What is in it for us?

Then Peter said to Him, “We’ve given up everything to follow you. What then will there be for us?” 

Jesus said to them, “I assure you and most solemnly say to you, in the renewal [that is, the Messianic restoration and regeneration of all things] when the Son of Man sits on His glorious throne, you [who have followed Me] will also sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel. And everyone who has given up houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or children or property, for the sake of My Name [TRUTH] will receive a hundred times as much in return and will inherit eternal life. But many who are first [in this world] will be last [in the world to come]; and the last, first.”

— Matthew 19:27-30 AMP
