demon is because they weren't fasting the Mark 9/29 it says by prayer and fasting but Lots Bibles don't say that
Brandon I wish you would have quoted scripture right because mark 9/29 it doesn't just talk about prayer it talks about fasting fasting is very important and we don't teach enough about it
This brought me to a new understanding of the phrase "in the name of Jesus". May God continue to fill you and empty you in His authority, Pastor Brandon.
So when the Apostles went out 2 x 2, they really weren't healing people or casting out demons - it was Jesus still doing it, but using the Apostles as a proxy.
Once again, Brandon, I am amazed at your ability to give an in depth logic to the Word! Wonderful!!! Could it be that the disciples' fear of Jesus may have been that they were not sure if they could live up to what Jesus wanted them to do? He told them they would suffer for His name's sake. God bless you for your insights!
I love your teachings brother, your words always convict my heart! The Holy spirit directs your lessons, this is quite evident! All Glory to God!
I believe Jesus is my Lord and Savior. Praise His Holy Name💗💗💗💗💗💗💗
I'm so Absolutely convicted right now! Like...I'm literally breathless.
I love that!
Thank you Brandon. 🙏
These words of Yeshua (Jesus) scare me too:
Jesus will vomit you out of His mouth!!!😱
New King James Version Revelation 3:14-22 The Lukewarm Church “And to the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write, ‘These things says the Amen, the Faithful and True Witness, the Beginning of the creation of God: “I know your works, that you are neither cold nor hot. I could wish you were cold or hot. So then, because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will vomit you out of My mouth. Because you say, ‘I am rich, have become wealthy, and have need of nothing’-and do not know that you are wretched, miserable, poor, blind, and naked- I counsel you to buy from Me gold refined in the fire, that you may be rich; and white garments, that you may be clothed, that the shame of your nakedness may not be revealed; and anoint your eyes with eye salve, that you may see. As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten. Therefore be zealous and repent. Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me. To him who overcomes I will grant to sit with Me on My throne, as I also overcame and sat down with My Father on His throne. “He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.”’”

These is deep Brandon! I have listened this probably three times and I'm in tears 😢 while praying with you 🙏.
If we could understand. Thank you as always for the study of the word of God. God bless you and your family 👪 and all the children of God.
Fear comes from not knowing....Jesus will set up kingdom as he sees fit.
I only have one issue with your teachings,I wish they were longer! Could you make CDs or Books with your teachings?And thank u for all your content you are truly a blessing to me and my husband, you and your family are in my prayers.
Thank you so much 😊
I will be coming out with a devotional later this fall. And I have a free book you can download:

Thank you again for your insight and the way you present your message! God bless you Pastor Brandon.
Seek out the Lord diligently and he will succor you. He will make darkness light and crooked things straight. He will work a miracle within you. In Jesus Christ's name. AMEN.
Love it. 🥰 Really like how you use maps and photos etc. to help bring Jesus' story and God's Word to life. Well done.
Thank you for your servers today to our Lord Jesus Christ for Jesus loves you and your family as well as for us all who have been through these times together with you,may our Lord Jesus continue to Bless you and yours now and throughout the years to come., for with Faith in Jesus All things are Possible, Hallelujah praise the Lord Almighty God who giveth to those who love his Son Jesus Christ our Lord., Amen 🙏🏽 Amen m
The insight you so clearly showed me in this video is how much I rely on my own ability - taking a tylenol instead of praying about a headache! Wow. That made so clear to me how easily we rely on our own wisdom, our own solutions in the routines of our days.
Glory to God forever 🙏🙏🙏
Once again you leave me with something to chew on. You bring to light some things that I for sure need to get back to and I know THAT can only be the Holy Spirit moving ❤️
I love the word of God!!! When I discovered your words, I devoured them, they are my joy and hearts delight ....... Jeremiah 15:16. Enjoy your commentary Brandon!
Before this We just came across a guy talking about using the Lords name in vain - saying that vain means to make meaningless or useless - so we are not to make His name meaningless or useless!! Very powerful! And confirmation, He is talking to us about His name! Thankyou Brandon!!! You are in tune! Lol
Brandon, thanks again for the thorough study of Mark 9. I really do appreciate the way that you teach. I liked the John Wesley prayer too. While I hadn't heard that prayer before, it was similar to what I often pray for. I will make sure to share this with my Chosen Deeper Dive group.
