“Put your heart and soul into every activity you do, as though you are doing it for the Lord himself and not merely for others. For we know that we will receive a reward, an inheritance from the Lord, as we serve the Lord Yahweh, the Anointed One!”
Colossians 3:23-24 TPT
The Onympics are on again and atheletes have worked hard for medals. In time their medals will corrode. However, Paul urges us to compete for a heavenly prize that does not corrode.
Our heavenly prize is a new name, a crown, our names written in a heavenly book and an eternity with Jesus as opposed to one in flames. Many joke about hell, they have not read the bible’s depiction of what it is like. It is not a place where they can do as they please, they will be tormented in blazing fires that never go out and a worm that never dies. Sounds ghastly!
Making an account with Jesus who is the only way, is all that is required. Jesus is the only saviour, our own righteousness is as filthy rags (This refers to menstrual rags). We’re not in charge, we do not dictate the terms, we are not God, we die and cannot resurrect ourselves. Amen!
