not perish but have everlasting life.

May I never boast except in the cross
of our Lord Jesus Christ...
Galatians 6:14

 

And being found in appearance as a man, he
humbled himself by becoming obedient to
death - even death on a cross!
Philippians 2:8

 

Those who want to impress people by means of the
flesh are trying to compel you to be circumcised. The
only reason they do this is to avoid being
persecuted for the cross of Christ.
Galatians 6:12

 

For, as I have often told you before and now tell you again
even with tears, many live as enemies of the cross of Christ.
Their destiny is destruction, their god is their stomach,
and their glory is in their shame. Their
mind is set on earthly things.
Philippians 3:18-19
