And He Began to Teach Them

We are at the turning point in the book of Mark. From this point on, the relationship between the disciples and Jesus is drastically different. Jesus asks them a question, and it’s a question that we all have to answer. He asks them, "Who do you say that I am?" And Peter’s answer brought their relationship to a new intimacy that they had not experienced to this point. When Peter confesses that Jesus is the Christ, the text says that "He began to teach them." Now, Jesus is going to speak plainly about His mission—that He has come to suffer and die. Jesus is the Messiah who will lay down His life for our sins. Visit us online at: www.RenewalChurch.net
