John 12:25

Greeks Seeking Jesus

²⁴ verily, verily I say unto you, when a corn of wheat is thrown into the ground, there it lies a single grain unless it dies: but if it die, it becomes very fruitful. ²⁵ he that loveth his life, shall lose it: but he that sacrifices his life in this world, shall preserve it to eternity. ²⁶ if any man would serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there also shall my servant be: whoever serves me, him will my father reward.
