What do you have to lose by coming to Jesus,
One has nothing to lose by going to Jesus. They have nothing to gain either. Realistically, Jesus never had anything to give.
That's right, you have noting to lose by accepting Jesus Christ as savior. What you gain would be eternal life with the savior.
To truly follow Christ means He has become everything to us; we have to apply the truths we learn from His Word and live as if Jesus walked beside us in person. As we acknowledging Christ as Lord and savior we gain eternity with Him but to forsake Him we would have a life apart from him, you don't want to be separated from Christ. So what you have to loose? You prefer spending eternity in Heaven/ away from Christ?
Jesus give His life so that you and I can spent eternity with Him and the father in heaven. He was the sacrificial lamb of God His father for our sins.
Philippians 1:19-24
19 For I know that this shall turn to my salvation through your prayer, and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ,
20 According to my earnest expectation and my hope, that in nothing I shall be ashamed, but that with all boldness, as always, so now also Christ shall be magnified in my body, whether it be by life, or by death.
21 For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.
