| So let us stop going over the basic teachings about Christ again and again. Let us go on instead and become mature in our understanding.

| If you try to hang on to your life, you will lose it. But if you give up your life for my sake and for the sake of the Good News, you will save it. | For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake and the gospel’s will save it. |
