Investing in Heaven
from Ambassador Presbyterian Hosted by ambassadorpres
Passage: Matthew 6:19-24 We all love and look for a good ROI or return on investment. Whether its time, talents or treasures, we like to know that what we do or have will have a positive and lasting impact. But any investor would shake his head warily at the promise of a "sure thing," an investment that can't lose. As Jesus continues to teach on kingdom living and to challenge his followers to live lives guided by a heart-righteousness devoted to pleasing God, he turns his attention to the subject of money, and how to approach the stewardship of those treasures God has entrusted to us on this earth. And while we often think of stewardship in terms of what we give or give up, Jesus actually encourages us to look at it in terms of investing for a return. And he says, if you want a "sure thing" we need to understand kingdom treasures, have a kingdom perspective, and serve the kingdom's King. Join us Sunday as we continue in our series in the Sermon on the Mount and see what Jesus says about investing in the kingdom of heaven.
