The Luke 9:23 road trip

Luke 9:18-20 “Who do the crowds say I am?” They replied, “Some say John the Baptist, others say Elijah and still others, that one of the prophets of long ago has come back to life.

Luke 9:18-20 “Who do the crowds say I am?” They replied, “Some say John the Baptist, others say Elijah and still others, that one of the prophets of long ago has come back to life. “But what about you?” he asked. “Who do you say I am?”

Luke 9:18-20 “Who do the crowds say I am?” They replied, “Some say John the Baptist, others say Elijah and still others, that one of the prophets of long ago has come back to life. “But what about you?” he asked. “Who do you say I am?” Peter answered, “The Christ, son of God.”

Luke 9:22 And he said, “The son of man must suffer many things and be rejected by the elders, chief priests, and the teachers of the law and he must be killed and on the third day be raised to life.”

Luke 9:23 Then he said to them all, “If anyone should come after me, they must deny themselves, take up their cross daily and follow me.

If anyone… All inclusive (no pre-existing conditions)

…. would come after me Relentless Pursuit

Matthew 13:44 “The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field. When a man found it, he hid it again, and then in his joy went and sold all he had and bought that field.

… they must deny themselves, Putting Christ’s commands above our own desires.

… take up their cross daily, If you are following Jesus, it will cost you something.

… and follow me. Following Jesus isn’t easy - but it’s the only road worth following.

John 3:16 emphasizes belief. Luke 9:23 emphasizes following.
