Profit vs Your Soul

What sense does it make if you have everything you can have and not go to heaven when you die?  What sense is it to be a millionaire or billionaire and be miserable and not know where your soul is going when you close your eyes for the last time?  Some people believe in the after-life where you come back better than you were before.  Some believe that they return as someone or something else.  Truth be told, once to die then the judgment.  Your judgment will be according to your works here on earth.  Not for what you have, who you know, how much money you accumulated and not even how pretty you are.  You might as well throw your pride right out the window.

People walk around in this world thinking that all you have to do is be a good person and they will go to heaven when they die.  Wrong!  Rich people think that all their wealth and giving a little here and there (just to say that they’ve done something is all they need to do) Wrong!  The love of money is the root of all evil.  Did you know, it’s harder for a camel to get through the eye of a needle than it is for a rich man to get into heaven.  The love of money can really hurt you in the end.

1^st John 2:15-17

15 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.  16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.  17 And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.

Man is designed to need God.  Most people who have wealth don’t seem to acknowledge God or give him the time of day.

Mark 8:34-38

34   And when he had called the people unto him with his disciples also, he said unto them, Whosoever will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross and follow me.  35 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it; but whosoever shall lose his life for my sake and the gospel’s, the same shall save it.  36 For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?  37 Or, what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?  38  Whosoever therefore shall be ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation, of him also shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he cometh in the glory of his Father with the holy angels.

What will it be for you?  PROFIT/GAIN vs. YOUR SOUL.  There shouldn’t be any problem deciding what you should do.    

Revelation 20:15 says it best….

15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.

Can you imagine?
