'You are the Son of God!'

What is the significance of Jesus' withdrawing, retreating and even hiding Himself from the Crowd?

One purpose of Jesus is the foreshadowing of gathering the lost sheep of Israel, pagans included.!!!!

Isaiah 49:3-5, the prophecy of the servant to be gathered again as sheep with the flock and with a Shepherd.

The theme continues,... Who do you think Jesus Christ is?
another leader of a certain religion?

What is the significance of the word 'called' in verse 13, the calling of Christ, God according to His purpose.
The calling of the Apostles with specific purpose. ordained (v14), and be sent to preach, and to have power to heal (v15).
Prefigured the 12 tribes of Israel. lost, and be gathered according to His Purpose.
The Irresistable Grace of God!!!

Another triple Amen!
