It was Simeon
Luk 2:25 And, behold, there was a man in Jerusalem, whose name was Simeon; and the same man was just and devout, waiting for the consolation of Israel: and the Holy Ghost was upon him.
Luk 2:26 And it was revealed unto him by the Holy Ghost, that he should not see death, before he had seen the Lord's Christ.

SIMEOM
There lived a man in Jerusalem named Simeon. The Spirit of God had told him he would not die until he had seen the Promised One. He was suddenly told to go to the Temple. When he arrived he saw Mary, Joseph and the baby, who were there to sacrifice to the Lord. He asked if he could see the child. Looking into the face of Jesus, he said, “Oh, Praise be to God!” Looking up, he said, “Lord, you can now let me die. These eyes have seen Your Salvation.”

Jesus was speaking to a group of decipleshen He said "some standing here" will see Jesus comming in all His glory. No one in particular. Peter asked if He (jesus) was referring to John. Jesus said to Peter "What is that to you. Follow me".
No one in particular was singled out.
Read the book.
"Seen the Christ"? ALL the deciples had seen (and were looking at) Jesus when He was on earth. So I assume you are asking about something that Jesus said.
With relation to Simeon, Anna was also in the same boat.
Once again Read The Book.

thats not fare. Why doesnt god let me live until i see christ? this guy instantly will get sent to heaven no matter what because he has proof and the likely hood of him not believing is slim.
