24Then Jesus said to his disciples, “If anyone wishes to walk in my steps, they must renounce self, and take up their cross, and follow me.
25For whoever wishes to save his life will lose it, and whoever, for my sake, loses his life will find it.
26What good will it do a person to gain the whole world, if he forfeits his life? Or what will a person give that is of equal value with his life?
