Matthew 16:27 For the Son of Man is going to come in the glory of His Father with His angels, and WILL THEN REPAY EVERY MAN ACCORDING TO HIS DEEDS.
Many people think this text is referring to the final judgment, but the next verse calls that common interpretation into question.
Matthew 16:28 Truly I say to you, there are some of those who are standing here who will not taste death until they see the Son of Man coming in His kingdom.
Listen as Pastor Matt examines the immediate context of these verses, the greater context of the book of Matthew, and the Old Testament texts to which these verses allude to show that this text is best seen as being fulfilled in the destruction of the temple in A.D. 70.
