Mark 9:1

Glory, Unbelief, Suffering, Humility, and Radical Discipleship

Mark 9 moves from the revelation of Jesus' glory on the mountain, to the weakness and unbelief exposed below, to the second passion prediction, to correction of the disciples' ambition and sectarianism, and finally to severe teaching on holiness, stumbling, hell, salt, and peace.
