Mark wrote his Gospel to explain why and how Jesus is the Messiah and the Son of God who fulfils God's promises as he proclaims and embodies the coming of the kingdom of God. Mark's carefully complied and concise account of the life of Jesus was written for Christians who live as Jesus' disciples, who teach other disciples and who preach the gospel.
