Komitmen Mengikut Yesus

1. The Commitment
of Discipleship
Luke 9:23-27

2. Luk 9:23-27
(23) Kata-Nya kepada mereka semua: "Setiap orang yang
mau mengikut Aku, ia harus menyangkal dirinya,
memikul salibnya setiap hari dan mengikut Aku.
(24) Karena barangsiapa mau menyelamatkan nyawanya,
ia akan kehilangan nyawanya; tetapi barangsiapa
kehilangan nyawanya karena Aku, ia akan
menyelamatkannya.
(25) Apa gunanya seorang memperoleh seluruh dunia,
tetapi ia membinasakan atau merugikan dirinya sendiri?
(26) Sebab barangsiapa malu karena Aku dan karena
perkataan-Ku, Anak Manusia juga akan malu karena
orang itu, apabila Ia datang kelak dalam kemuliaan-Nya
dan dalam kemuliaan Bapa dan malaikat-malaikat kudus.

Romans from the Phoenicians; to it were affixed
among the Romans, down to the time of Constantine
the Great, the guiltiest criminals, particularly the
basest slaves, robbers, the authors and abetters of
insurrections, and occasionally in the provinces, at the
arbitrary pleasure of the governors, upright and
peaceable men also, and even Roman citizens
themselves
