Matthew 10:37-39
Amplified Bible, Classic Edition
37 He who loves [and [a]takes more pleasure in] father or mother more than [in] Me is not worthy of Me; and he who loves [and takes more pleasure in] son or daughter more than [in] Me is not worthy of Me;
38 And he who does not take up his cross and follow Me [[b]cleave steadfastly to Me, conforming wholly to My example in living and, if need be, in dying also] is not worthy of Me.
39 Whoever finds his [[c]lower] life will lose it [the higher life], and whoever loses his [lower] life on My account will find it [the higher life].
