.
Mark 8:27-37
27Jesus
went on with his disciples to the villages of Caesarea Philippi; and
on the way he asked his disciples, “Who do people say that I am?”
28And they answered him, “John the Baptist; and others,
Elijah; and still others, one of the prophets.” 29He
asked them, “But who do you say that I am?” Peter answered him, “You
are the Messiah.” 30And he sternly ordered them not to
tell anyone about him.
31Then he began
to teach them that the Son of Man must undergo great suffering, and
be rejected by the elders, the chief priests, and the scribes, and
be killed, and after three days rise again. 32He said all
this quite openly. And Peter took him aside and began to rebuke him.
33But turning and looking at his disciples, he rebuked
Peter and said, “Get behind me, Satan! For you are setting your mind
not on divine things but on human things.”
34He called the crowd with his disciples, and said to them, “If any want
to become my followers, let them deny themselves and take up their
cross and follow me. 35For those who want to save their
life will lose it, and those who lose their life for my sake, and
for the sake of the gospel, will save it. 36For what will
it profit them to gain the whole world and forfeit their life?
37Indeed, what can they give in return for their life?