Thank You Brandon !!!!! 🙏🏽🙏🏽
I wish to speak about the Disciples and others you tell us about being "terrified". I have found that being "terrified" is rarely about being scared of something. It usually is about having to rectify behaviors we wish to NOT deal with. In other words...in the Disciples reactions to Christ's teachings they "act" as if they don't understand.....it is exactly that. They move the teaching aside. They do not want "to go" to information about their Rabbi's future....to his death or leaving them. I fully understand. I did the same with my parents. So...they were so enamored with all they were learning in the present with their teacher and the miraculous events they were witnessing.....they didn't want these things to be destroyed by the future.
"In my name" in Aramaic is "b'shemi" which is an Aramaic idiom meaning "in my way of doing things" or " in my way of living." It is not an incantation. Pagans believed that if you knew the name of a god you could invoke their power. Modern Christians do this when calling on "Jeeesus" but that is not what he was instructing us to do. When we "pray in his name" it means we pray in the method he prayed. We pray to the same God he prayed to. It doesn't mean we pray to Jesus. And btw, his name in Aramaic is Eshua. Pronounced "Eee-Shoo-wah." But he told us to pray to OUR father in heaven, not 1/3 of himself. And "father" in Aramaic means "beloved." In the Near East it's a term of endearment. ♡ Hope this helps. ✝️
In the NIV it say's that these type only come out through prayer and fasting , I enjoy listening to your ministry
Fasting while I think it has a place. It would seem the KJV and others added the part about fasting. It’s not in the gospel of Mark at all and seems to be added to Matthew. Kenneth S. Wuest in his translation it’s not there. Neither is it in the English Standard Version. Neither is it in the Revised Version. Fasting was common to Jewish people. But I have yet to find a good instruction of what fasting does except for my own experience. All I can offer is that we pray to the Father. Jesus is the Way to the Father. No flesh shall enter heaven. Seeing we are spirit, soul and body, fasting helps suppress the flesh and its appetites and allows our spirit to rise. The Kingdom of Heaven is up but not in the way some suppose. The key is to live our life in a way that our prayed our heard. Nobody wants to encounter someone demon possessed and say oh wait I’ve got to go fast I’ll be back in three days. I’m making light of it but if Jesus isn’t on our mind 24/7 it’s not likely we’re going to get an immediate answer.
“My Father’s house shall be called a house of prayer “
I really try very hard to be pleasing to God, I treat people well and go above and beyond but the more I listen to so many Pastors preaching I feel like I’m not good enough, I’ve got to be very very close to perfect to get into Heaven and I’m very emotional anyway so I pretty much cry every day about this. Jesus has my heart and it’s his home, I don’t know how I can love him anymore than I do. 😢😢😢
I love your commentaries, Brandon
Excellent and true Biblical teaching!!
Thank you, Pastor Robbins!!
In JESUS name amen
Your reflexions help me a lot! I do want to surrender all to Jesus. All for his glory and honor!
Those spirits only come out by prayer AND FASTING which adds to your argument which I believe is true. We need less of this world and religious antics and more of Him
Tylenol vs prayer. All soooo good! Thank you.
I am enjoying the way you are teaching us God's word. Humility it is the only way to come to the Lord but 1st we must believe and have faith. Fearing Jesus because of the power He has is a good reason but when you know Jesus that power it is called Love. He became flesh and suffered, died and resurrected and now we have a helper that can teach us all things. Thank you again for simplifying the Word for our times. God is using you🙏♥️
And Moses show up, so the dead is living, God is the God of the living not the dead, for peoples who think we can't ask the saints to pray for us🙏
Interesting reference to Sirach, which was removed from the KJV.
I am an incessant prayer! Sometimes I have to remind myself that He may want to say!
These videos are so incredibly helpful into understanding the scriptures and the fulfillment of Gods promises/prophesies and our part that we play and how we are living it! Thank you! ❤🙏
All good things come from God! I remember that when I don't hit the poles in my parking spot when I back out! LOL. Thank you my Lord my king my everything for loving me even when I mess up sometimes small and sometimes big time! Oh I need you and everything whether I'm feeling on top of the world or under the weight of it!
