Whoever Will Save His Life Shall Lose It

The paradox of life found through surrender.

Jesus teaches that clinging to life as possession destroys it, while losing life for him is the path to true life.

Scripture

25 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it.

Mark 8:35

35 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it; but whosoever shall lose his life for my sake and the gospel's, the same shall save it.

Luke 9:24

24 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: but whosoever will lose his life for my sake, the same shall save it.

John 12:25

25 He that loveth his life shall lose it; and he that hateth his life in this world shall keep it unto life eternal.
