John 10:28

28 aI give them eternal life, and bthey will never perish, and cno one will snatch them out of my hand.

Romans 14:8

8For if we live, we live to the Lord, and if we die, we die to the Lord. So then, dwhether we live or whether we die, we are the Lord’s.

1 Corinthians 3:22-23

22whether Paul or Apollos or Cephas or the world or life or death or the present or the futureall are yours, 23and eyou are Christ’s, and fChrist is God’s.

1 Corinthians 15:54-58

54When the perishable puts on the imperishable, and the mortal puts on immortality, then shall come to pass the saying that is written:

gDeath is swallowed up in victory.”
55 h“O death, where is your victory?
O death, where is your sting?”
56The sting of death is sin, and ithe power of sin is the law. 57But thanks be to God, jwho gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

58 kTherefore, my beloved brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in lthe work of the Lord, knowing that in the Lord myour labor is not in vain.

2 Corinthians 5:4-8

4For while we are still in this tent, we groan, being burdenednot that we would be unclothed, but that we would be further clothed, so that what is mortal nmay be swallowed up by life. 5He who has prepared us for this very thing is God, owho has given us the Spirit as a guarantee.

6So we are always of good courage. We know that pwhile we are at home in the body we are away from the Lord, 7for qwe walk by faith, not rby sight. 8Yes, we are of good courage, and we swould rather be away from the body and at home with the Lord.

Philippians 1:20-23

20as it is my eager expectation and hope tthat I will not be at all ashamed, but that with full ucourage now as always Christ vwill be honored in my body, wwhether by life or by death. 21For to me xto live is Christ, and to die is gain. 22If I am to live in the flesh, that means fruitful labor for me. Yet which I shall choose I cannot tell. 23 yI am hard pressed between the two. My desire is zto depart and aabe with Christ, for that is far better.
