God Quote-Jesus Predicts His Death and Resurrection

JOHN SHIRK – In the Year of God’s Word, this is what the Lord says in Mark 9:31.

Jesus made this statement to His disciples: “The Son of Man is going to be delivered into the hands of men. They will kill him, and after three days he will rise.”

The disciples did not understand what he meant and were afraid to ask him about it. Sometimes, Jesus might say some things that we don’t completely understand or may be uncomfortable for us to hear. But He has a reason for what He says.

In this case, Jesus was preparing His disciples for future events that would shake their world. They would grieve for a short time, but they would rejoice again when He rose from the dead.

Jesus knew His mission and was willing to go to the cross, because of His great love for us.

Mark 9:31-that’s Today’s God Quote for us to embrace for life.
