Luke 9:25

“For what is a man advantaged if he gain the whole world, etc.] Or what profit will it be unto him? all the honours, riches, and enjoyments of it will be of no use and service to him if he himself is lost: and lose himself; or his own soul; for he that loses his soul, which is his better and immortal part, loses himself: or be cast away: finally, and eternally, or “suffer loss” of eternal happiness and glory; that is, perishes, and is destroyed with an everlasting destruction; (See Gill on “<401626>Matthew 16:26”).”
