"He is no fool who gives what he cannot keepto gain what he cannot lose."

-Martyred Missionary Jim Elliot

OUR CULTURE may lead us to believe that money, employment and healthcare are essential to purposeful living. But they are important only whilewe are alive, and when we die, they mean nothing. The condition of our

eternal souls is far more important.We can have great wealth, secure jobs and total health care, but if we do not

know Jesus when we die, we are eternally lost. If we do know Jesus, even thoughwe may have lost these benefits, death will usher us into heaven. Knowing Jesus,not money, is the admission ticket.

The Bible asks the question, "What shall it profit a man, if he shall gain thewhole world, and lose his own soul?" (Mark 8:36).

The answer is "Nothing!""Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?" (Mark 8:37).The answer is "Nothing! Because anyone who would attempt to exchange his

soul for temporal benefits has 'irrevocably lost eternal life with God, with nothingto compensate for it,''' according to the Bible Knowledge Commentary.

Desiring money more than Jesus is as foolish as going to the hospital with painin your chest and a sliver in your toe, and asking the doctor to remove the sliverbefore he checks your heart.

I have a daughter who was a dental assistant at a hospital in Saudi Arabia.Admission to the hospital required a dental check-up first, even if the case were amatter oflife and death.

But even if a toe or a tooth is deemed more important than the physical heart,it would be far less dangerous than considering temporal satisfaction more impor-tant than eternal life.

"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whoso-ever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." (John 3:16).Jesus is the one we need the most! -Paull. Twist
