Still on the side of road in Czsaer Philippi with his disciples, Jesus had just told them many things, including the cost of following him, and what it takes for someone to follow him now even today, which is self-denial. Placing the Lord Jesus, as our hope, and the one who will bring forth rest to our souls. The last thing he mentioned in Mark 8:38 was Mar 8:38 For 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.”
We went over a little more of that, and in realization that Jesus is indeed speaking to that generation that was living in that day in time, and interesting note is that in the Easton Dictionary, it mentions that In Deu 1:35, and Deu 2:14, a generation is a period of 38 years. Very interesting to consider, also in the Cyclopedia Dictionary it mentions to, In Deu 1:35; Deu 2:14, Moses cleary uses the term for thirty-eight years. Which is indeed over all intriguing and something to consider.
The verses that Moses wrote read as such:
Deu 1:35 ‘Not one of these men of this evil generation shall see the good land that I swore to give to your fathers,
Deu 2:14 And the time from our leaving Kadesh-barnea until we crossed the brook Zered was thirty-eight years, until the entire generation, that is, the men of war, had perished from the camp, as the LORD had sworn to them.
You should take these scriptures in to consideration because indeed they seem to me exteremly important! Because Jesus is stating the same thing about - the adulterous and sinful generation. An considering the mention of Moses himself of 38 is a very helpful insight from the bible itself.
Mar 9:1 And he said to them, “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.”
While Jesus was still standing there with the disciples and the group of people, He goes on to say to them - 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.
This statement made here by Jesus also is made in Matthew 16, and Luke 9.
Mat 16:28 Truly, I say to you, there are some standing here who will not taste death until they see the Son of Man coming in his kingdom.”
Luk 9:27 But I tell you truly, there are some standing here who will not taste death until they see the kingdom of God.”
These scripture add to the sufficentcy of the Lord and his words that uttered previously, about the sinful and adultress generation. By stating that some of those standing there would not taste death until they see the Son of Man coming in his kingdom.
Mar 9:1 And he said to them, “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.”
Now those standing there with him, which was probably the crowd that Jesus had called over and the disciples cleary suggest that there are some stnading here who will not taste death until they see the kingdom of God after it has come with power.
Jesus earlier in had been explaining that He as going to die, being rejected by the cheif preist, elders, and scribes in that day and handed over to death, but be resurrected again in three days.
Mar 8:31 And he began to teach them that the Son of Man must suffer many things and be rejected by the elders and the chief priests and the scribes and be killed, and after three days rise again.
In Hebrew Chapter 2: Verse 8 it says
Heb 2:9 But we see him who for a little while was made lower than the angels, namely Jesus, crowned with glory and honor because of the suffering of death, so that by the grace of God he might taste death for everyone.
They had seen the Word of God named Jesus who for a little while as made lower than the angels, crowned with glory and honor because of the suffering of death, so that by the grace of God he might taste death for everyone. Jesus constantly always has his Fathers will on his mind that He was going to go through and allow the Fathers will to be done for the ability to have all people to have the chance to come to the Lord Jesus Christ who paid for the world sin, through is death, which he died taste when the Nation of Israel rejected the cheif cornerstone and proclaimed that their King was Czaeser.
Joh 19:15 They cried out, “Away with him, away with him, crucify him!” Pilate said to them, “Shall I crucify your King?” The chief priests answered, “We have no king but Caesar.”
In Hebrews 1: Heb 1:13 And to which of the angels has he ever said, “Sit at my right hand until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet”? We never see God at any time ever say to any of the angels, sit at my right hand until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet.
In 1Co 15:25 For he must reign until he has put all his enemies under his feet.
1Co 15:26 The last enemy to be destroyed is death.
1Co 15:27 For “God has put all things in subjection under his feet.” But when it says, “all things are put in subjection,” it is plain that he is excepted who put all things in subjection under him.
1Co 15:28 When all things are subjected to him, then the Son himself will also be subjected to him who put all things in subjection under him, that God may be all in all.
You see here that Jesus must reign until he has put all his enemies under his feet. The last enemy to be destoryed is death. For God has put all things in subjection under his feet. But when it says "All things are put in subjection, it is plain that he is excepted who put all things in subjects under him. When all things are subjected to him, then the Son himself will also be subjected to God who put all things in subjection under Jesus, and that God may be all in all.
There were enemies of the Gospel back then, and also of Christ, and even the enemy Satan and his demons, and It seems as though that Jesus would reign until God has put all his enemies under his feet and the last of all the enemies would be death itself. Then after all this was completed that Jesus would hand everything back over to his Father, that God may be all in all. The disciples of the Lord, the Apostles go on forward spreading forth the news of the good news of the Lord that if they were to listen to what they had said they would in the end be enduring through the fire ' the persecution' that would end up falling upon them then in that time nearing the end of the generation they would indeed obtain salvation. It is a very different understanding from us today from believing and having salvation. Their as a church back then that was being set up in that age that was going to be the bride of Christ that was going to be pure, blameless, and spotless. Whenever though everything had been placed under the feet of the Lord Jesus Christ and the return of the Lord had come and everything had been completed, God would be all in all.
Rev 20:2 And he seized the dragon, that ancient serpent, who is the devil and Satan, and bound him for a thousand years,
Rev 20:3 and threw him into the pit, and shut it and sealed it over him, so that he might not deceive the nations any longer, until the thousand years were ended. After that he must be released for a little while.
Rev 20:4 Then I saw thrones, and seated on them were those to whom the authority to judge was committed. Also I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for the testimony of Jesus and for the word of God, and those who had not worshiped the beast or its image and had not received its mark on their foreheads or their hands. They came to life and reigned with Christ for a thousand years.
The Kingdom God is said to come without observance as it being physically seen yet it is experienced by and through faith, because the kingdom of God it stated by Jesus to be with-in, this of course was said while he was walking around before his death.
Luk 22:24 A dispute also arose among them, as to which of them was to be regarded as the greatest.
Luk 22:25 And he said to them, “The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them, and those in authority over them are called benefactors.
Luk 22:26 But not so with you. Rather, let the greatest among you become as the youngest, and the leader as one who serves.
Luk 22:27 For who is the greater, one who reclines at table or one who serves? Is it not the one who reclines at table? But I am among you as the one who serves.
Luk 22:28 “You are those who have stayed with me in my trials,
Luk 22:29 and I assign to you, as my Father assigned to me, a kingdom,
Luk 22:30 that you may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom and sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
You can see here that in Revelation 20 those who where at the table of the Kingdom of Christ (The Chosen Disciples), had sat on the thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
Mar 9:1 And he said to them, “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.”
Luk 17:20 Being asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God would come, he answered them, “The kingdom of God is not coming in ways that can be observed,
Luk 17:21 nor will they say, ‘Look, here it is!’ or ‘There!’ for behold, the kingdom of God is in the midst of you.”
With all of this information now here, you can see that the Jesus himself made it very clear that, the Kingdom of God is not coming in ways that cab be observed; Materially. They will not able to say there it is, or here it is. Because the Kingdom of God is in the midst of you. - Meaning the Kingdom of God would be spiritual and be with-in any person that is a believer.
