Luke 9:54 Context
52And sent messengers before his face, and they went and entred into a village of the Samaritanes to make ready for him. 53And they did not receiue him, because his face was as though he would goe to Hierusalem. 54And when his disciples, Iames and Iohn sawe this, they said, Lord, wilt thou that wee command fire to come downe from heauen, and consume them, euen as Elias did? 55But he turned, and rebuked them, and said, Ye know not what maner spirit ye are of. 56For the Sonne of man is not come to destroy mens liues, but to saue them. And they went to another village.
