It's exceptionally clear. Most just don't want to hear it because of how challenging it is. The Apostles certainly weren't ready and the very tone of their questions is meant to indicate this.
They also openly complain at times when they fail to understand after being told. This is why Jesus cursed the fig tree, to make this exact point to them in response to their complaints and selfish questions.

Yes, and then you need to get as many others to come with you as you possibly can. This is exactly what Jesus commands.
This is what I take from the Bible because these were the types of problems I had in my life. I was aimless and didn't understand what God wanted and that made me angry. So these are the parts I needed to focus on, personally.
