MARK—NOTE ON Mark 10:21 You lack one thing. The man has replaced trust in God and its reward (treasure in heaven) with trust in earthly riches. He thus fails the first commandment, “You shall have no other gods before me” (Exodus 20:3). This does not mean that every disciple of Christ must sell all that he has; rather, the heart must be focused on God, with every possession available for his use.
