AMPLIFIED 2015 | Luke 9:23 ¶ And He was saying to them all, "If anyone wishes to follow Me [as My disciple], he must deny himself [set aside selfish interests], and take up his cross daily [expressing a willingness to endure whatever may come] and follow Me [believing in Me, conforming to My example in living and, if need be, suffering or perhaps dying because of faith in Me]. |
Subject: Why are we Fake sometimes? |
Bible Note: Matthew 20:22 But Jesus answered and said, "You do not know what you ask. Are you able to drink the cup that I am about to drink, and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with?"[20:22 NU-Text omits [and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with.] ] They said to Him, "We are able." (Whole Chapter: Matthew 20 In context: Matthew 20:21-23) Matthew 20:23 So He said to them, "You will indeed drink My cup, and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with;[20:23 NU-Text omits [and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with.] ] but to sit on My right hand and on My left is not Mine to give, but it is for those for whom it is prepared by My Father." (Whole Chapter: Matthew 20 In context: Matthew 20:22-24) See here he was specific to the two boys that asked him and he said, you would have to drink from the cup.. which meant the suffering and death he would go through. he was more specific about dying. |
