Transcripción
00:07How are you? Welcome to the Synoptic Gospels class. Today we'll be looking at the second part of the
00:13Gospel of Mark, Jesus, Son of God. We had left off with Peter, in the name of
00:21The entire group proclaims Jesus' identity as the Messiah. This marks the culmination of the first great [event/sequence/etc.].
00:29block of the structure of this Gospel and begins the second major block or stage.
00:37This second stage, the repeated question of Jesus' identity, "Who is this?" will yield
00:45The correct answer. Jesus will reveal himself as the suffering Messiah and Son of God. He is the
00:54sent by God to lead his people to the promised and awaited salvation. In this
01:01This stage depicts Jesus' journey to Judea and Jerusalem and consists of three sections.
01:10The first of these is the revelation of Jesus as the suffering Messiah, which we find in the
01:16Chapter 8, verse 31 to Chapter 10, verse 52. In this section we will see that Jesus will dedicate himself with
01:27greater intensity in training their disciples to understand that passion is necessary to succeed
01:36to glory and will announce his passion three times. In chapter 10 we will find teachings about life
01:45of the Christian in relation to marriage, discipleship, poverty, etc. In the second
01:54We will see the revelation of his authority, that is, the authority of Jesus. Where do we find this?
02:02section? In chapter 11, verse 1 to chapter 13, verse 37. This new section is developed in the
02:11City of David, that is, in Jerusalem, also in its temple. There we will find a series of
02:19symbolic actions, controversies, and eschatological discourse. Finally, the third section deals with
02:29about the account of the passion, death, and resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ, which we find in the
02:37Chapters 14 through 16. All of the above, brothers, has been intended to lead us
02:46Up to this moment, the moment of passion, death, and resurrection. This is not a simple chronicle.
02:54historical, but from the evangelist's constant concern to show us the true
03:02identity of Jesus. Furthermore, Saint Mark wants to lead us on this journey to adhere to Jesus.
03:10Let us begin, then, to look at this first section in which, first of all, Jesus begins to reveal himself
03:18like that suffering servant. In chapter 8, verses 31-950, we see how Jesus is preparing his disciples.
03:29disciples for the event of the cross. How does he prepare them? With his words, with his actions and
03:40He is showing them the path they should follow. Among his disciples, he will share with them
03:49especially with Peter, James, and John. That is, with three of them, and these will become
03:58in witnesses of crucial moments in the life and ministry of Jesus, what is the agony like in the
04:05The Garden of Gethsemane. And they will also share in a foretaste of his glory at that moment.
04:14of the Transfiguration. Let us look at the first announcement of his passion and resurrection. We find this in
04:23Mark 8, verse 31. I invite you to read it. Jesus began to teach them that the Son of Man would have
04:32that he would suffer greatly and be rejected by the elders, the chief priests, and the
04:39teachers of the law. He told them that they were going to kill him, but that he would rise again after three days. Here they
04:48let's see
04:49What is messianism about? and uses the title from Daniel, chapter 7, verse 13 to 14.
04:58The Son of Man, who expresses both exaltation and humiliation.
05:06Peter, we see, rejects the suffering messianism and wants to thwart God's path,
05:12as the devil did earlier in the temptations. But we will see how little by little
05:19He will understand, just like everyone else.
05:24To move forward in the text, you have to point something out. After each ad, we said there are three
05:33Advertisements, we will realize that there is one or more teachings of Jesus for his disciples.
05:41In this first announcement, Jesus takes the opportunity to give them a series of instructions about his
05:49Follow-up. Let's read the following. See verse 34 of this same chapter 8.
06:11The conditions proposed by Jesus are not only for his disciples, but also an invitation
06:21It is for those who do not yet follow him and those who are already his disciples, of course, and also for
06:29us.
06:30This makes us think that we are all invited to become true disciples.
06:38It will always be an open invitation, brothers, but coupled with this invitation is the personal decision to carry the cross.
06:51Many times our spiritual director, Father Ernesto María Caro, has spoken to us about how the cross means
07:00to be crucified with Christ. But what is it that we crucify?
07:05Everything we want to die within ourselves. It means sacrificing our pleasures, people, ideas, ideologies, and so on.
07:18In short, everything that separates us from God. I remember once when I started studying the Bible, when someone told me,
07:28Hey, you have to carry the cross. I said, what does carrying the cross mean? And I quickly went online and one
07:38of the examples I found
07:40It was next. A married man, renouncing that temptation that presents itself to him at work.
07:50If a female colleague makes advances towards her and she rejects them, she has to put up with what her male colleagues will say to her.
08:00What do you mean you wasted that opportunity? Well, yes, it's about dying to our desires and suffering persecution.
