S4 Ep12 Mark 8 - Gaining and Losing One's Life

We take a look at an of-quoted verse of scripture involving gaining the world and losing one's "soul." We look at verse 36 in light of the context of the Lord telling his disciples he will soon be put to death. Mark uses the same word translated "life" and "soul" four times. In context of the Lord laying down his life, he is asking his followers at that time to be prepared to lay down theirs.If you plug in "soul" for "life" in verse 35, applying how many generally use the idea of a "lost soul," it should jar us from theological complacency and make us reexamine our assumptions.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/brooklyn-s-dad-talks-about-the-bible--4330982/support.
