3. Jesus asked his disciples, „Who do
people say that I am?‟ …Peter
answered him, „You are the Messiah
(Xristos).‟ And he sternly ordered them
not to tell anyone about him.
Mark 8:27-30

4. “Then he began to teach them that the Son of
Man must undergo great suffering, and be
rejected by the elders, the chief priests, and the
scribes, and be killed,
and after three days rise
again. He said all this
quite openly. And Peter
took him aside and
began to rebuke him.”
Mark 8:27-30

5. Mark 8:27-30

6. “In my vision at night I looked, and
there before me was one like a son of
man, coming with the clouds of
heaven.” Daniel 7:13

7. “Never before
this moment
had anyone
in Israel ever
connected
suffering with
the messiah.”
Tim Keller

8. “I could accept Jesus as a martyr, an
embodiment of sacrifice, and a divine
teacher. His death
on the cross was a
great example to the
world, BUT that there
was anything like a
mysterious or
miraculous virtue in
it, my heart could
not accept.”
Gandhi

11. “If any want to become my followers, let them
deny themselves and take up their cross and
follow me. For those
who want to save
their life will lose it,
and those who lose
their life for my sake,
and for the sake of
the gospel, will save it.”
Mark 8:34-35

12. “Give up yourself, and you will find your
real self. Lose your life and you will save it.
Submit to death, death of your ambitions
and favourite wishes. Keep back nothing.
Nothing that you have not given away will
be really yours. Nothing in you that has not
died will ever be raised from the dead. Look
for yourself, and you will find in the long run
only hatred, loneliness, despair, rage, ruin,
and decay. But look for Christ and you will
find Him, and with Him everything else
thrown in.”
C. S. Lewis
