Matthew 16:23-25

Worldwide English (New Testament)

²³ But Jesus turned to Peter and said, `Get away from me Satan! You are trying to make me do wrong. You are not thinking the way God thinks, but the way people think.'

²⁴ Then Jesus told his disciples, `If anyone wants to come with me, he must leave what he himself wants to do. He must be willing to carry his cross and come with me.

²⁵ Anyone who wants to keep his life will lose it. And anyone who gives up his life for my sake will find it.
