I'm studying 1 Peter right now...this verse has consumed my thoughts the past few days...
Here's a thought centered around those two verses...what are you doing today...what are you investing your life in today that will last forever? What are you doing today that will really matter in 10, 20, 30 years? There are two things today that will last forever...your soul (and others' souls) and the Word of God. Everything else will crumble and pass away. Your body...will pass away. Your riches will be gone in 100 years or less. Your earthly possessions will be outdated in 5 years, irrelevant in 20 years and completely gone in probably 50 years and will mean nothing to anyone in less time than that. But...your soul...and the soul of your family, friends and neighbors...will have just begun to live in 10,000 years. And the Word of God, will still be relevant, active and perfect...forever. So...in light of that. What are you doing this day...that will still matter in eternity? What are you worrying about...that won't matter tomorrow? It all will eventually fade...every bit of everything. What are you 'storing up' for the long haul? Think about it.
You can see the forest for the trees. You sit on stage, which is an endorsement, and listen to Ed lie and slander. If Ed says it, you believe it. Being at Second will hurt your children in the long run. Second is a deacons and ministers for-profit and not a church. You worship at the alter of Ed Young.
ReplyDeleteTry a REAL Baptist church. You won't make as much or live in that expensive house, but your family will survive. NOBODY stays at Second long and doesn't get dirty. Lee Maxcy is going to become the church pimp after Ed is fired. You don't understand, but we know what Lee is willing to do.
