In further answer to Peter's question, Jesus said:

*"Why do you still look for the Son of Man to sit upon the throne of David and expect that the material dreams of the Jews will be fulfilled? Have I not told you all these years that my kingdom is not of this world? The things that you now look down upon are coming to an end, but this will be a new beginning out of which the gospel of the kingdom will go to all the world and this '''salvation''' will spread to all peoples. And when the kingdom shall have come to its full fruition, be assured that the Father in heaven will not fail to visit you with '''an enlarged revelation of truth''' and '''an enhanced demonstration of righteousness''', even as he has already bestowed upon this world him who became the '''prince of darkness''', and then '''Adam''', who was followed by '''Melchizedek''', and in these days, the '''Son of Man'''. And so will my Father continue to manifest his '''mercy''' and show forth his '''love''', even to this dark and evil world. So also will I, after my Father has invested me with all power and authority, continue to follow your fortunes and to guide in the affairs of the kingdom by the presence of my spirit, who shall shortly be poured out upon all flesh. Even though I shall thus be present with you in spirit, I also promise that I will sometime return to this world, where I have lived this life in the flesh and achieved the experience of simultaneously revealing God to man and leading man to God. Very soon must I leave you and take up the work the Father has entrusted to my hands, but be of good courage, for I will sometime return. In the meantime, my '''Spirit of the Truth''' of a universe shall comfort and guide you.

*"You behold me now in weakness and in the flesh, but when I return, it shall be with power and in the spirit. The eye of flesh beholds the Son of Man in the flesh, but only the eye of the spirit will behold the Son of Man glorified by the Father and appearing on earth in his own name.
