97. The Cup and the Baptism - Mark 10:38-40

"But Jesus said unto them, Ye know not what ye ask: can ye drink of the cup that I drink of? and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with? And they said unto him, We can. And Jesus said unto them, Ye shall indeed drink of the cup that I drink of; and with the baptism that I am baptized withal shall ye be baptized: But to sit on my right hand and on my left hand is not mine to give; but it shall be given to them for whom it is prepared." - Mark 10:38-40

What Jesus is telling His disciples is that the path to greatness in the kingdom of God is the path of suffering. But naively, they don’t understand. They assure Jesus that they can go through whatever Jesus himself goes through in order to get the promotions they’re after.
