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.

Which Gospel presents Jesus as God in the flesh?

A:This is John's Gospel. The first New Testament gospel, now known as Mark's Gospel presents Jesus as fully human, adopted by God as his son at the time of Jesus' baptism. Matthew and Lukeportray Jesus as the son of God from conception. John presents Jesus as divine and pre-existing, yet living on earth in the flesh. John 1:1, "In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God." The Word (Logos) was a Greek concept that appears to have entered Christianity through Philo of Alexandria. In this gospel, Jesus says "I am" several times, which if spoken in the gospel language, Greek and in the absolute form (but not Hebrew or Aramaic) would have Jesus claim to be God. In this gospel, Jesus is at all times aware of his mission and does not fear death, always knowing that he would die on the cross. Whereas the synoptic gospels have Jesus praying in the Garden of Gethsemene that God would take the cup (his destiny) from him, John's Gospel simply has Jesus say a triumphant prayer before reaching the Garden, saying that his time had come. The fourth gospel avoids any mention of Jesus suffering on the cross, but instead he calmly gives instructions to the 'beloved disciple' and then dies after a remarkably short time on the cross.
