"TWO ETERNAL THINGS"
There are only two things that are eternal; "The Word of God & People. "
All other things are temporary, but God's word and the soul of every person will live eternally.
First, God's Word;
"The grass withers and the flowers fall, but the word of our God endures forever" ( Isa. 40: 8 NIV)- Isaiah the prophet wrote.
"Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away. "
( Matt. 24:35 NIV.)
-Mathew penned down the words of Jesus.
When we are in heavens of heaven with our Lord and Saviour, we will see the evidences of the word of God, we will hear the word of God again proclaim by the one of whom it speaks. -( Jesus)
Please do not think that in heaven there would be a big Bible Class, where we will sit around learning things, No, everything we need to know would be made open and clear to us, the truth of his word will unfold and we will hear, see and witness God's promises in His word fulfilled because his word is eternal.
The second one is People.
From 2 Peter 3: 10, the scripture made it clear that everything will be destroyed by fire.
Of course, the word of God and the soul of every person will live eternally. Everyone has eternal life, some will spend it with the living Lord because of their relationship with Jesus Christ , others, apart from God, in a place of eternal punishment, away from all the Bliss and blessings we will know in heaven.
Every person you talk to has eternal soul. All children, teenagers, and adults alike, your love ones and those you consider enemies.
Since everything in this world are temporary except God's word and the souls of people then, would you humbly reflect on these things;
1. Would you Invest your time in the study of God's word? It has eternal truth.
2.Would you Invest your money in the preaching and teaching of God's word? - it is an eternal investment.
3. Would you treat every person with dignity - he/ she will never cease to exist.
4 Would you invest in people and concentrate on their salvation? - they would be saved eternally.
5. As you end this Reading, where will you spend eternity? - Heaven and Hell are real.
( would you accept Jesus Christ today as your Lord and saviour if you haven't done that yet? - now is the opportune time)
Make eternal investment today, God bless you.
God bless you.
