Matthew 16:21-28

21FromG575 that timeG5119 on JesusG24241 beganG756 to showG1166 HisG846 disciplesG3101 thatG3754 He mustG1163G846 goG565 toG1519 JerusalemG2414 andG2532 sufferG3958 many thingsG4183 at the hands ofG575 theG3588 eldersG4245, chief priestsG749, andG2532 scribesG1122, andG2532 that He must be killedG615 andG2532 on theG3588 thirdG5154 dayG2250 be raised to lifeG1453.

PeterG4074 took Him asideG4355G846 and beganG756 to rebukeG2008 HimG846. “Far be itG2436 from YouG4771, LordG2962!” he saidG3004. “ThisG3778 shall neverG3756G3361 happenG1510 to YouG4771!”

23ButG1161 Jesus turnedG4762 and saidG2036 to PeterG4074, “GetG5217 behindG3694 MeG1473, SatanG4567! You areG1510 a stumbling blockG4625 to MeG1473. ForG3754 you do not have in mindG3756G5426 the thingsG3588 of GodG2316, butG235 theG3588 thingsG3588 of menG444.”

24ThenG5119 JesusG2424 toldG2036G3588 HisG846 disciplesG3101, “IfG1487 anyoneG5100 wantsG2309 to comeG2064 afterG3694 MeG1473, he must denyG533 himselfG1438 andG2532 take upG142 hisG846 crossG4716 andG2532 followG190 MeG1473. 25ForG1063 whoeverG3739 wantsG1437G2309 to saveG4982 hisG846 lifeG5590 will loseG622 itG846, butG1161 whoeverG3739G302 losesG622 hisG846 lifeG5590 for My sakeG1752G1473 will findG2147 itG846. 26WhatG5101 will it profitG5623 a manG444 ifG1437 he gainsG2770 theG3588 wholeG3650 worldG2889, yetG1161 forfeitsG2210 hisG846 soulG5590? OrG2228 whatG5101 can a manG444 giveG1325 in exchange forG465 hisG846 soulG5590? 27ForG1063 theG3588 SonG5207 ofG3588 ManG444 willG3195 comeG2064 inG1722 HisG846 Father’sG3962 gloryG1391 withG3326 HisG846 angelsG32, andG2532 thenG5119 He will repayG591 each oneG1538 according toG2596 what heG846 has doneG4234.

28TrulyG281 I tellG3004 youG4771, someG5100 whoG3588 areG1510 standingG2476 hereG5602 will not tasteG3756G3361G1089 deathG2288 beforeG2193G302 they seeG3708 theG3588 SonG5207 of ManG444 comingG2064 inG1722 HisG846 kingdomG932.”
