The Beginning of the Gospel

The Gospel of Mark, Sabbath School lesson for the third quarter written by Thomas R. Shepherd, PhD, DrP"H
"From the beginning of Mark, the reader knows who Jesus is-the Messiah, the Son of God (Mark 1:1). However, people in the story struggle with understanding just who He is and what He is all about.
It is a most remarkable story, told in a terse, fast-moving style with little commentary from the Gospel writer himself. He simply tells the story, and then lets the words, the deeds, the actions speak for themselves regarding the life and death of Jesus of Nazareth."
