Sin’s “pleasures” stop at the grave, if not loooong before.
Salvation’s JOYS are now and everlasting.

Men have lied and killed, been so cruel
To have a few more miles to rule,
Thinking lands were cruelties worth.
Poor souls – – – “The meek shall inherit the earth!”

Bible is inexhaustible

Too many of us
read our Bibles “in survival mode,” as a stranded hunter might ratio out his last morsels.
God wants us to “enjoy” (as said at restaurants);
Wants us to consume the Bible as if It were a Buffet – eat all you want.
The Bible is inexhaustible.
– eab, 2/13/16
