Mark 9:2-32

I started the SOAP method of Bible study in the middle of Mark and Psalms. I am now going to add my notes from my written journal for the beginning chapters of both books so that the entire books are in this blog.

Scripture

Mark 9:2-32

Prayer

Give me the encouragement I need to grow my faith and gain wisdom and understanding

Summary

• Jesus is transfigured, God speaks to Peter, James, and John telling them to listento Jesus. Key verse v.7 "This is my Son, whom Ilove, Listen to Him!"
• Jesus tells them to say nothing until the Son of Man rises from the dead. They did not know what this meant
• Jesus quotes prophecy saying the Son of Man must suffer much and be rejected
• Key Verse v.23 Jesus says"Everything is possible for him who believes" This was said to the father of the demon possessed boy. The father also asked Jesus to help him overcome his unbelief
• Jesus again tells his disciples what will happen - betrayal, killed, rise after three days. But they do not uderstand

Application
