Matthew 26:29

What Does This Mean?
Jesus is speaking and saying that he won't drink wine again until they all share a special meal together in heaven. This shows his promise to meet with his followers again after his death.
Explained for Children
Imagine you're having your favorite juice, but Jesus says, 'I'll only have this yummy drink again when we all get to Heaven and have an amazing party there!' It's like saying he will see us in a special place where everything is perfect.
Historical Background

Living It Out Today
