Insight from Mark 9:30\u201350:<\/p>\n
It is worth asking why Jesus keeps emphasizing his suffering, death, and resurrection, even though his Apostles don\u2019t seem to be able to understand what he is talking about. By talking about his death and resurrection before these events happen, Jesus proves that none of the things that happen to him are an accident. Beyond this, the day comes when the Apostles do understand Jesus\u2019 teachings about his suffering, death, and resurrection. This happens after his resurrection. At that time, they remember everything Jesus has ever taught them: \u201cThese things I have spoken to you while I am still with you. But the helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you\u201d ( John 14:25-26). None of Jesus\u2019 teachings are wasted! The Apostles eventually come to understand them all! They, through their writings, pass Jesus\u2019 teachings on to the church!<\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"give_campaign_id":0,"_seopress_robots_primary_cat":"","_seopress_titles_title":"","_seopress_titles_desc":"","_seopress_robots_index":"","_crdt_document":""},"class_list":["post-4506","reading-plan","type-reading-plan","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/handstotheplow.org\/am\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/reading-plan\/4506","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/handstotheplow.org\/am\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/reading-plan"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/handstotheplow.org\/am\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/reading-plan"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/handstotheplow.org\/am\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4506"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
