Matthew, 16:28...

{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.

There are some who argue, is it means Jesus lied.
For example the band called 'salves wage'. They have a song written about this one. Called, Kingdom Come.

I know Jesus Christ is faithful and true, who is not a liar. But, I would like to hear this from you.

Well, IMO 1/3 of the jews who survive the Tribulation will enter the Kingdom with flesh and blood to repopulate he earth/

Also I see the unrighteous Sheep from Sheep/Goat Judgement which comes from the nations ( gentiles ), to repopulate the earth saved by works and not grace.

Math 16:28, There be some standing here, which shall not taste of death till they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom. In the very next verses, Math 17:1-2, Jesus took Peter, James, and John up into a mountain and was transfigured before them. Jesus did not lie!

Very good Randy

It is my understanding the transfiguration is the Ressurrection/Rapture also

The Transfiguration is the story of the Resurrection/Rapture

After six days Jesus took with him Peter, James and John the brother of James, and led them up a high mountain by themselves. There he was transfigured before them. His face shone like the sun, and his clothes became as white as the light. Just then there appeared before them Moses and Elijah, talking with Jesus.

After six days----after 6000 years

Peter, James and John----Those who would see the Kingdom before they died

Moses represents the dead and Elijah the living

Peter said to Jesus, “Rabbi, it is good for us to be here. Let us put up three shelters—one for you, one for Moses and one for Elijah.” 6 (He did not know what to say, they were so frightened.) ------ Three Booths or tabernacles

Places God has for his people who as a seed produced a crop of thirty, sixty, hundred

Paradise, Heaven, and the city of God

Transfiguration----Resurrection/Rapture

While he was still speaking, a bright cloud covered them, and a voice from the cloud said, “This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased. Listen to him!”

Meeting the Lord in the air--clouds

Another Great Parable

JOHN GILL said:

"All the children of the world, , "taste the taste of death".''

That is, die:

till they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom; which is not to be understood of his personal coming in his kingdom in the last day, when he will judge quick and dead; for it cannot be thought, that any then present should live to that time, but all tasted of death long before, as they have done; for the story of John's being alive, and to live till then, is fabulous, and grounded on a mistake which John himself has rectified at the close of his Gospel: nor of the glorious transfiguration of Christ, the account of which immediately follows; when he was seen by Peter, James, and John, persons now present; for that, at most, was but an emblem and a pledge of his future glory: rather, of the appearance of his kingdom, in greater glory and power, upon his resurrection from the dead, and his ascension to heaven; when the Spirit was poured down in an extraordinary manner, and the Gospel was preached all over the world; was confirmed by signs and wonders, and made effectual to the conversion and salvation of many souls; which many then present lived to see, and were concerned in: though it seems chiefly to have regard to his coming, to show his regal power and authority in the destruction of the Jews; when those his enemies that would not he should reign over them, were ordered to be brought and slain before him; and this the Apostle John, for one, lived to be a witness of.

I am so happy I asked this question.

Absolutely amazing responses I couldn't add anything if I tried well done everyone

Key principle in scripture...keep reading!

Context...Context.. Context

Another example: Jesus saying 'the Father is greater than I'

So many take that to mean Jesus is not God...

But what happens not long after? When you...keep reading?

He ascends to equality with the Father in heaven.

The difference was just positional.

You will recall the mount of transfiguration where Lord Jesus appeared with Moses and Elijah (Matthew 17:1-9). Most commentators believe that this is what Lord Jesus referred to. Peter, John and James saw the vision and heard God's affirmation of Jesus as the well pleasing Son of God.

When two disciples met Jesus on the road to Emmaus, they did not realise who He was. No one will have any doubts when Lord Jesus returns next time. He is now glorified. He will come as the victorious, conquering King of Kings and Lord of Lord.

Ignorant and evil hearted people always seek to cast doubt on God's word. They are tools of the devil. Satan's first assault on Adam and Eve was to cast doubt on God's word and call Him a liar. It worked then and it works now. Don't fall for it.

My answer to your question is : read Acts chapter 6+7 , especially chapter 7 verses 55+56 . The answers to all Biblical questions can be found....in the Bible .
