38. And he that, if he be put to it, will not follow me under the cross, and suffer a shameful Death rather than deny me, or forsake faith and godliness, is not a true Christian, nor qualified for salvation; nor will I own him in the day of Judgment.
39. He that findeth his life shall lose it: and he that loseth his life for my sake, shall find it.
39. He that will save his life by denying me, or by any sin, shall lose it, for he shall lose everlasting life, and shall die as well as others, and perhaps as soon: And he that is put to death for faith and righteousness, hath not lost his life, whenas death is but his passage to life everlasting.
40. He that receiveth you, receiveth me; and he that receiveth me, receiveth him that sent me.
