God OR mammon?

Mat 6. 24

“No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other;

or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other.

Ye cannot serve God and mammon.”

God or satan?

Who do you believe: God or satan? “Me? I’m neutral.” Pretend all you want friend – no one is neutral. You, at this very moment, believe (and therefore follow) the Creator or follow a fallen creature, satan. You believe the One who as never lied, or the arch enemy of God who is known as a liar. – – – the choice is yours; as is the destiny beyond that choice.

A story is told of a conversation. An older man asked a youth about his plans. He responded, “I plan to graduate from school.” The older man asked, “What then?” The youth’s quick response, “I plan to go to college.” “What then?” “After I graduate from college I hope to find a good company and work my way up.” “What then?” “I suppose I’ll get married and build a house.” “What then?” “Well, I’ll probably have a family.” Again the question, “What then?” “I hope to become a great leader in my business.” “What then?” “After a successful career I’ll retire and travel.” “What then?” “I – I guess I’ll die.” “What then?”

POEM or BOOK

 

Many a man has had small sway,

Geographically bound, his-life-long-day;

So – the world – what did he give ’m?

He wrote a poem or book, that out-lived ’m.

Literally

Heaven will have a multitude no man can number

(Rev 7.9) – taken literally, a man in a life-time can’t count it. Mr X counts 1 person per second for a minuet=60. He counts on for 60 minuets=3600. He counts for 6 hrs., takes lunch & counts 6 more hrs.=43,200. Tomorrow Mr X counts another 43,200 & does this a 6 day wk=259,200. He counts the same every wk. for 25 wks, takes 2 weeks vacation (much needed) and counts 25 more; a yr yields 12,960,000. If Mr X started at 16 and retired at 76 his count is far less than 1 billion. If he retired at 91 his count is still less than a billion – a multitude no MAN can number.
