Man Up University Podcast Episode 28 - Deny Yourself

Man Up University

Luke 9:23-25 - Then he said to them all: “If anyone would come after me, he 23 must deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me. For whoever wants 24 to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for me will save it. What 25 good is it for a man to gain the whole world, and yet lose or forfeit his very self? What does it mean to “take up your cross?” How about “to deny yourself?” The cross was an instrument of death and here symbolizes the necessity of total commitment—even unto death—on the part of Jesus’ disciples. Cross bearing includes a willingness to suffer and die for the LORD’s sake. Today that means being willing to publicly identify with Jesus, to experience almost certain opposition (some obvious, some hidden), and be committed to face possible ridicule, suffering, and even death for his sake. https://manupuniversity.org https://facebook.com/TheManUpUniversity https://instagram.com/man_up_university https://twitter.com/umanupu
