Bible Note: Thanks MJH, That is great information. These are authors I already know, love and appreciate their Biblical teachings and values. Sometimes we have to put the student in the place of those biblical counterparts in order to understand the nature of what was going on in their worlds and exactly how much they had to suffer for our Saviour. Complacency is all around in our Christian world and churches. It is one thing to wear a cross and another to bear it. My premise for this teaching in Mark is when Jesus asks the disciples to leave their Mothers, Fathers and everything behind to follow Him. What are some other things or people they may have had to leave behind? From studying the life of Mary and Joseph recently, I assumed most young men pursued marriage very young. I need to check it out more thoroughly. Thanks for that challenge too. I should never be that busy to dig a little deeper. Be blessed Angela |
