Jesus says to him, I am the way, and the truth, and the life.  No one comes to the Father unless by me (John 14: 6).

So if any one [be] in Christ, [there is] a new creation; the old things have passed away; behold all things have become new (2 Corinthians 5: 17).

"Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him (1 John 2:15)."

And this is the witness, that God has given to us eternal life; and this life is in his Son.  He that has the Son has life: he that has not the Son of God has not life (1 John 5: 11-12).

Come to me, all ye who labour and are burdened, and *I* will give you rest.
Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me;  for I am meek and lowly in heart; and ye shall find rest to your souls;  for my yoke is easy, and my burden is light (Matthew 11: 28-30).

For what does a man profit, if he should gain the whole world and suffer the loss of his soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul (Matthew 16: 26)?

For thus saith the Lord Jehovah, the Holy One of Israel: In returning and rest shall ye be saved, in quietness and confidence shall be your strength (Isaiah 30: 15).
