Luke 9:24-28

For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake, this is the one who will save it.

For what good does it do a person if he gains the whole world, but loses or forfeits himself?

For 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.

But I say to you truthfully, there are some of those standing here who will not taste death until they see the kingdom of God.” The Transfiguration

About eight days after these sayings, He took along Peter, John, and James, and went up on the mountain to pray.
