a Matthew 10:39 (Those who find their life will lose it, and those who lose
their life for my sake will find it.)

b Galatians 6:7-10 (Do not be deceived; God is not mocked, for you reap
whatever you sow. If you sow to your own flesh, you will reap corruption
from the flesh; but if you sow to the Spirit, you will reap eternal life from the
Spirit. So let us not grow weary in doing what is right, for we will reap at
harvest time, if we do not give up; So then, whenever we have an
opportunity, let us work for the good of all, and especially for those of the
family of faith.)

c Luke 8:13-14 (The ones on the rock are those who, when they hear the
word, receive it with joy. But these have no root; they believe for a while and
in a time of testing fall away. As for what fell among the thorns, these are
the ones who hear; but as they go on their way, they are choked by the
cares and riches and pleasures of life, and their fruit does not mature.)

d 1 John 2:15-17 (Do not love the world or the things in the world. The love
of the Father is not in those who love the world; for all that is in the world -
the desire of the flesh, the desire of the eyes, the pride in riches - comes not
from the Father but from the world. And the world and its desires are
passing away, but those who do the will of God live forever.)
Romans 12:2

e John 5:24-26 (Very truly, I tell you, anyone who hears my word and
believes him who sent me has eternal life, and does not come under
judgment, but has passed from death to life. Very truly, I tell you, the hour is
coming, and is now here, when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of
God, and those who hear will live. For just as the Father has life in himself,
so he has granted the Son also to have life in himself;)
