AMPLIFIED 2015 | Matthew 16:28 ¶ "I assure you and most solemnly say to you, there are some of those standing here who will not taste death before they see the Son of Man coming in His kingdom." |
Bible Question:
Does anyone have an opinion of Matthew 16:28 "Verily I say unto you, There be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom." Does Jesus mean the physical death of the people that were there with him or does it mean something else? This sounds a little confusing because it's been so long since then can anyone clarify this for me? |
Bible Answer: some may say different things about this scripture but for me there are only two things, 1. a prediction of his transfiguration ,Mk.9;1,Lk,9;27,2Pet.1;16., 2.a prediction of future events when Christ appears to rapture the church. In acts 6;15 it talks about Stephen seeing Jesus beside God in His Kingdom. This is what I look at as far as this scripture is concerned, Stephen, and John being shown Christ glory before they died. i hope this helps. |
