15 And to the people He said, »Take care, be on your guard against all covetousness, for no one's life consists in the superabundance of his possessions.«
36 Why, what does it benefit a man to gain the whole world and forfeit his life?
13 Which of you is a wise and well-instructed man? Let him prove it by a right life with conduct guided by a wisely teachable spirit.
25 For this reason I charge you not to be over-anxious about your lives, inquiring what you are to eat or what you are to drink, nor yet about your bodies, inquiring what clothes you are to put on. Is not the life more precious than its food, and the body than its clothing?
26 Look at the birds which fly in the air: they do not sow or reap or store up in barns, but your Heavenly Father feeds them: are not you of much greater value than they?
27 Which of you by being over-anxious can add a single foot to his height?
38 He who believes in me, from within him –as the Scripture has said– rivers of living water shall flow.«
10 For »He who wishes to be well-satisfied with life and see happy days– let him restrain his tongue from evil, and his lips from deceitful words;
11 Let him turn from evil, and do good; Let him inquire for peace and go in pursuit of it.
20 I have been crucified with Christ, and it is no longer I that live, but Christ that lives in me; and the life which I now live in the body I live through faith in the Son of God who loved me and gave Himself up to death on my behalf.

14 but may rather be restored. Persistently strive for peace with all men, and for that growth in holiness apart from which no one will see the Lord.
6 »I am the Way,« replied Jesus, »and the Truth and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
3 And in this consists the Life of the Ages–in knowing Thee the only true God and Jesus Christ whom Thou hast sent.
11 and to vie with one another in eagerness for peace, every one minding his own business and working with his hands, as we ordered you to do:
12 so as to live worthy lives in relation to outsiders, and not be a burden to any one.
2 And do not follow the customs of the present age, but be transformed by the entire renewal of your minds, so that you may learn by experience what God's will is–that will which is good and beautiful and perfect.
23 For the wages paid by Sin are death; but God's free gift is the Life of the Ages bestowed upon us in Christ Jesus our Lord.
25 »I am the Resurrection and the Life,« said Jesus; »he who believes in me, even if he has died, he shall live;
26 and every one who is living and is a believer in me shall never, never die. Do you believe this?«
23 Whatever you are doing, let your hearts be in your work, as a thing done for the Lord and not for men.
24 For you know that it is from the Lord you will receive the inheritance as your reward. Christ is the Master whose bondservants you are.
7 for we are living a life of faith, and not one of sight.
10 The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy: I have come that they may have Life, and may have it in abundance.
12 Blessed is he who patiently endures trials; for when he has stood the test, he will gain the victor's crown –even the crown of Life– which the Lord has promised to those who love Him.
34 Then calling to Him the crowd and also His disciples, He said to them, »If any one is desirous of following me, let him ignore self and take up his cross, and so be my follower.
35 For whoever is bent on securing his life will lose it, but he who loses his life for my sake, and for the sake of the Good News, will secure it.
36 Why, what does it benefit a man to gain the whole world and forfeit his life?
37 For what could a man give to buy back his life?
38 Every one, however, who has been ashamed of me and of my teachings in this faithless and sinful age, of him the Son of Man also will be ashamed when He comes in His Father's glory with the holy angels.«
15 Therefore be very careful how you live and act. Let it not be as unwise men, but as wise.
16 Buy up your opportunities, for these are evil times.
35 »I am the bread of Life,« replied Jesus; »he who comes to me shall never hunger, and he who believes in me shall never, never thirst.
