Jesus answered him, 'You said it yourself. But I'm telling you this — from now on, you're going to see the Son of Man sitting right next to God in power, coming through the clouds of heaven.'

Jesus replied, 'Okay, I've got a question for you first. Answer mine, and then I'll tell you where my authority comes from.'

When Jesus heard how thoughtfully the man answered, he told him, 'You're getting close to understanding what God's kingdom is all about.' After that, nobody else had the nerve to ask Jesus any more questions.
