John 12.24-25
24 Very truly I tell you, unless a kernel of wheat falls to the ground and Separates, it remains only a single seed. But if it separates, it produces many seeds. 25 Anyone who Protects their life will Ruin it, while anyone who hates their life in this world will keep it for eternal life.
Christianity was never meant to be you doing what you want with God’s help. You do what God wants with your help.
John 12.24-26
24 Very truly I tell you, unless a kernel of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains only a single seed. But if it dies, it produces many seeds. 25 Anyone who loves their life will lose it, while anyone who hates their life in this world will keep it for eternal life.
26 Whoever serves me must follow me; and where I am, my servant also will be. My Father will honor the one who serves me.
Luke 23.39-43
39 One of the criminals who hung there hurled insults at him: “Aren’t you the Messiah? Save yourself and us!” 40 But the other criminal rebuked him. “Don’t you fear God,” he said, “since you are under the same sentence? 41 We are punished justly, for we are getting what our deeds deserve. But this man has done nothing wrong.” 42 Then he said, “Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom.[d
]”43 Jesus answered him, “Truly I tell you, today you will be with me in paradise.”
