Luke 9:18-27
\n18 Once when Jesus was praying alone, with only the disciples near him, he asked them, \u201cWho do the crowds say that I am?\u201d 19 They answered, \u201cJohn the Baptist; but others, Elijah; and still others, that one of the ancient prophets has arisen.\u201d 20 He said to them, \u201cBut who do you say that I am?\u201d Peter answered, \u201cThe Messiah of God.\u201d
\n21 He sternly ordered and commanded them not to tell anyone, 22 saying, \u201cThe Son of Man must undergo great suffering, and be rejected by the elders, chief priests, and scribes, and be killed, and on the third day be raised.\u201d
\n23 Then he said to them all, \u201cIf any want to become my followers, let them deny themselves and take up their cross daily and follow me. 24 For those who want to save their life will lose it, and those who lose their life for my sake will save it. 25 What does it profit them if they gain the whole world, but lose or forfeit themselves? 26 Those who are ashamed of me and of my words, of them the Son of Man will be ashamed when he comes in his glory and the glory of the Father and of the holy angels. 27 But truly I tell you, there are some standing here who will not taste death before they see the kingdom of God.\u201d