Yes i wasn't raised as a Christian. Only went to Sunday church and class. Now that im an adult. I working very hard at learning about the Bible and Jesus. And trying to learn proper ways to pray with out my mind going a stray
Above comment is also mine. Della W
I enjoy your explanation and your videos. You give me the wisdom from God.
Great as always. Wanted to thank you for your book suggestions. I just read Sitting at the feet of Rabbi Jesus and loved it 😍. Understanding 1st century Jewish culture helps so much and draws me closer to scripture and it’s references and significance. Between you and books like this I’m not only seeing things through new eyes but feeling them with a new heart. What you are doing takes things to the level they are meant to be understood and makes such a needed difference.
I was around 12. I think. Yeshua told me "I am here with you." I have never been afraid of Him. Love is not fear. I have nothing but love for Yeshua. Now, for Adonai.. yea, I'm terrified of Him... but I know He loves me. He IS my provider. He IS my help. Period. In Christ, I have YHWH. Period. It's all I need.
How important it is refreshing theology like this!! Thank you Brandon
Sara, sister, Father, we rebuke Satan and all his minions!!! In the mighty name of Jesus, the One and Only Christ!!!! We plead the blood of Jesus over all your children!!!

Wow thank you so glad this popped up on my feed although a put Mathew 9 in the search. This is what the Holy Spirit wanted me to hear 😇❤️❤️🔥
My TILT light just came on. Dated myself, but thank you very much sir!!!
Thank you💕✝️
God is all powerful!!
I always wanted to know how Peter knew Moses and Elijah on sight. It's not like anyone of that time had ever seen either Moses or Elijah, and I don't think that there were baseball trading cards of the two.
It was revealed to him by the Holy Spirit.
@@sidgar1 OH TU
@@sidgar1 didn’t the Holy Spirit come when Jesus went to heaven? Jesus said he would send the Holy Spirit to us to comfort us I thought that’s what I read. But I still have so much to learn. But then again they had the baptism of the Holy Spirit so I don’t know.
@@shootingwithmike6770 the Holy spirit entered them in the book of Acts. Until then, they had limited power to resist sin and every other aspect of obedience. They were literally baptized (emersed) in the Spirit and fire rested upon them in Acts 3.
@@shootingwithmike6770 The Holy Spirit was always present, through eternity. He was sent to live inside of Jesus' followers after Jesus descended into heaven. Jesus said that He will not leave His disciples behind as orphans, for He will ask His Father to send the Holy Spirit to come and live inside of us. To guide , console, teach and convince us of sin.
From then on the disciples will no longer ask Jesus anything. They could only approach His Father in the Name of Jesus. Jesus also said that He (Jesus) will do anything we ask the Father in His (Jesus') Name.
I hope it helps you to understand better.
I pray that you will receive wisdom and understanding in the exciting journey through the Bible and that your understanding will grow beyond your own expectation.
God loves you and He will certainly bless you as you seek His presence.
In the early days I couldn't think of what to pray, so I started by telling Jesus I love him - it was easier after that.
🌹
I am so blessed to be part of these Bible studies
New sub because I want to hear spiritual and biblical truth spoken and I like the “beyond the words” deep dive with Hebrew n Greek meanings of words. Thank you 🙏🏽
Please pray for my daughter's family. She has gone to a dark place. Both of her daughters that she had custody of, are now with their fathers, but in different states. She is obviously confused and thinks she is "finding her True Identity", but is really embracing a very sinful lifestyle, which neither past "Baby daddies" can tolerate. The grand girls are confused and upset. The men, feel used of course. I am heartbroken, as I know how this story will play out....as it has in the past. The 12 yr old grand has decided she has been bi since last year!! The 6 yr old misses her big sister. It's all a mess! Please pray. I worry about the Millstones, as one father embraces paganism, and the other is..."tolerant of the bi-granddaughter". I am heartbroken, to the point I had a heart seizure earlier this summer. Pray!! Please!
