Jesus replied, “I assure you that when the world is made new and the Son of Man sits upon his glorious throne, you who have been my followers will also sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel. And everyone who has given up houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or children or property, for my sake, will receive a hundred times as much in return and will inherit eternal life.

CF864 STRENGTH and CONDITIONING

 But many who are the greatest now will be least important then, and those who seem least important now will be the greatest then.
-Matthew 19:30

When Jesus told the disciples they would be greatly rewarded in heaven for what they had given up on earth (Matthew 19:27-29), He was making a contrast with the rich young ruler, who was unwilling to give up much of anything for Christ’s sake (verses 16-22). The “last” in this world—the disciples in their poverty—would be “first” in the kingdom of heaven. Conversely, the “first” in this world—the self-sufficient rich—would be the last to find the kingdom.


I may not be perfect, but Jesus thinks I'm worth dying for.
