    Seguimento e discipulado em Mc 1.16-20: as exigências do discipulado e a contemporaneidade
    (2025) Pedro Henrique dos Santos Barros
    This article explores the demands of discipleship as presented in Mark 1:16-20, aiming to reflect on their application and relevance for contemporary Christians. The central hypothesis is that Jesus' demands, which involve the abandonment of a previous life and total dedication to Him, are timeless principles that continue to shape and challenge modern Christian life. Through exegetical and hermeneutical analysis, this study investigates the distinction between Jewish discipleship and following Jesus, emphasizing the practical implications of this difference. Furthermore, the article examines how Jesus' call to leave one's former life remains a central aspect of Christian commitment, offering an application of these demands to contemporary life and pastoral practice. The conclusion is that Jesus' teachings maintain their relevance over time, providing a solid foundation for Christian life and its role in the modern world.
