In Matthew 10:39, Jesus gives the same paradox about losing life to find it — a parallel saying within the same gospel.

Matthew 19:29 expands the promise — those who sacrifice relationships and possessions for Christ will be rewarded with eternal life, directly paralleling the principle of losing life to find it.

In Esther 4:16, Esther says 'if I perish, I perish' — a direct embodiment of losing one's life to save others.

In Mark 8:35, the same saying appears — whoever loses life for Jesus and the gospel will save it.

Luke 17:33 repeats the same paradox almost verbatim, reinforcing that self-preservation leads to loss, while sacrifice preserves life.

John 12:25 deepens the paradox: 'hating' one's life in this world leads to eternal life—a stronger formulation of the same principle.

Acts 20:24 directly embodies the principle: Paul counts his life as nothing to finish his mission, losing life for Christ's sake.

Revelation 12:11 echoes the same cost: believers overcome by not loving their lives unto death, losing life to gain victory.
