  Luke Chapter 9 And he called the 12 together and gave them power
• 0:04
  and authority over all the demons and to heal diseases.
• 0:07
  And he sent them out to proclaim the Kingdom of God and to
• 0:10
  perform healing. And he said to them, Take
• 0:12
  nothing for your journey, neither a staff nor a bag, nor
• 0:15
  bread nor money, and do not even have two tunics apiece.
• 0:18
  Whatever house you enter, stay there until you leave the city.
• 0:22
  And As for those who do not receive you, as you go out from
• 0:25
  that city, shake the dust off your feet as a testimony against
• 0:28
  them. Departing, they began going
• 0:30
  throughout the villages, preaching the gospel and healing
• 0:33
  everywhere. Now Herod the Tetrarch heard of
• 0:35
  all that was happening, and he was greatly perplexed, because
• 0:38
  it was said by some that John had risen from the dead, and by
• 0:42
  some that Elijah had appeared, and by others that one of the
• 0:45
  prophets of old had risen again. Herod said, I myself had John
• 0:50
  beheaded, But who is this man about whom I hear such things?
• 0:53
  And he kept trying to see him. When the apostles returned, they
• 0:57
  gave an account to him of all that had been done.
• 0:59
  Taking them with him, he withdrew by himself to a city
• 1:02
  called Bethsaida. But the crowds were aware of
• 1:04
  this and followed him. And welcoming them, he began
• 1:07
  speaking to them about the Kingdom of God and curing those
• 1:10
  who had need of healing. Now the day was ending and the
• 1:13
  12 came and said to him, send the crowd away, that they may go
• 1:17
  into the surrounding villages and countryside and find lodging
• 1:20
  and get something to eat, for here we are in a desolate place.
• 1:23
  But he said to them, You give them something to eat.
• 1:27
  And they said, we have no more than 5 loaves and two fish,
• 1:30
  unless perhaps we go and buy food for all these people.
• 1:33
  For there were about 5000 men. And he said to his disciples,
• 1:37
  have them sit down to eat in groups of about 50 each.
• 1:41
  They did so and had them all sit down.
• 1:44
  Then he took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to
• 1:47
  heaven, he blessed them and broke them and kept giving them
• 1:50
  to the disciples to set before the people.
• 1:53
  And they all ate and were satisfied, and the broken pieces
• 1:56
  which they had leftover were picked up 12 baskets full.
• 2:00
  And it happened that while he was praying alone, the disciples
• 2:03
  were with him. And he questioned them, saying,
• 2:06
  Who do the people say that I am? They answered and said, John the
• 2:10
  Baptist and others say Elijah, but others, that one of the
• 2:13
  prophets of old has risen again. And he said to them, But who do
• 2:17
  you say that I am? And Peter answered and said The
• 2:20
  Christ of God, but he warned them and instructed them not to
• 2:24
  tell this to anyone, saying the Son of Man must suffer many
• 2:26
  things and be rejected by the elders and chief priests and
• 2:30
  scribes, and be killed and be raised up on the third day.
• 2:34
  And he was saying to them all, If anyone wishes to come after
• 2:38
  me, he must deny himself and take up his cross daily and
• 2:41
  follow me. For whoever wishes to save his
• 2:44
  life will lose it. But whoever but whoever loses
• 2:46
  his life for My sake, he is the one who will save it.
• 2:50
  For what is a man profited, if he gains the whole world and
• 2:53
  loses or forfeits himself? For whoever is ashamed of me in
• 2:57
  My words, the Son of Man will be ashamed of him when He comes in
• 3:01
  His glory and the glory of the Father and of the holy angels.
• 3:04
  But I say to you truthfully, there are some of those standing
• 3:07
  here who will not taste death until they see the Kingdom of
• 3:10
  God. Some eight days after these
• 3:13
  sayings he took along Peter and John and James, and went up on
• 3:16
  the mountain to pray. And while he was praying, the
• 3:19
  appearance of his face became different, and his clothing
• 3:21
  became white and gleaming. And behold, 2 men were talking
• 3:25
  with him, and they were Moses and Elijah, who, appearing in
• 3:29
  glory, were Speaking of his departure, which he was about to
• 3:31
  accomplish at Jerusalem. Now Peter and his companions had
• 3:35
  been overcome with sleep, but when they were fully awake they
• 3:38
  saw his glory and the two men standing with him.
