Never ever trade your eternal wellbeing for transient ephemerals<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Deuteronomy 32:29 O that they were wise, that they understood this, that they would consider their latter end!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Matthew 6:33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Matthew 16:26 For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Beloved Brethren, your great achievement on this side of heaven is to acquire the eternal visa to live eternally with God at the end of your life. Don’t ever forget.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The requisite for you toacquire this visa are : 1. Living daily with eternity in view. 2. Conscientiously avoid gaining anything, no matter the value at the expense of your precious undying soul. 3. Determinedly avoid anything and anyone that can make you spend eternity in hell fire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Our Master and Lord said if you here His sayings and do them, you are a wise Christian.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Matthew 7:24 Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock: 7:25 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
His most important saying in the Bible is this: listen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mark 9:43 And if thy hand offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life maimed, than having two hands to go into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched: 9:44 Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched. 9:45 And if thy foot offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter halt into life, than having two feet to be cast into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched: 9:46 Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched. 9:47 And if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out: it is better for thee to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye, than having two eyes to be cast into hell fire: 9:48 Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It means no matter the gains you might attain through acquiring a particular earthly achievement, avoid it determinedly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Globally, our Master and Lord identified majority of His churches, that have fallen a victim of this pitiable misfortune and exhorted them to repent, because of its eternal consequences. Listen <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Revelation 3:14 And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God; 3:15 I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot. 3:16 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth. 3:17 Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked: 3:18 I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see. 3:19 As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent. 3:20 Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me. 3:21 To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne. 3:22 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He went further to advise you to remember Lot’s wife and avoid her misdoing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Luke 17:32 Remember Lot’s wife.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Luke 21:34 And take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares of this life, and so that day come upon you unawares. 21:35 For as a snare shall it come on all them that dwell on the face of the whole earth. 21:36 Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The singular undoing of Lot’s wife is cares of this life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You are a wise Christian, endeavor to follow Jesus wholeheartedly in all things and at all times, till He comes and don’t follow Him, just because you want to accomplish or attain any earthly transient ephemeral.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
1 Corinthians 15:19 If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
His grace will be sufficient for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
