Suffering Servant

John 6:15 
Therefore when Jesus perceived that they were about to come and take Him by force to make Him king, He departed again to the mountain by Himself alone.

Jesus came as Messiah to rule, but not as the people thought - they tried to make Him an earthly King, while Jesus wanted to rule their hearts.  So He went away from the crowd to pray and then kept telling us why He came until it was time for sacrifice and the beginning of a spiritual kingdom to begin in men's hearts and souls.
