"Lay not up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt and thieves break through and steal; but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neIther moth nor rust corrupt and thieves cannot break through and steal. For where your treasure is there will your heart be also." [kjv]
WHEN WILL THE CHURCH WAKE UP AND REALISE THAT IT MUST NO LONGER AMASS EARTHLY WEALTH AND POSSESSIONS BUT SERIOUSLY CONSIDER THE WORDS OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST AND OBEY HIM !!!
Quite recently it was reported that a very large Church in the USA had suffered a theft of some $600,000 !!!
How could this have happened ???
Should not such a vast sum been secured in a Bank immediately?
LET US REMEMBER THAT......
MATERIALISM DEPENDS ON WHAT COMES IN....BUT PROSPERITY DEPENDS ON WHAT GOES OUT !!!
We pray that all funds are totally recovered and used for The Glory of God and the relief of those in need.
N-E-V-E-R-T-H-E-L-E-S-S-..............
WE MUST LOOK AT THIS SCRIPTURE AND ASK OURSELVES .....
[1] WHAT ARE TREASURES IN HEAVEN ???
[2] HOW DO WE ACQUIRE THEM ???
...As a ministry we believe that treasures in heaven are obtained by sacrificial giving to those who cannot repay the donor in this life.....
e.g. the destitute, poverty-sticken, bottom-of -the-pile, suffering, marginalised, ignored, rejected, ridiculed and disgarded by 'the world' ...people in society ...those without hope, help, or happiness...those who only know hardship and heartache.....
THE ONES WHO JESUS CAME TO SAVE.
SO, WE DO ALL WE CAN TO BE COUNTED AS SHEEP ONE DAY....RATHER THAN GOATS [MATTHEW 25]
OUR REWARD WILL COME WHEN WE MEET......
THE GREAT SHEPHERD....
OUR LORD AND SAVIOUR JESUS CHRIST.
MAY THE LORD BLESS YOU.
