A:The Bible never says that Mark ever met Jesus. However, because Mark's Gospel was attributed to Mark in the second century, and because it is known to have been the first New Testament Gospel written, many have sought to establish how the Mark could possibly have known so much about the mission of Jesus.

One view is that the Apostle Paul taught him about Jesus. A view that became current in the second century is that Mark wrote down everything that Peter told him about Jesus. Yet another is that Mark was the young man whom the women found in the sepulchre on the third day of the crucifixion. Even if true, none of these is evidence that Mark met Jesus.

Where does it say in Mark's Gospel that Jesus carried his cross?

A:Mark's Gospel does not actually mention Jesus carrying his cross, although it is assumed he did at first, until Simon of Cyrene, who was passing by, was ordered to carry the cross for Jesus (Mark 15:21). This is followed by both Matthew and Luke, which are more or less directly dependent on Mark. It is in John's Gospel that we find Jesus carrying the cross all the way to the site of his crucifixion - John 19:17.
