Huge dilemma!!
As for the staff.....
Mark and Luke have an argument about scripture. To journey with a staff or with no staff..
What would happen if god came down? Behold! God came down from the heavens. He takes the staff, breaks it in two, gives one half to Mark and the other half to Luke.
''Now you shall have a staff, and yet you shall
not have it'' god said. Mark receives his part and Luke the other part. They shaked each other's hand and went separate ways, spreading the gospel.
Years later they return to the place, to mark their unity and and share in their journeys. Both men had their group of followers with them, spreading the news of god and the revelation of the staff. But Mark was a bit shocked by Luke's staff. ''How can you be so callous? The staff god gave you is a mess. Why don't you clean it?'' to which Luke replies, ''I keep it as god intended it. This is the part I was given''. Mark did not understand. All this time, he kept his staff clean. He honoured god by keeping the staff clean, and here was this man, thinking he could make a mockery of god almighty! ''You are a disgrace!'' he shouted, to which Luke replied ''..but mine's bigger than yours anyway!''
Mark and Luke, and their followers would get into more heated arguments and soon went their separate ways again...
''Now you shall have a staff, and yet you shall not have it''
