Dear Friends,

Did you know that there is a battle that you must not lose? If you lose it, you lose everything. Today’s devotional will explain. God bless you.

Because of Calvary,

John Janney

• Mark 8:35-37

  Mark 8:35-37   English Standard Version (ESV)
  35 For whoever would save his life[a] will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake and the gospel’s will save it. 36 For what does it profit a man to gain the whole world and forfeit his soul? 37 For what can a man give in return for his soul?

Mark 8:35-37

“A man who becomes a bankrupt once, may start in business again, and yet grow rich. The commander who loses a battle, may gather together his troops again, and yet lead them on to victory. But if the battle of this life be lost, woe worth the day! It is lost forever; there is no hope of any change to all eternity.”

[Charles Haddon Spurgeon, The Metropolitan Tabernacle Pulpit XLIV, (London: Passmore and Alabaster, 1898), p. 296]
