Not all will die!

If you are some sort of Bible scholar, or theologian you will read Matthew 16:28 and think 'yes, of course.' But if you are just an average Joe like me you will read those same words of Jesus and think 'what an earth is he going on about?' However we all know that when we spend time with God and his Word he occasionally reveals something to us. This happened to me this morning whilst I was meditating on Romans 6 again (good spiritual discipline that!) and thinking about death 'we will all die in these bodies' I thought, but then the words of Matthew 16:28 came to me when Jesus said some will not experience death before he returns. Then these words finally made sense to me; we will not all die, some will be here to greet Him on His glorious return, but we shall all live! I still have several questions about Matthew 16:28, but I think I am lot happier now that I believe God had revealed some if the wisdom behind Jesus' words.
