Luke 9:49-51

New Life Version

The Sharp Words Against the Followers

⁴⁹ John said, “Teacher, we saw someone putting out demons in Your name. We told him to stop because he was not following us.” ⁵⁰ Jesus said to him, “Do not stop him. He who is not against us is for us.”

Jesus and His Followers Leave Galilee

⁵¹ It was about time for Jesus to be taken up into heaven. He turned toward Jerusalem and was sure that nothing would stop Him from going.
