Matthew:16:21-28

*
From that time forth began Jesus to shew unto his disciples ,
how that he must go unto Jerusalem ,
and suffer many things of the elders and chief priests and scribes ,
and be killed ,
and be raised again the third day .
*
Then Peter took him ,
and began to rebuke him ,
saying ,
Be it far from thee ,
Lord :
this shall not be unto thee .
*
But he turned ,
and said unto Peter ,
Get thee behind me ,
Satan :
thou art an offence unto me :
for thou savourest not the things that be of God ,
but those that be of men .
*
Then said Jesus unto his disciples ,
If any man will come after me ,
let him deny himself ,
and take up his cross ,
and follow me .
*
For whosoever will save his life shall lose it :
and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it .
*
For what is a man profited ,
if he shall gain the whole world ,
and lose his own soul ?
or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul ?
*
For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels ;
and then he shall reward every man according to his works .
*
Verily I say unto you ,
There be some standing here ,
which shall not taste of death ,
till they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom .
