Dying is birth to true living. When we die to ourselves we experience the highest life ever possible for a human being. Jesus said few will find life. He says if we lose our life for the world we find true life. Self automatically offers death because we are born into sin and into separation from God. Only in God we can have life, the true life, but many will never experience what true real life even is. The life of a human being is in his spirit not in flesh. The flesh leads to death the Bible says, but the spirit gives LIFE. The spirit of many is not awakened because many are not born again throught the spirit as jesus taught. There is hope and a call to find and receive true life. Jesus came to give it.
How do we die to ourselves? First by being born again. Read here how to be born again: Be born again. Also, the scriptures below can also show you and guide you how to die to self. Be blessed.
