'Life' in the Bible

Then he said to them, "Is it lawful to do good on the Sabbath, or evil, to save a life or destroy it?" But they were silent.

For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake and for the gospel will save it.

For what benefit is it for a person to gain the whole world, yet forfeit his life?

What can a person give in exchange for his life?

If your hand causes you to sin, cut it off! It is better for you to enter into life crippled than to have two hands and go into hell, to the unquenchable fire.

If your foot causes you to sin, cut it off! It is better to enter life lame than to have two feet and be thrown into hell.

Now as Jesus was starting out on his way, someone ran up to him, fell on his knees, and said, "Good teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?"

who will not receive in this age a hundred times as much -- homes, brothers, sisters, mothers, children, fields, all with persecutions -- and in the age to come, eternal life.

For even the Son of Man did not come to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many."
