“He who lives or dies in JESUS CHRIST wins” or “He who dies with the most toys wins”? (Revelation 11:18, 20:11-15).

In this world untold numbers of people spend a lifetime trying to achieve the goal as the 1980’s slogan says: “He who dies with the most toys wins”


DO NOT BE DECEIVED!  


To win in this life is to FOLLOW JESUS CHRIST TO OBTAIN ETERNAL LIFE! (John 3:16-18).


Our Lord Jesus Christ says:  “Take heed, and beware of covetousness: for [A MAN’S LIFE CONSISTETH NOT IN THE ABUNDANCE OF THE THINGS WHICH HE POSSESSETH]” (Luke 12:15).


Anyone who chooses to seek to amass wealth, riches, and possessions in this world is choosing to serve the prince of this world, the devil aka Satan which is of NO PROFIT because Jesus also pointed saying: “For what is a man profited, if [HE SHALL GAIN THE WHOLE WORLD, AND LOSE HIS OWN SOUL]? Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?” (Matthew 16:26).


“No servant 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” (Luke 16:13).


James, the brother of Jesus said: “Whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is an enemy of God” (James 4:4). “Hath not God chosen the [POOR OF THIS WORLD RICH IN FAITH], and heirs of the kingdom which he hath promised to them that love him?” (James 2:5).


“Riches and honor are with me; yea, durable riches and righteousness” (Proverbs 8:17-18).


“[THEY THAT FOLLOWETH AFTER RIGHTEOUSNESS AND MERCY FINDETH LIFE], righteousness, and honor” (Proverbs 21:21).
“Laying up in store for themselves a good foundation against the time to come, [THAT THEY MAY LAY HOLD ON ETERNAL LIFE]” (1 Timothy 6:19).


“For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the [DEAD IN CHRIST SHALL RISE FIRST], then [WE WHICH ARE ALIVE AND REMAIN SHALL BE CAUGHT UP TOGETHER WITH THEM IN THE CLOUDS], to meet the Lord in the air: and [SO SHALL WE EVER] be with the Lord. “Wherefore comfort one another with these words” (1 Thessalonians 4:16–18).


Jesus also says: “Fear not, little flock; for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom” (Luke 12:32).


“I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen” (Matthew 28:20).

“THEN COMETH THE END, when he shall have [DELIVERED UP THE KINGDOM TO GOD, EVEN THE FATHER]; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power” (1 Corinthians 15:24).

Whatever is now taking place and will continue to take shape in the coming years in the world, and on whatever road we find ourselves on this earth, let us always be reminded that GOD IS GOOD (Psalm 73:1). “Depart from evil, and [DO GOOD]; and dwell for evermore” (Psalms 37:27). “[AND WE KNOW THAT ALL THINGS WORK TOGETHER FOR GOOD TO THEM THAT LOVE GOD], to them who are the called according to his purpose” (Romans 8:28). “Glory ye in his holy name: let the [HEART] of them rejoice that seek the LORD. Seek the LORD, and his strength: [SEEK HIS FACE EVERMORE]” (Psalm 105:3-4). “Blessed be the LORD for [EVERMORE]. Amen, and Amen” (Psalm 89:52).

The POWER OF GOD and HIS ONLY BEFOTTEN SON (Genesis 1:1-31) (John 1:1-4, 14, 3:16-18): Human beings who die in JESUS CHRIST NEVER SEE DEATH: BELIEVE THIS! (John 8:51, 10:19, 27-30).

  GOD is a LIVING GOD: “[FOR HE IS NOT A GOD OF THE DEAD, BUT OF THE LIVING]: for all live unto him” (Luke 20:38). GOD GAVE HUMANS THE BREATH OF LIFE, BUT THEN CAME DEATH. At the apex of time, Adam and Eve did not BELIEVE the word of GOD: the TRUTH (Genesis 2:16-17, 3:2–3) and instead believed the LIES of the devil, aka Satan (Genesis 3:4), that “crooked serpent” (Job 26:10). As a consequence ALL human beings were CONDEMNED TO DEATH. However, God then sent his only begotten Son Jesus, at the right time, in the fullness of time, to bring and to spread the WORD OF LIFE: “[THAT WHOSOEVER BELIEVETH IN HIM SHOULD NOT PERISH, BUT HAVE ETERNAL LIFE]” (John 3:15). The Apostle Paul gives a clear understanding when he said: “Therefore as [BY THE OFFENCE OF ONE] judgment came upon all men to [CONDEMNATION]; even so [BY THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF ONE THE FREE GIFT] came upon all men unto justification of life” (Romans 5:18). “[FOR SINCE BY MAN CAME DEATH], by man came also the resurrection of th

If we know to say “Thank you” to another human being when an act of kindness is done for us, then we MUST GIVE THANKS TO GOD because he CREATED ALL THINGS (Genesis 1:1). “For all the earth is mine” (Exodus 19:5). Furthermore, we must especially GIVE GOD THANKS for the promise of ETERNAL LIFE through JESUS CHRIST. “[THAT WHOSOEVER BELIEVETH IN HIM SHOULD NOT PERISH, BUT HAVE ETERNAL LIFE]” (John 3:15). “For God so loved the world, that he gave his [ONLY BEGOTTEN SON], that whosoever [BELIEVETH IN HIM SHOULD NOT PERISH, BUT HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE]” (John 3:16). “And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now [COMMANDETH ALL MEN EVERY WHERE TO REPENT]: Because he hath [APPOINTED A DAY], in the which he will [JUDGE THE WORLD] in [RIGHTEOUSNESS] by that [MAN WHOM HE HATH ORDAINED]; whereof he hath [GIVEN ASSURANCE UNTO ALL MEN], in that he hath [RAISED HIM FROM THE DEAD]” (Acts 17:30-31). “[FOR AS THE FATHER RAISETH UP THE DEAD, AND QUICKENETH THEM; EVEN SO THE
