Context of Luke 9:26
24For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life because of me will save it. 25For what does it benefit someone if he gains the whole world, and yet loses or forfeits himself? For whoever is ashamed of me and my words, the Son of Man will be ashamed of him when he comes in his glory and that of the Father and the holy angels. 27Truly I tell you, there are some standing here who will not taste death until they see the kingdom of God.” 28About eight days after this conversation, he took along Peter, John, and James and went up on the mountain to pray.
