"Ye are the salt of the earth: but and if the salt have lost her saltiness, what can be salted therewith? It is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden underfoot of men.

But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.

He that findeth his life, shall lose it: and he that loseth his life for my sake, shall find it.

And whosoever shall give unto one of these little ones, to drink a cup of cold water only, in the name of a disciple, I tell you of a truth, he shall not lose his reward."

He answered, and said, "I am not sent, but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel."

For whosoever will save his life, shall lose it. And whosoever shall lose his life for my sake, shall find it.

What shall it profit a man, though he should win all the whole world, if he lose his own soul? Or else, what shall a man give to redeem his soul again withal?

Yea, and the son of man is come to save that which is lost.
