They are beginning to understand what discipleship means: denying the self, serving others, and even suffering for the good of others. Have you ever seen the game show “The Price is Right?” People compete salvation to his followers. We see that Peter does not really understand it yet. He doesn’t think that Jesus should have to die. Jesus rebukes him, calling him Satan and explaining that he is thinking like a human being, not God. Unlike the contestants on the Price is Right, today’s disciples have a clear understanding of the price of discipleship because we can learn from the Gospel. We know that being Jesus’s followers does not always mean taking the easy road. It means that we understand that we are to serve others, and that may require suffering. The cost is that we let go of any perks and focus on Jesus first. Like the contestants on the “Price is Right”, however, we cannot win the kingdom of heaven without acknowledging the price of discipleship. We need to see our choices and actions from God’s perspective, not a human perspective. Are we able to acknowledge our sufferings, or do we like Peter try to ignore the reality?
