For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, "Be removed and be cast into the sea,' and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says.

John's baptism--was it from heaven, or from men? Tell me!"
Mark.11.30
The baptism of John--was it from heaven or from men? Answer Me."
Mark.11.30
"Did John's baptism come from heaven or was it merely human? Answer me!"
Mark.11.31
And they reasoned with themselves, saying, If we shall say, From heaven; he will say, Why then did ye not believe him?
Mark.11.31
if we say "humans,' we'll be up against it with the people because they all hold John up as a prophet."
Mark.11.31
They discussed it among themselves and said, "If we say, 'From heaven,' he will ask, 'Then why didn't you believe him?'

Mark.11.32
They decided to concede that round to Jesus. "We don't know," they said. Jesus replied, "Then I won't answer your question either."
Mark.11.32
But if we say, 'From men'...." (They feared the people, for everyone held that John really was a prophet.)
Mark.11.32
But if we say, "From men"'--they feared the people, for all counted John to have been a prophet indeed.
Mark.11.32
But do we dare say it was merely human?" For they were afraid that the people would start a riot, since everyone thought that John was a prophet.
Mark.11.33
And they answered and said unto Jesus, We cannot tell. And Jesus answering saith unto them, Neither do I tell you by what authority I do these things.
Mark.11.33
So they answered Jesus, "We don't know." Jesus said, "Neither will I tell you by what authority I am doing these things."
Mark.11.33
So they answered Jesus, "We don't know." Jesus said, "Neither will I tell you by what authority I am doing these things."
