  Hello. Welcome to the No God Coach
• 0:02
  Huddle for May 9th, 2025. Your
• 0:05
  two-minute play of the day for applying
• 0:07
  God's word in your life. So, let's
• 0:09
  huddle up and hear today's play from
• 0:11
  Mark 10, which says, "Why do you call me
• 0:14
  good?" Jesus answered, "No one is good
• 0:16
  except God alone." "Teacher, here you
• 0:18
  declared, "All these things I have kept
• 0:19
  since I was a boy." Jesus looked at him
• 0:22
  and loved him. One thing you lack, he
• 0:24
  said, "Go sell everything you have and
• 0:26
  give to the poor and you'll have
• 0:27
  treasure in heaven. then come follow me.
• 0:30
  At this the man's face fell. He went
• 0:32
  away sad because he had great wealth.
• 0:35
  They replied, "Let one of us sit at your
• 0:37
  right and one at your left in your
• 0:39
  glory." "You don't know what you're
• 0:40
  asking," Jesus said. "Can you drink the
• 0:43
  cup I drink or be baptized with the
• 0:45
  baptism I am baptized with?" "We can,"
• 0:47
  they answered. Jesus said to them, "You
• 0:50
  will drink the cup I drink and be baptis
• 0:53
  baptized with the baptism I am baptized
• 0:55
  with. Not so with you. Instead, whoever
• 0:58
  wants to become great among you must be
• 1:00
  your servant. And whoever wants to be
• 1:02
  first must be slave of all. For even the
• 1:04
  Son of Man did not come to be served,
• 1:06
  but to serve and to give his life as a
• 1:08
  ransom for
• 1:10
  many. A morally good man came to Jesus
• 1:13
  for salvation, but was left spiritually
• 1:15
  bankrupt. He obeyed God's laws, but he
• 1:18
  lacked God's spirit. He appeared to have
• 1:20
  God's blessings, but he didn't have
• 1:22
  God's presence. He was called to commit
• 1:24
  everything to Jesus, but he is only
• 1:26
  willing to commit some things to Jesus.
• 1:28
  And so he left Jesus unsaved, placing
• 1:31
  his eternal soul in jeopardy of the
• 1:34
  fires of hell. Seeing this, excuse me,
• 1:37
  the apostles, sometimes the apostles
• 1:39
  sought prominence because they had
• 1:41
  committed everything to
• 1:43
  Jesus. Yet there was still more to give.
• 1:46
  The baptism and the cup Jesus drank were
• 1:49
  the same. They were the way of suffering
• 1:51
  unto death in obedience to God. The
• 1:54
  apostles would later know this suffering
• 1:56
  unto death for obeying God's command to
• 1:58
  make disciples. They would indeed give
• 2:01
  everything and no doubt their reward is
• 2:03
  great. But perhaps they are not even the
• 2:05
  greatest to have served God. God wants
• 2:08
  more than our goodness. He wants our
• 2:10
  unconditional commitment to him and his
• 2:12
  work of reconciling the world to himself
• 2:15
  through Jesus the Savior. Most of us are
• 2:18
  unwilling to be good. But most of us are
• 2:20
  willing to be good, but we want to be
• 2:23
  blessed in this world. We want to be
• 2:25
  rich. Uh the rich man who is saved.
• 2:28
  Jesus calls us to unconditional
• 2:30
  surrender of all we have and all we want
• 2:33
  in order to do all he has for us to
• 2:36
  accomplish. Then he will reward us on
• 2:39
  his terms and his kingdom which is to
• 2:41
  come and is not yet here. Do we want
• 2:44
  God's eternal reward later than we want
• 2:47
  man's reward now? Are we willing to
• 2:50
  drink Jesus's cup and be baptized with
• 2:52
  his baptism of suffering in order to be
• 2:55
  raised from the dead as good and
• 2:56
  faithful children of God whom the father
• 2:59
  rejoices to reward. The Christian life
• 3:01
  on this earth has nothing to do with the
• 3:03
  world's material gain, but is to be a
• 3:05
  road of suffering for Jesus's name while
• 3:08
  making disciples of all peoples and all
• 3:10
  nations by those who want to live like
• 3:13
  Jesus who is raised King of Kings and
• 3:16
  Lord of Lords. Hurts.
