During our current sermon series, we've come to the section in Mark where Jesus explicitly reveals that his messianic mission was to suffer and die and be resurrected (8:34-35, 9:30-32, 10:32-34). His disciples couldn't wrap their minds around this and similarly, his opponents were rejecting him every step of the way as He presented himself as the true Messiah.
His mission to become the one true Sacrifice for our sins was in many ways a mystery and a secret.
I referenced the following old-school song by Michael W. Smith last week because it fits perfectly with what Mark records in the middle of his gospel. Enjoy this late 80's/early 90's production as a bonus music selection this week:
