Intolerance in Mark
- Jesus becomes angry at those who said that he had "an unclean spirit," so he announces the unforgivable sin:
"blasphemy against the Holy Ghost." 3:29
- Any city that doesn't "receive" the followers of Jesus will be destroyed in a manner even more savage than that of
Sodom and Gomorrah. 6:11
- Jesus initially refuses to cast out a devil from a Syrophoenician woman's daughter, calling the woman a "dog".
After much pleading, he finally agrees to cast out the devil. 7:27
- If you're ashamed of Jesus, he'll be ashamed of you. (And you'll go straight to hell.)
8:38
- Jesus says that those that believe and are baptized will be saved, while those who don't
will be damned. 16:16
