Matthew 10:39

He that finds his life shall lose it: and he that loses his life for my sake shall find it.
All Commentaries on Matthew 10:39 Go To Matthew 10

Hilary of Poitiers

AD 368
For they who have esteemed domestic affection of relations higher than God, are unworthy to inherit good things to come. Or; “They that are Christ’s have crucified the body with its vices and lusts.” And he is unworthy of Christ who does not take up His cross, in which we suffer with Him, die with Him, are buried and rise again with Him, and follow his Lord, purposing to live in newness of spirit in this sacrament of the faith. Thus the gain of life brings death, the loss of life brings salvation; for bythe sacrifice of this short life we gain the reward of immortality.
