Mark 8:36 For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? Matt 16:26 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? — Just Imagine life as a rope, with the first foot this life & the remaining infinite feet as eternal life. So many focus only on the first foot & ignore the remaining infinite feet. If the things of this world are bricks with hooks, how many hooks would be holding you in this world? Are you weighted down with the desires of the flesh or are you willing to let go of those weights in hope of eternal life?— John 5:24 Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever hears my word & believes Him who sent me has eternal life. He does not come into judgment, but has passed from death to life. — Now listen, there is not one thing in this world worth trading for the soul! But life in Heaven will be beyond everything you could ever Hope for on this earth! Remember, gold is pavement in Heaven! Love Mel
