Context of Luke 9:26

24Whoever wants to keep his own life safe will lose it. But whoever gives his life to serve me will have true life. 25A person may get everything in the whole world for himself. But if he loses his life, it would not be any good for him. He will have destroyed himself in the end. You must not be ashamed of me and of my words. If you are, then the Son of Man will be ashamed of you. One day he will return and everyone will see his power. He will come with God's holy angels and he will have the bright glory of his Father God. He will be ashamed of you on that day, if you are ashamed of him now.’ 27Then Jesus said, ‘What I tell you is true. Some people who are standing here will see clearly God begin to rule in his kingdom. They will see that before they die.’ 28About eight days after Jesus had said these things, he went up a mountain to pray. He took Peter, John and James with him.

When one is, in this sense of it, lost to shame, he is nearly past hope (Zec 3:5; Jr 6:15; 3:3). But when Christ and "His words"--Christianity, especially in its…Read the comment
