The Gospel According to St. Mark
Excerpt from The Gospel According to St. Mark
Twelve was filled by an eye-witness, competent to tell what Jesus did from the baptism of John to the day when He was received up, the very space covered by this Gospel. That Gospel of peace, which Cornelius heard from St. Peter (and hearing, received the Holy Ghost) was the same story of Jesus after the baptism which John preached. And this is throughout the substance of the primitive teaching. The Apostles act as men who believe that everything necessary to salva tion is (implicit or explicit) in the history of those few crowded years. Therefore this is the gospel.

God's Work according to Mark gives us more of Jesus' ministry and we as His child need to follow His Word.
