Expository Thoughts on the Gospels: Mark (lightly modernized text, Grace Gems edition) (1857)

We see in these verses, the mind of Christ on the great subject of TOLERATION in religion . The apostle John said to Jesus, "Teacher, we saw a man using your name to cast out demons, but we told him to stop because he isn't one of our group." The man was doing a good work without doubt. He was warring on the same side as the apostles, beyond question. But this did not satisfy John. He did not work in the company of the apostles. He did not fight in line with them. And therefore John had opposed him.
