Mark 9:9-13 // The Price of Understanding (Preached on November 9, 2025)

As three of Jesus' disciples descend from their high mountain experience with Him, they discuss what it means for Jesus to rise from the dead. In their inability to grasp the plain explanation, they digress into discussing Elijah, whom they just saw on the mountain top. We see in this passage three things that bring understanding: the resurrection, fulfilled prophecy, and suffering.
