Short Conclusion Of Mark's Gospel

Hello! and happy good weekend to all of us, GUYS.  Our today's "food for the soul":

"After JESUS rose early on the first day of the week, HE appeared first to Mary of Magdala from whom HE had driven out seven demons.  She went and reported the news to HIS followers, who were now mourning and weeping.  But when they heard that HE lived and had been seen by her, they would not believe it. 

JESUS And Mary Of Magdala At The Tomb

After that HE showed HIMSELF in another form to two of them, as they were walking into the country.  These men too went back and told the others, but they did not believe them.

Later JESUS showed HIMSELF to the Eleven while they were at table.  HE reproached them for their unbelief and stubbornness in refusing to believe those who had seen HIM after HE had risen.

Then HE told them, 'Go out to the whole world and proclaim the Good News to all creation'." - Mark 16:9-15

Proclaim The GOOD NEWS

(We were looking forward to the meeting between JESUS and the apostles in Galilee, but it does not take place.  Why?  We do not know.  We find only a series of brief references to JESUS' appearances after HIS resurrection.

The GOOD NEWS

Proclaim the Good News to all creation.  The Good News is the seed that will be planted in the world and will flourish, in its proper time, in every field of human endeavor.  Salvation is not a matter of saving isolated souls or individual beings.  The Gospel is to be proclaimed to all creation in all activities and acts of those who have been renewed by baptism.  They are to be the yeast that transforms human history.)
