Matthew 8:22

So he forsook the oxen and ran after Elijah and said, “Please let me kiss my father and my mother, then I will follow you.” And he said to him, “Go back again, for what have I done to you?”

And as Jesus went on from there, He saw a man called Matthew, sitting in the tax office; and He *said to him, “Follow Me!” And he stood up and followed Him.

And as He passed by, He saw Levi the son of Alphaeus sitting in the tax office, and He *said to him, “Follow Me!” And he stood up and followed Him.

And He said to another, “Follow Me.” But he said, “Lord, permit me first to go and bury my father.”

for this son of mine was dead and has come to life again; he was lost and has been found.’ And they began to celebrate.

On the next day, He desired to go into Galilee, and He *found Philip. And Jesus *said to him, “Follow Me.”

Now this He said, signifying by what kind of death he would glorify God. And when He had spoken this, He *said to him, “Follow Me!”

Jesus *said to him, “If I want him to remain until I come, what is that to you? You follow Me!”

But Peter said, “By no means, Lord, for I have never eaten anything defiled and unclean.”
