On p. 80 of DU Pursah notes this statement along with Logion 95 as two mroe examples of NT 'prequels.' And she goes on to note that they may refer to other NT sayings they feel were authentic, but the meaning "will not always be the same for us as your are generally used to thinking of it." And that of course chimes in with the frequent corrections to the Bible and Christianity which Jesus offers especially in the early chapters of the Course.
For the rest, this statement seems to convey reassurance, along the lines of the Course dictum that “the outcome is as certain as God.” (ACIM:T-2.III.3:10)
