The Cost of Following Jesus
The Cost of Following Jesus
Luk 9:57 And it came to pass, that, as they went in the way, a certain man said unto him, Lord, I will
follow thee whithersoever thou goest.
Luk 9:58 And Jesus said unto him, Foxes have holes, and birds of the air have nests; but the Son of man
hath not where to lay his head.
Luk 9:59 And he said unto another, Follow me. But he said, Lord, suffer me first to go and bury my
father.
Luk 9:60 Jesus said unto him, Let the dead bury their dead: but go thou and preach the kingdom of
God.
Luk 9:61 And another also said, Lord, I will follow thee; but let me first go bid them farewell, which are
at home at my house.
Luk 9:62 And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for
the kingdom of God.
Pero itong scribe na ito ay publickly pinakita niya na siya ay handang sumunod sa Panginoong Hesus by
willingly coming to Him.
The scribe said, Master I will follow thee withersoever thou goest.
But Jesus answered him, Foxes have holes, and birds of the air have nests; but the Son of man hath not
where to lay his head.
After that wala na tayong mababasa sa Bible if that scribe followed the Lord or not?
Sa palagay niyo po sumunod o hindi?
Bakit may free will? Because God wants voluntary worship. Gusto ng Dios ay pagsamba na galing
sa ating puso.
Kaya kung tayo ay maglilingkod sa Dios, let us serve God with absolute willingness.
God look on our hearts sa ating paglilingkod.
Sabi nga ni John Paul, kung bibigyan daw siya ng regalo basta daw bukal sa puso okay daw yun.
Kamusta po ang puso natin sa Panginoon?
Mas dapat ngang magtapat tayo sa Panginoon para pagpalain po Niya tayo!
Following Christ is not about our wants but what God wants
Following Christ is not about our desires but what He desires
Remember what the song says, kung hindi ngayon kailan pa?
Kung bibilangin ang oras na-spend natin sa buong maghapon? Ilan ang naibigay na oras natin sa
Panginoon?
Are you still praying? Are you still reading your Bible?
The only reason you will serve God whatever the cost is not your love for God.
But the love of God to us. Why? yung pagmamahal natin sa Dios nagbabago
Pero ang pag-ibig ng Dios di nagbabago.
Kaya kung gaano kalalalim ang pagkaunawa natin sa pag-ibig ng Dios, ganun din ang klase ng
paglilingkod ang makikita sa atin.
