Mark 10:32-34

32They were on their way up to Jerusalem, with Jesus leading the way, and the disciples were astonished, while those who followed were afraid. Again he took the Twelve aside and told them what was going to happen to him. 33"We are going up to Jerusalem," he said, "and the Son of Man will be betrayed to the chief priests and teachers of the law. They will condemn him to death and will hand him over to the Gentiles, 34who will mock him and spit on him, flog him and kill him. Three days later he will rise."

Jesus never lies. He was upfront in telling his followers in verse 30 that to follow him would bring them persecutions. He also tells them in verse 33 that he would be tortured and killed. BUT he also told them that he would rise again. AND he told them that they would receive eternal life and treasures in heaven.

We were able to see that all he foretold for life on earth came true. We must have faith that all he foretold for our future life also holds true.
