Eternal live

Jesus answered "Yes all of you have become my followers. and so in the future world, when the Son of Man sits on His glorious throne, I promise that you will sit on 12 thrones to judge the 12 tribes of Israel. all who have given up home or brothers and sisters or fathers and mother or children or land for Me will given 100 times as much, they will also have eternal life  

Give His life

But don't act like them. if you want to be great, you must be the servant of all the others. and if you want to be first, you must be the slave of the rest. The Son of Man did not come to be a slave master, but a slave who will give his life to rescue many people.     

Rise to life

While Jesus and His disciples were going from place to place in Galilee, He told them, "The Son of man will be handed over to people who will kill Him. but three days later He will rise to life." all of this made the disciples very sad. 

Messiah

Six days later Jesus took Peter and the brothers James and John with Him. they went upon a very high mountain where they could  be alone. there in front of the disciples, Jesus was completely changed. His face was shining like the sun, and His clothes became as white as light. all at once Moses and Elijah were there talking with Jesus so Peter said to Him, "Lord it's good for us to be here! let us make three shelters, one for You, one for Moses, and one for elijah,". while Peter was still speaking, the shadow of a bright cloud passed over them. from the cloud a voice said, "This is my own dear Son, and I am pleased with Him."       

Who is Jesus

When Jesus and His disciples were near the town of Caesarea Philippi, He asked them "what do people say about the Son of Man?"
Simon Peter spoke up "You are the Messiah, the Son of the living God"
Jesus told him :
Simon, son of Jonah, you are blessed!you didn't discover this on your own. It was shown to you by my Father in Heaven.

Walks on the water

Straight away Jesus made His disciples get into a boat and start back across the lake. but He stayed until He had sent the crowds away. then He went up on amountain where He could be alone and pray. later that evening, He was still there. by this time the boat was a long way from the shore. it was going against the wind and was being tossed around by the waves. a little while before morning Jesus came walking on the water towards His disciples. when they saw Him, they thought He was a ghost. they were terrified and started screaming. at once Jesus said to them, "don't worry! I am Jesus, don't be afraid". Peter replied, "Lord, if it is really You, tell me to come to You on the water". "come on!" Jesus said. Peter then got out of the boat and started walking on the water  towards Him. but Peter saw how strong the wind was, he was afraid and start sinking. "save me Lord!" he shouted. at once, Jesus reached out his hand, He helped Peter up and said, "you certainly do not have much faith, why do you doubt?". when Jesus and Peter got into the boat, the wind died down. the men in the boat worshipped Jesus and said "You are really the Son of God".

                       

Farmer

Now listen to the meaning of the story about the farmer : the seeds that fell along the road are the people who hear the message about the kingdom, but do not understand it. Then the evil one comes and snatches the message from their hearts. the seeds that fell on rocky ground are the people who gladly hear the message and accept it straight away  but they do not have deep roots, and they do not last very long. as soon as life gets hard or the message gets them into trouble, they give up. the seeds that fell among the thorn bushes are also people who hear the message but, they start worrying about the needs of this life and are fooled by the desireto get rich. so the message gets choked out, and they never produce anything.the seeds that fell on good ground are the people who hear and understand the message  they produce as much as 100 or 60 or 30 times what was planted