08:10In this case, it is the will of his companions who do not understand the will of God, but rather that of the world.
08:17And they will be rejecting him from their social circle for not fitting into that very worldly lifestyle.
08:24If you look closely, this example allows us to realize that carrying the cross is about dying in the
08:34day by day.
08:34How? By making eternal decisions based on a question.
08:43Which question? Am I moving closer to or further away from the cross?
08:50Brother, what cross do you have to bear to die crucified in Christ?
08:58The answer lies in this: understanding what the cross is.
09:04Christ was crucified for our sins.
09:09So, it's about nailing to it that which is sin or that which might be causing me to fall
09:18in sin.
09:19A very similar example applies to men, as you might always be talking to a girl at work.
09:28pleasantly
09:29And suddenly things are about to lead you to take a false step, but you decide not to.
09:37Or a couple who decide not to have premarital sex.
09:43Or someone who is about to steal and decides not to.
09:48Those are the moments of crucifying ourselves, of crucifying ourselves by saying no.
09:56No, they are acts of decision made based on what the word says.
10:03And what's that going to cost you?
10:06Well, maybe they'll make fun of you, say a lot of things, or not understand what you're doing.
10:14And maybe you're losing a lot, but brother, you gain so much more.
10:23By crucifying ourselves to the world, we are laying up treasure in heaven.
10:30How about we continue walking with Jesus and his disciples through these stories?
10:38Letting the word challenge us?
10:41Don't just rely on the examples I could give you, but go and read and visualize.
10:49your life,
10:49Reflect on your experiences, compare the times you have crucified yourself, so that what you are hearing truly resonates with you.
11:01Furthermore.
11:02Maybe there are things you've thought, 'Oh, I should quit this,' but you haven't.
11:08Think about it, reflect on this, because when they crucify us, you know what?
11:15There is always a greater good. Do you know what it is? Life in Christ.
11:22Think about your life, then, what things have you crucified or what things should you still crucify?
11:31As I mentioned, people, friends, maybe even relatives, ideas, pleasures, vices, addictions, etc.
11:41Let us continue, then, with the story, and the scripture tells us that six days later Jesus went to a hill
11:49high
11:49taking only Peter, James, and John.
11:54There, in front of them, Jesus' appearance changed; that is, he was transfigured.
12:03Once again we find those three special witnesses of the resurrection of Jairus' daughter: Peter, James, and John.
12:12who will also accompany him, as I told you, in Gethsemane.
12:17This account of the transfiguration, like that of the baptism, is a theophany, that is, a manifestation of the Lord.
12:28What is the difference with the baptism story?
12:32Well, in the baptism, in this case from the Gospel of Mark, God the Father addresses only Jesus, calling him
12:42the Beloved Son.
12:43Now, here He is addressing everyone, including those three who are with Him, to confirm that He is the Son
12:52of God.
12:52In other words, he is confirming his identity and reiterating what Jesus had already taught them.
13:01that to reach glory, the path of death is necessary.
13:07In other words, he is confirming their fate.
13:12The same path that should be followed by everyone who has chosen the way of the Son of Man.
13:19Let us read Romans 8:18.
13:22In it, Paul tells us the following.
13:26I consider that the sufferings of this present time are nothing compared to the glory that we shall see.
13:34after.
13:35We can see how Saint Paul clearly understood that to reach glory one must remember the path
13:45What leads to it is suffering,
13:49because glory is only attained by giving one's life.
13:54We have already spoken of what it means to die to the world and to recognize, as Saint John says, that here we are.
14:01But we do not belong to the world.
14:04You can read this in chapter 15 of his gospel.
14:09So, to aspire to glory, I must let go and die to what binds me to the world.
14:18What binds you?
14:20What prevents you from already participating in this little piece of heaven like the one Santiago, Pedro, and Juan were able to experience?
14:29Because without a doubt, dying gives us freedom and fulfillment.
14:34Brother, be transformed along with Jesus and start enjoying the kingdom from today.
14:42He showed them what would come next.
14:46Imagine, he had just announced to them that he had to die, suffer, and then be resurrected.
14:54And it was as if God the Father said, well, so that they understand, let's show them the glory.
15:00And he makes them participants in that transfiguration.
15:04So it's clear, brother, what comes after the way of the cross is glory.
15:12That's what he wants you to understand too.
15:15That after that path of sacrifice, which can be a great or small sacrifice,
15:23That glory is coming, there is a reward.
15:26But you need to be transformed.
15:32After this experience, Jesus asks them not to tell anything until he has risen from the dead.
15:39That's all for now.
15:42I'll be waiting for you shortly to talk about the second announcement of the passion.
15:49See you in a moment.
16:18Thank you!
16:21Thank you!
16:22Thank you!
16:22Thank you!
