MARK, CHAPTER  8 VERSES 35-38

35″Whoever would preserve his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake and the gospel’s will preserve it. 36 What profit does a man show who gains the whole world and destoys himself in the process? 37 What can a man offor in exchange for his life! 38 If anyone in this faithless and corrupt age is ashamed of me and my doctrine, the Son of Man will be ashamed of him when he comes with the holy angels in his Father’s glory.”
