The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from King James Bible: after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
MAT 16:25 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever
will lose his life for my sake shall find it.
MAT 16:26 For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world,
and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his
soul?
MAT 16:27 For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with
his angels; and then he shall reward every man according to his works.
MAT 16:28 Verily I say unto you, There be some standing here, which
shall not taste of death, till they see the Son of man coming in his
kingdom.
