The one casting out demons in his name
See them side by side
Luke 9:49-50
49And John answered and said, “Master, we saw someone casting out demons in your name, and we tried to stop him, because he does not follow with us.” 50But Jesus said to him, “Do not stop him; for whoever is not against you is for you.”
38John said to him, “Teacher, we saw someone driving out demons in your name, and we tried to stop him, because he was not following us.” 39But Jesus said, “Do not stop him; for there is no one who will do a miracle in my name and be able soon after to speak evil of me. 40For whoever is not against us is for us. 41For whoever gives you a cup of water to drink in the name that you belong to the Messiah, truly I tell you, he will never lose his reward.

When Jesus asks, “Who do you say that I am?”, what do the crowds say, and what does Peter answer? (vv. 18-20)
2. What it means
Jesus says anyone who wants to follow him must deny themselves and take up their cross daily. What reason does he give? (vv. 23-25)
3. How I live it
The disciples argued about who was greatest, and Jesus stood a child beside him (vv. 46-48). Whom could you give more attention to today?
