And he sighed deeply in his spirit and said,
“Why does this generation seek a sign?
Mark 8:12
“But for what sign from heaven were they asking?
Maybe that He should hold back the sun,
or curb the moon,
or bring down thunderbolts,
or change the direction of the wind,
or something like that?

from whom deliverance was needed.
But for one who comes among friends,
there should be no need of such signs.”

“You also are blessed,
because you have heard and believed.
A soul that believes, both conceives

but we all bring forth Christ, in faith.”
