Bible Note: Jesus was talking about "taking up the cross and following Him" unto physical death in Mark 8:38. He is not here talking about dying in order to become "new creatures"; but to show they are "worthy of Him." They must be new creatures to begin with before they can die for Christ. Lastday |
