“Whoever is ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation, of him will the Son of Man also be ashamed when he comes in the glory of his Father with the holy angels… Truly, I say to you, there are some standing here who will not taste death until they see the kingdom of God after it has come with power.”
Mark 8:38; 9:1
Jesus is referring to the transfiguration. When Peter, James, and John saw the radiance of Jesus’ glory. They saw Him as we will all see Him when He comes in power and glory to gather His people.
"Now I know in part. Then I shall know fully, even as I have been fully known", (1 Cor. 13:12).
Now we believe that God works for our good in all things (Rom. 8:28). Then we will see it. On that day we will say, “He has done all things well” (Mk. 7:37).
Jesus will complete what He has begun. Every question you have ever had for God will be answered. He will wipe all tears from your eyes, and you will say, “Now I see everything clearly.”
That is the promise of Jesus Christ in the gospel.
What do you need most today: rebuke for not seeing, correction for seeing only in part, or the glorious promise that we will one day see clearly?
