Exploring the Gospels - there were certain Greeks among them - Marcus Da Costa
The ultimately purpose of the journey of transformation, the process by which those who Yeshua called and chose to follow; witness; hear and replicate him, is to socialise his disciples into the Kingdom of YeHoVaH, which according to the scriptures is everlasting. It’s therefore necessary that the elect deny themselves, forsake all and follow him, as many of those things which feed their flesh, and yoked them to this world are temporary. What affirmed the arrival of this Kingdom, and as a consequence, the King, for many of Jerusalem and the region nearby, was the resurrection of Lazarus, which was witnessed and heard of by the people.
