Did Jesus ever say no to people
Answers:
A:
Yes. According to Mark chapter 7, a Gentile woman asked him to help her daughter. Jesus refused, calling Gentiles 'dogs' but relented and agreed to help the woman when she humbly accepted that description.Another Answer
No. The Scholars of the New King James Version of the Bible concur that the above event was in fact a test of the Samaritan woman's faith (besides a metaphor of the time indicating Jesus' priority of coming to the Jews first). Continuing on to the end of the verse will reveal the answering of the mother's request and the statement of her great faith.