• 3:42
  And as they were leaving him, Peter said to Jesus, Master, it
• 3:46
  is good for us to be here. Let us make 3 tabernacles, one
• 3:50
  for you one, one for Moses, and 1:00 for Elijah, not realizing
• 3:54
  what he was saying. While he was saying this, a
• 3:56
  cloud formed, began to over shadow them, and they were
• 3:59
  afraid as they entered the cloud.
• 4:01
  Then a voice came out of the cloud saying, This is my son, my
• 4:05
  chosen one, listen to him. And when the voice had spoken,
• 4:09
  Jesus was found alone. And they kept silent, and
• 4:12
  reported to no one in those days any of the things which they had
• 4:15
  seen. On the next day, when they came
• 4:17
  down from the mountain, a large crowd met them, and a man from
• 4:21
  the crowd shouted, saying, Teacher, I beg you to look at my
• 4:24
  son, for he is my only boy. And a spirit seizes him, and he
• 4:27
  suddenly screams, and it throws him into a convulsion with
• 4:31
  foaming at the mouth, and only with difficulty does it leave
• 4:33
  him, mauling him as it leaves. I begged your disciples to cast
• 4:37
  it out, and they could not. And Jesus answered and said, You
• 4:41
  unbelieving and perverted generation, how long shall I be
• 4:45
  with you and put up with you? Bring your Son here.
• 4:48
  While he was still approaching, the demons slammed him to the
• 4:50
  ground and threw him into a convulsion.
• 4:52
  But Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, and healed the boy, and
• 4:55
  gave him back to his Father. And they were all amazed at the
• 4:58
  greatness of God. But while everyone was
• 5:01
  marvelling at all he was doing, he said to his disciples, Let
• 5:04
  these words sink into your ears, for the Son of Man is going to
• 5:08
  be delivered into the hands of men.
• 5:10
  But they did not understand this statement, and it was concealed
• 5:13
  from them so that they would not perceive it, and they were
• 5:16
  afraid to ask him about this statement.
• 5:19
  An argument started among them as to which of them might be the
• 5:21
  greatest. But Jesus, knowing what they
• 5:24
  were thinking in their heart, took a child and stood him by
• 5:27
  his side and said to them, Whoever receives this child in
• 5:30
  my name receives me, and whoever receives me receives him who
• 5:34
  sent me. For the one who is least among
• 5:36
  all of you, this is the one who is great.
• 5:39
  John answered and said, Master, we saw someone casting out
• 5:42
  demons in your name. We tried to prevent him because
• 5:45
  he does not follow along with us.
• 5:47
  But Jesus said to him, do not hinder him, for he who is not
• 5:51
  against you is for you. When the days were approaching
• 5:54
  for his ascension, he was determined to go to Jerusalem,
• 5:57
  and he sent messengers on ahead of him, and they went and
• 6:00
  entered a village of the Samaritans to make arrangements
• 6:02
  for him, but they did not receive him because he was
• 6:05
  travelling toward Jerusalem. When his disciples James and
• 6:08
  John saw this, they said, Lord, do you want us to command fire
• 6:13
  to come down from heaven and consume them?
• 6:15
  But he turned and rebuked them and said, You do not know what
• 6:19
  kind of spirit you are of. For the Son of Man did not come
• 6:22
  to destroy men's lives, but to save them.
• 6:24
  And they went on to another village.
• 6:27
  As they were going along the road, someone said to him, I
• 6:29
  will follow you wherever you go. And Jesus said to him, The foxes
• 6:33
  have holes, and the birds of the air have nests, but the Son of
• 6:37
  Man has nowhere to lay his head. And he said to another, Follow
• 6:40
  me. But he said, Lord, permit me
• 6:43
  first to go and bury my father. But he said to him, Allow the
• 6:46
  dead to bury their own dead. But As for you, go and proclaim
• 6:50
  everywhere the Kingdom of God. Another also said, I will follow
• 6:54
  you, Lord, but first permit me to say goodbye to those at home.
• 6:57
  But Jesus said to him, No one, after putting his hand to the
• 7:00
  plough and looking back, is fit for the Kingdom of God.
