Matthew:16:21-28

*
From that time ,
Jesus began to show his disciples that he must go to Jerusalem and suffer many things from the elders ,
chief priests ,
and scribes ,
and be killed ,
and the third day be raised up .
*
Peter took him aside ,
and began to rebuke him ,
saying , "
Far be it from you ,
Lord !
This will never be done to you ."
*
But he turned ,
and said to Peter , "
Get behind me ,
Satan !
You are a stumbling block to me ,
for you are not setting your mind on the things of God ,
but on the things of men ."
*
Then Jesus said to his disciples , "
If anyone desires to come after me ,
let him deny himself ,
and take up his cross ,
and follow me .
*
For whoever desires to save his life will lose it ,
and whoever will lose his life for my sake will find it .
*
For what will it profit a man ,
if he gains the whole world ,
and forfeits his life ?
Or what will a man give in exchange for his life ?
*
For the Son of Man will come in the glory of his Father with his angels ,
and then he will render to everyone according to his deeds .
*
Most certainly I tell you ,
there are some standing here who will in no way taste of death ,
until they see the Son of Man coming in his Kingdom ."
