They had gone out with the message of repentance (6:12); they had anointed many sick people with oil and healed them (6:13). It seems ...read more

Jesus was often misunderstood, and when we hear these shocking words from the life of Jesus we are reminded that following him requires us to always follow, and not to dip in and out of following him.
