Remain in me, and I in you. Just as a branch is unable to produce fruit by itself unless it remains on the vine, neither can you unless you remain in me. I am the vine; you are the branches. The one who remains in me and I in him produces much fruit, because you can do nothing without me. -Jesus
Jesus said, "If anyone wants to follow after me, let him deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me." Mark 9 continues to show us what this looks like.

Are you ready for some challenges and compete? You might need this: https://discord.gg/JJtGsxCG Why were the teachings of Jesus sometimes ineffective?

Blessings!
As we listen to the words of Jesus, what is our responsibility? Why did the teaching of Jesus fail to produce fruit? What surprises Jesus? All this in Mark 3. Come listen with us!
Why does Jesus speak like this? He is blaspheming! Who can forgive sins but God alone? Why does he eat with tax collectors and sinners? Why do John's disciples and the Pharisees' disciples fast, but your disciples do not fast? Why are they doing what is not lawful on the Sabbath? Take a break from looking at your screens and find out what Jesus answers in the second chapter of the gospel of Mark.
