Pastor Lowell Nelson teaches about Mark 7:31-37 "Be Opened" on 12/28/2025 for our Sunday Morning service.
Mark 7:31-37
32 Then they brought to Him one who was deaf and had an impediment in his speech, and they begged Him to put His hand on him.
33 And He took him aside from the multitude, and put His fingers in his ears, and He spat and touched his tongue.
34 Then, looking up to heaven, He sighed, and said to him, “Ephphatha,” that is, “Be opened.”
35 Immediately his ears were opened, and the impediment of his tongue was loosed, and he spoke plainly.
Join us as we continue to see the authentication of Jesus’s authority and identity as Jesus, while still in Gentile territory, shows through the healing of deaf man with a speech impediment that He is the Messiah Isaiah said would come.
"Be Opened." In this passage, ears were opened to hear. A mouth was opened to speak. However, hearts were not opened to obey.
