The gathered crowds.
- The apostles coming back together after being sent out to tell the people to repent
Those who didn't recognise Jesus as King - deny and reject
The Compassionate Shepherd
- leads and protects
- God describes His chosen leaders as shepherds and His people are described as like sheep.
2 Kings, 2 Meals, 2 very different outcomes
- Herod kills John the Baptist to protect his honour
- Jesus has compassion and mercy, feeding the 5000 and having more left over than needed
The King foreshadowed by Moses
So many don't recognise, but instead reject Jesus, no matter how much they are told they still reject Him
We are called to:
- Recognise
- Repent
- Rejoice
- Repeat
Mark 1:15 - preach repentance
