Jesus Asks Who Am I- Mark 8:27-38

Jesus poses the ultimate question
who do people say that I really am?
many answers given but Peter knew
Christ, you are as John said God's lamb

Jesus then begins to teach His disciples
that much suffering would come His way
He would be killed but three days later
would rise from the dead this He did say

Jesus saw that Peter didn't like this
and addresses him as Satan for a rebuke
for Peter had thought only as a man
not on heavenly things as Peter later forsook

Jesus then challenged all who were there
to deny themselves to follow His Calvary road
take up HIs cross wherever it may lead
save their lives and drop their sinful load

Jesus said no profit to gain all the world
if after that you have lost your soul
your souls the most important possession
losing it and you're on the hellward roll
