For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for me will find it. What good will it be for a man if he gains the whole world, yet forfeits his soul? Or what can a man give in exchange for his soul? For the Son of Man is going to come in his Father's glory with his angels, and then he will reward each person according to what he has done."

Greater deaths 3. By embracing Christ's cross, I will find my life A. "Will find his life" in this world B. Transition: But horrific things happen here on earth C. "Will find his life" in the world to come 4. By refusing Christ's cross, I will lose my life A. Great temptation to "save" it B. "Will lose one's life" in this world C. "Will lose one's life" in the world to come #bricklanecommunitychurch #bricklanechurch #elverson #pennsylvania #worship #sermon #lordhavemercy, #lordssupper #matthew
