Consoling Promises
Mark 14:28
But after that I am risen, I will go before you into Galilee.


Such a promise as was never heard of before — that a dead man shall rise within a few days, and promise to do so. Note the consolations with which our Lord sustains His disciples.

1. That there shall be a certain end of this evil ready to swallow them up.

2. That there shall be a short end after a few days; three or four.

3. That there shall be a happy end. For

(1)  Christ should rise again from the dead with power and glory.

(2)  Whereas they have run away from Him, He will come to them again.

(3)  Though they have left their Shepherd, yet He will become their Shepherd again, and guide them as a shepherd goes before his sheep.

(Dr. Thomas Taylor.)