It's so hard for me to pray, because there is so much to pray for...the unsaved, the world, the persecuted, protection, finances, peace, needs, my enemies, our government, authorities, etc. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏📖
Thank you Brandon l surrender to Jesus Christ and God bless you
Hey Brandon. I'm a big fan of your videos, keep it up! I'd like to address your comment that we keep learning new things about Jesus in every chapter, and that we can't just infer the rest from an intro. I kind of disagree. I don't know enough about scripture to assert when it was said, but if you truly understand the most basic assertion, it will literally imply everything he does. 1) Reality is like a dream. 2) Though we perceive separate characters, they are all driven by the same dreamer, or God. 3) Jesus is a character, just like all of us, but with direct access to the larger mind. 4) The more attached you are to the material illusion, the more selfish your actions become, and the more you suffer. The more faith you have in our unified eternal consciousness, the more selfless you are, and the closer you will be to Heaven.
I could boil this down more, but it's a modern simplification of the ideas Jesus spread, and EVERY SINGLE ACTION he took can be anticipated, if you truly understand the larger truth. Jesus isn't afraid of death, because death is part of the dream. He doesn't judge or hate others, because they're all just him in a different skin suit, having a unique experience. He can affect any change simply by knowing it's a dream and believing he can. For the rest of us who actually think it's real, we must have faith in his assurances in order to gain the same control. ie: "This mountain will crumble if I raise my hand, because Jesus said it would." The world reflects our beliefs, and if we can't convince ourselves it's a dream, then we can at least convince ourselves that Jesus grants us authority to change things. I could go on forever. Nothing Jesus did is a surprise if you understand what he knows. We are one, living in an eternal dream, believing we're separate, and being tested to prioritize the whole over the individual. God is omnipresent, omnipotent, and omniscient because he is the mind that is manifesting all of reality and awareness within it. He is each of us. Another word for the dream is "God's Image." We were made within the "Image" or "Imagination" of God.
Thank you Brandon for your indepth explanations making it so much easier to understand scripture.. I love them. God bless you 🙏🛐🇮🇳
When I believe I have something under control I see God smiling. A later statement makes it very clear when Jesus says: Without Me you can do nothing. What a great reminder of who has control.
This channel is a blessing!
Thank you for these videos. I am learning so much. May God bless you on this ministry. I am looking forward to more.
Mar 9:29 And he said unto them, This kind can come forth by nothing, but by prayer and fasting.
Really appreciate your insight and sharing with 🇺🇸
Lord teach us to pray
Thankyou and Amen.
Well executed. Thank you.
Excellent!!!
Such a great message Brandon! Thank you
Good video tyvm
Great lesson brother. Thank you for these.
I needed this! Thank you❤
I really enjoy this lessons and prayers. I have learned a lot.
Thank you.
Glad I found ur channel thanks I needed this
Bravo. I receive this with gratitude.
Thank you Brandon for your help in our understanding.
That…was amazing. PTL
Thank you. I really need this right now, in a hard place.
Thank you brother
Thank you for this insight. I appreciate your sessions. I look forward to them. May God continue to bless you.
Wow! When you talk about the collectivist culture that was instilled in them, a lot of the O.T. made sense to me. In the Levitical law, it was clear that sin is a cancer and contagious, this is why God said to remove these people. We know that sin entangles and will hook others to their downfall and/or perdition. God, the Perfect Father was merely protecting His Own--these punishments have been deemed as "harsh, mean" and even "evil", but any parent would do what it took to protect their children.
It makes sense that by Jesus' time, the collective culture was well established, and what affects one, it will have a ripple effect and affect others--even society! It has ramifications. Great video and I learned a LOT; praise God for opening my eyes. Your vid has been a blessing to me. God's peace and joy be w/you and yours.
Shalom
Really appreciate your teachings I am 84 years old and just during the past few years have i felt i need to better understand the scriptures and the purpose of the rest of my life. Thankyou for your insight
Very good message
God bless you 🙏 ❤
Thanks for your teaching . Please note that the photo you posted of Mount Hermon is actually Mount Tabor in the Jezreel Valley, the other possible site of the transfiguration.
Mount Hermon looks quite different.
