Philippians 2:5-8
King James Version
5 Let this mind be in you,
which was also in Christ Jesus:
6 Who, being in the form of God,
thought it not robbery to be equal with God:
7 But made himself of no reputation,
and took upon him the form of a servant,
and was made in the likeness of men:
8 And being found in fashion as a man,
he humbled himself,
and became obedient unto death,
even the death of the cross.
How different JESUS was, from most of us.
He preferred to remain in obscurity, giving GLORY to the FATHER alone.
He had no thought for self.
How many of us are that way?
Scripture has much to tell about the SON of GOD, who commanded His apostles to "tell no man", of the miracles He performed, or of WHO He was.
Luke 5:12-14
King James Version
12 And it came to pass,
when he was in a certain city,
behold a man full of leprosy:
who seeing Jesus fell on his face,
and besought him,
saying,
Lord,
if thou wilt,
thou canst make me clean.
13 And he put forth his hand,
and touched him,
saying,
I will: be thou clean.
And immediately the leprosy departed from him.
14 And he charged him to tell no man:
but go,
and shew thyself to the priest,
and offer for thy cleansing,
according as Moses commanded,
for a testimony unto them.
Matthew 9:27-30
King James Version
27 And when Jesus departed thence,
two blind men followed him,
crying, and saying,
Thou son of David,
have mercy on us.
28 And when he was come into the house,
the blind men came to him:
and Jesus saith unto them,
Believe ye that I am able to do this?
They said unto him,
Yea, Lord.
29 Then touched he their eyes, saying,
According to your faith be it unto you.
30 And their eyes were opened;
and Jesus straitly charged them,
saying,
See that no man know it.
Matthew 12:10-16
King James Version
10 And, behold,
there was a man which had his hand withered.
And they asked him,
saying,
Is it lawful to heal on the sabbath days?
that they might accuse him.
11 And he said unto them,
What man shall there be among you,
that shall have one sheep,
and if it fall into a pit on the sabbath day,
will he not lay hold on it,
and lift it out?
12 How much then is a man better than a sheep?
Wherefore it is lawful to do well on the sabbath days.
13 Then saith he to the man,
Stretch forth thine hand.
And he stretched it forth;
and it was restored whole,
like as the other.
14 Then the Pharisees went out,
and held a council against him,
how they might destroy him.
15 But when Jesus knew it,
he withdrew himself from thence:
and great multitudes followed him,
and he healed them all;
16 And charged them that
they should not make him known:
Matthew 16:20
King James Version
20 Then charged he his disciples
that they should tell no man
that he was Jesus the Christ.
Matthew 17:1-9
King James Version
17 And after six days Jesus taketh Peter,
James,
and John his brother,
and bringeth them up into an high mountain apart,
2 And was transfigured before them:
and his face did shine as the sun,
and his raiment was white as the light.
3 And, behold,
there appeared unto them Moses and Elias
talking with him.
4 Then answered Peter,
and said unto Jesus,
Lord,
it is good for us to be here:
if thou wilt,
let us make here three tabernacles;
one for thee,
and one for Moses,
and one for Elias.
5 While he yet spake,
behold,
a bright cloud overshadowed them:
and behold a voice out of the cloud,
which said,
This is my beloved Son,
in whom I am well pleased;
hear ye him.
6 And when the disciples heard it,
they fell on their face,
and were sore afraid.
7 And Jesus came and touched them,
and said,
Arise,
and be not afraid.
8 And when they had lifted up their eyes,
they saw no man, save Jesus only.
9 And as they came down from the mountain,
Jesus charged them,
saying,
Tell the vision to no man,
until the Son of man
be risen again from the dead.
Mark 3:11-12
King James Version
11 And unclean spirits,
when they saw him,
fell down before him,
and cried, saying,
Thou art the Son of God.
12 And he straitly charged them
that they should not make him known.
Mark 7:24
King James Version
24 And from thence he arose,
and went into the borders of Tyre and Sidon,
and entered into an house,
and would have no man know it:
but he could not be hid.
Mark 7:31-36
King James Version
31 And again,
departing from the coasts of Tyre and Sidon,
he came unto the sea of Galilee,
through the midst of the coasts of Decapolis.
32 And they bring unto him one that was deaf,
and had an impediment in his speech;
and they beseech him to put his hand upon him.
33 And he took him aside from the multitude,
and put his fingers into his ears,
and he spit,
and touched his tongue;
34 And looking up to heaven,
he sighed,
and saith unto him,
Ephphatha,
that is,
Be opened.
35 And straightway his ears were opened,
and the string of his tongue was loosed,
and he spake plain.
36 And he charged them that they should tell no man:
but the more he charged them,
so much the more a great deal they published it;
Mark 9:30
King James Version
30 And they departed thence,
and passed through Galilee;
and he would not that any man should know it.
Luke 8:49-56
King James Version
49 While he yet spake,
there cometh one from the ruler of the synagogue's house,
saying to him,
Thy daughter is dead;
trouble not the Master.
50 But when Jesus heard it,
he answered him,
saying,
Fear not:
believe only,
and she shall be made whole.
51 And when he came into the house,
he suffered no man to go in,
save Peter, and James, and John,
and the father and the mother of the maiden.
52 And all wept,
and bewailed her:
but he said,
Weep not;
she is not dead,
but sleepeth.
53 And they laughed him to scorn,
knowing that she was dead.
54 And he put them all out,
and took her by the hand,
and called, saying,
Maid, arise.
55 And her spirit came again,
and she arose straightway:
and he commanded to give her meat.
56 And her parents were astonished:
but he charged them
that they should tell no man what was done.
Luke 9:20-21
King James Version
20 He said unto them,
But whom say ye that I am?
Peter answering said,
The Christ of God.
21 And he straitly charged them,
and commanded them to tell no man that thing;
