The Value of Heaven
The Value of Heaven
(NIV)
20 But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moths and vermin do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. 21 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
(NIV)
17 Command those who are rich in this present world not to be arrogant nor to put their hope in wealth, which is so uncertain, but to put their hope in God, who richly provides us with everything for our enjoyment. 18 Command them to do good, to be rich in good deeds, and to be generous and willing to share. 19 In this way they will lay up treasure for themselves as a firm foundation for the coming age, so that they may take hold of the life that is truly life.
Three choices, and two of them are really bad. Hell, nothing, or Heaven.
Heaven is eternal, this world is temporary and we have temporary bodies that die.
(NIV)
20 But our citizenship is in heaven. And we eagerly await a Savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ, 21 who, by the power that enables him to bring everything under his control, will transform our lowly bodies so that they will be like his glorious body.
It’s going to be more amazing than we can even dream up. Not only that, there will be no more crying, no more pain, no more losing loved ones...
God will be there, and we will know Him just as we are fully known by Him.
We can be with Him for forever.
Jesus is the way to Heaven
Jesus is the way to Heaven
We have a sin problem
God sent His son - His only son, to pay the price for our sin, He took our punishment so we wouldn’t have to go to the bad place.
He rose again and now sits at the right hand of God, telling God that you are His and He’s making a place for you right now to be with Him
He tells God on your behalf not to see your sins because you believe in Him.
As long as you believe Him and that He’s your Lord and Savior, you have access to Heaven. Jesus is The Treasure!
