22
Jesus said that the Son of Man would have to suffer a lot. He would be rejected by the leaders, the chief priests, and the scribes. He would be killed, but on the third day he would come back to life.
23
He said to all of them, "Those who want to come with me must say no to the things they want, pick up their crosses every day, and follow me.
24
Those who want to save their lives will lose them. But those who lose their lives for me will save them.
25
What good does it do for people to win the whole world but lose their lives by destroying them?
26
If people are ashamed of me and what I say, the Son of Man will be ashamed of those people when he comes in the glory that he shares with the Father and the holy angels.
