Luke 9:18-27

181And it happened that while He was 2praying alone, the disciples were with Him, and He questioned them, saying, “Who do the 3people say that I am?” 19They answered and said, “John the Baptist, and others say Elijah; but others, that one of the prophets of old has risen.” 20And He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?” And Peter answered and said, “4The 5Christ of God.” 21But He 67warned them and instructed them not to tell this to anyone, 228saying, “9The Son of Man must suffer many things and be rejected by the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed and be raised on the third day.”

23And He was saying to them all, “10If anyone wants to come after Me, he must deny himself, take up his cross daily, and follow Me. 24For 11whoever wants to save his 12life will lose it, but whoever loses his 13life for My sake, this is the one who will save it. 25For what good does it do a person if he gains the whole world, but 14loses or forfeits himself? 2615For whoever is ashamed of Me and My words, the Son of Man will be ashamed of him when He comes in His glory and the glory of the Father and the holy angels. 27But I say to you truthfully, 16there are some of those standing here who will not taste death until they see the kingdom of God.”
