6 Bible Verses about Keeping Oneself Alive

I therefore direct you, not to be sollicitous, with regard to life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor with regard to the body, what clothes ye shall wear: Is not life it self a greater gift than food; and the body a greater gift than rayment?

for whoever would save his life, shall lose it: and he that would lose his life, out of love to me, shall save it.

he that would preserve his life, shall lose it: and he that exposeth his life for my sake, shall save it.

for he that would save his life, shall lose it; and he that would lose his life out of love to me and the gospel, he shall save it.

he that seeks to save his life, will expose it; and he that exposes his life, will preserve it.

by your perseverance you will save your souls.
