Journey Through the Gospel of MarkSample

Christ as the Son of God
“Son of God” is a key term in the Gospel of Mark. It is used in the first verse and is dramatically pronounced by a centurion at the crucifixion. On two other occasions, a voice from heaven declares that Jesus is the beloved Son of God—at his baptism and the transfiguration (Mark 1:11, 9:7).
1. Why do you think it’s significant that a voice from heaven makes the declaration of Jesus being God’s beloved Son at these two particular events (baptism and transfiguration)?
2. Why do you think it’s significant that the third and final declaration of Jesus as God’s Son is pronounced by a Roman centurion?
