Central truth · Meet

Jesus chooses to go to Jerusalem, where he will complete his work of saving people.

Lucas 9:51-62 · ASD
Nang malapit na ang araw para bumalik si Hesus sa langit, nagpasya siyang pumunta sa Jerusalem. Kaya pinauna niya ang ilang tao sa isang nayon ng mga Samaritano upang humanap ng matutuluyan. Ngunit ayaw siyang tanggapin ng mga tagaroon dahil alam nilang papunta siya sa Jerusalem. Nang malaman iyon ng mga alagad ni Hesus na sina Santiago at Juan, sinabi nila kay Hesus, “Panginoon, gusto nʼyo po bang humingi kami ng apoy mula sa langit para sunugin sila?” Ngunit lumingon si Hesus at pinagsabihan sila. At tumuloy na lang sila sa ibang nayon. Habang naglalakad sila, may isang lalaking nagsabi kay Hesus, “Susunod po ako sa inyo kahit saan.” Ngunit sinagot siya ni Hesus, “May mga lungga ang mga asong-gubat, at may mga pugad ang mga ibon, ngunit ang Anak ng Tao ay walang sariling tahanan na mapagpapahingahan.” Sinabi ni Hesus sa isa, “Sumunod ka sa akin.” Ngunit sumagot siya, “Panginoon, pauwiin po muna ninyo ako upang maipalibing ko ang aking ama.” Ngunit sinabi sa kanya ni Hesus, “Ipaubaya mo sa mga patay ang paglilibing ng kanilang patay. Ngunit ikaw, humayo ka at ipangaral ang tungkol sa kaharian ng Diyos.” May isa ring nagsabi kay Hesus, “Susunod po ako sa inyo, Panginoon, pero hayaan nʼyo muna po akong magpaalam sa pamilya ko.” Sinabi ni Hesus sa kanya, “Ang nagsimulang mag-araro ngunit lingon naman nang lingon ay hindi kapaki-pakinabang sa kaharian ng Diyos.”

ASD · API.Bible

Luke marks a turning point: when the days draw near for Jesus to be taken up, He “set his face to go to Jerusalem.” The journey is deliberate. Jesus is not drifting toward the events that await Him.

Watch: Set His Face Toward Jerusalem

Watch the companion video, then continue reading to examine the biblical testimony in its full context.

Watch on YouTube

Rejected on the Way.

A Samaritan village refuses to receive Him because He is traveling toward Jerusalem. James and John want destructive judgment. Jesus rebukes them and continues to another village.

The Journey Has a Destination.

Jerusalem will become the setting for rejection, death, resurrection, and ultimately the completion of the mission Jesus has been announcing. Luke presents Jesus moving toward that destination intentionally.

Followers Meet the Same Urgency.

Along the road, would-be followers speak with Jesus. His replies are demanding: following Him cannot be reduced to comfort, delay, or divided allegiance.

His Face Is Set.

The passage joins Jesus’ resolve with the cost of following Him. He is going somewhere specific, and those who would follow cannot treat discipleship as an endlessly postponed intention.

Consider this.

What does this encounter reveal about Jesus?

Notice the encounter

Read Luke 9:51–62 and notice the resolve with which Jesus moves toward Jerusalem.

Ang Anatomiya ng Pagdaraya sa Sarili

Anong pundasyon ang kasalukuyang umaalalay sa iyong buhay kapag humahampas ang mga bagyo ng kultura?

Pinanatili ang naka-save na teksto; hindi pa napatutunayan dito ang edisyon nito. Tingnan ang talata sa Bibliya na may nakasaad na edisyon sa ibaba.

Anong pundasyon ang kasalukuyang umaalalay sa iyong buhay kapag humahampas ang mga bagyo ng kultura?

Matthew 7:24–25

Basahin ang talata sa Bibliya at ang edisyon nito
Mateo 7:24-25 · ASD
“Kaya ang sinumang nakikinig sa aking mga salita at sinusunod ito ay maihahalintulad sa isang matalinong lalaki na nagtayo ng kanyang bahay sa pundasyong bato. Nang umulan nang malakas at bumaha, at hinampas ng malakas na hangin ang bahay, hindi ito nagiba dahil nakatayo ito sa pundasyong bato.

ASD · API.Bible

Hindi sapat ang pilosopiya lamang upang manatiling nakatayo ang iyong bahay sa gitna ng matinding pagsubok. Ibinibigay sa atin ni Hesus ang isang matibay na plano na sadyang dinisenyo upang magtagal.
