Luke 9:18-22

Following Christ

18 Once when Jesus was praying by himself, the disciples joined him, and he asked them, " Who do the crowds say that I am?"

19 They answered, "John the Baptist, others Elijah, and still others that one of the ancient prophets has come back to life."

20 He asked them, " And what about you? Who do you say that I am?" Peter answered, "The Christ sent from God."

21 Jesus gave them strict orders not to tell this to anyone.

22 He said, " The Human One must suffer many things and be rejected—by the elders, chief priests, and the legal experts—and be killed and be raised on the third day."
