Listening to good advice is worth much more than jewelry made of gold.
And what do you benefit if you gain the whole world but lose your own soul? Is anything worth more than your soul?
Rather, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God’s sight.
Your faith will be like gold that has been tested in a fire. And these trials will prove that your faith is worth much more than gold that can be destroyed. They will show that you will be given praise and honor and glory when Jesus Christ returns.
Indeed, I count everything as loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord. For his sake I have suffered the loss of all things and count them as rubbish, in order that I may gain Christ
But my life is worth nothing to me unless I use it for finishing the work assigned me by the Lord Jesus—the work of telling others the Good News about the wonderful grace of God.
Proverbs 25:12 Matthew 16:26 1 Peter 3:4 1 Peter 1:7 Philippians 3:8 Acts 20:24
A faith that costs nothing and demands nothing is worth nothing.
