Matthew 16: 20-24
(Jubilee Bible 2000)
Then he charged his disciples that they should tell no one
that he was Jesus the Christ.
²¹ From that time forth Jesus began to declare unto his disciples, how it was expedient for him to go unto Jerusalem and to suffer many things of the elders and the princes of the priests and of the scribes and to be killed and to be raised again the third day.
²² Then Peter, taking him aside, began to rebuke him, saying, Lord, be it far from thee; in no wise shall this happen unto thee.
²³ But he turned and said unto Peter, Remove thyself from before me, Satan; thou art an offence unto me, for thou dost not understand that which is of God, but that which is of men.
²⁴ Then Jesus said unto his disciples, If anyone will come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross {Gr. Stauros – stake} and follow me.

summary:

Jesus begins to prepare His disciples for His upcoming suffering, death, and resurrection. Peter rebukes Him, but Jesus, recognizing the devil’s influence, rebukes Peter in return. He then elaborates on the cost of following Him – denying oneself and taking up one’s cross.

Matthew 16 delves into the revelation of Jesus’ identity, His forewarning of the suffering He would endure, and His teachings on the cost of discipleship. A significant moment is Peter’s declaration of Jesus as the Christ. Meanwhile, the Pharisees and Sadducees’ demand for a sign underscores their persistent disbelief. The chapter concludes with the Transfiguration, a glimpse of Jesus’ divine glory.

Discernment in Teaching
Be vigilant about the teachings you accept, ensuring they align with Scripture and not the leaven of false doctrines.

Personal Confession of Faith
Reflect on your own understanding of who Jesus is and make a personal confession of faith, acknowledging Him as Lord and Savior.

Embrace the Cross
Embrace the call to discipleship by denying self-interest and willingly bearing the cross, trusting in the eternal rewards promised by Christ.

Eternal Perspective
Prioritize spiritual growth and eternal values over temporary worldly pursuits, recognizing the incomparable worth of the soul.

Government Shutdown Clock – The White House
…Day 37 – and counting ~ this will be a new part of my posts until the gov opens back up…
Time to scrap the filibuster: American Thinker …“President Trump is in a bind right now. Voters are going Democrat in no small part because Democrats have shut down the government, not even allowing continuing resolutions to ensure that welfare recipients on SNAP benefits get their payment cards filled. To them, free health care for illegal aliens is more important. Now the airports are shutting down, and flights are being delayed. Many voters are blaming President Trump again for assorted small plane crashes around the country as well as monster delays at airports. The phony claims of Democrats stoke those fears. The military has no money to pay troops and local news reports say that military families are lining up at food banks. While the fault here is the Democrats, Trump is taking the fire. So not surprisingly, he’s changing tactics in the face of this wall of obstruction, asking GOP Senators to scrap the filibuster, to lower the threshold for passage of some kind of budgetary bill to keep the government running.”…the filibuster needs to be scrapped, or nothing will get down. Don’t get me wrong, this shutdown has “exposed” so much fraud and just how much power the federal government has, but if the filibuster isn’t scrapped – the next three years will be all for naught – and for whatever reason, the Republicans will get the blame.
