Does the gospel of Mark say Jesus is God? - Analyzing Mark 1:1

The Brewery Ministries Podcast

Did the Gospel of Mark present Jesus as merely human or as God? Mark 1:1 presents Jesus as the Son of God, but some say that title means he was simply a believer in God. Others say it means he was the literal son of God Himself. So which did Mark mean? It's easy to miss what Mark was trying to say because Mark didn't write his gospel using modern language and phrases. Because of this, we have to work quite a bit harder to understand what Mark was really trying to say. We'll look at some historical and cultural context that will help us unlock the original meaning of Mark 1:1. There's more packed into this single Bible verse than most realize! Mark 1:1 (ESV): The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God. Want to study the Bible with your friends?
