Mt 17:9-13
As they were coming down from the mountain,Jesus charged them, "Do not tell the vision to anyone until the Son of Man has been raised from the dead."
Then the disciples asked Jesus,
“Why do the scribes say that Elijah must come first?”
He said in reply, “Elijah will indeed come and restore all things;
but I tell you that Elijah has already come,
and they did not recognize him but did to him whatever they pleased.
So also will the Son of Man suffer at their hands.”
Then the disciples understood
that he was speaking to them of John the Baptist.
Ang Pagdating ni Elias.
Mateo 17:9-13
Habang bumababa sila sa bundok, iniutos sa kanila ni Jesus na sinabi: Huwag ninyong sabihin kaninuman ang pangitaing ito hanggang sa muling mabuhay mula sa mga patay ang Anak ng Tao.
Tinanong siya ng kaniyang mga alagad na sinasabi: Bakit sinasabi ng mga guro ng kautusan na dapat munang dumating si Elias?
Sumagot si Jesus: Darating muna si Elias upang ipanumbalik ang lahat ng bagay. Ngunit sinasabi ko sa inyo: Dumating na si Elias at hindi nila siya nakilala. Ginawa nila sa kaniya ang anumang kanilang naibigan. Gayundin naman ang Anak ng Tao ay pahihirapan na nila. Nang magkagayon, naunawaan ng mga alagad na si Juan na tagapagbawtismo ang tinutukoy niya.

When Jesus Christ came to this world, He did not come to be served like a King on his throne but instead to serve and give blessings to mankind.
Although He mentioned in our Gospel for today that like any other prophets, the Son of Man will also suffer.
So when we serve God, we too must be ready to suffer for the trials, persecution, temptation and sometimes mockery.
But let's not worry because we serve the most Powerful Living God and surely we will reap our rewards in His kingdom when our time is up!
God bless the Philippines!
