What do you gain?

“What good will it be for a man if he gains the whole world, yet forfeits his soul? Or what can a man give in exchange for his soul?  
For the Son of Man is going to come in his Father’s glory with his angels, and then he will reward each person according to what he has done.” 
                                                       Matthew 16:26,27

Do you believe you have a soul?
I do.
Man has to be more than a complicated biochemical cocktail. Man has a soul. Man was created to live forever. And one day we will stand before God.
Think about what you are doing. Is it really worth while?
Man is an odd creature if you think about it.
He spends a lifetime collecting ‘things’ be they widgets or dollar bills only to leave it behind him when he dies. So why do we do it?
There has to be more to life than spending a few short years on this earth only to pass into eternity and enter oblivion.
I believe man was made to live on in eternity and have fellowship with the very God that made him.
I believe the words of Jesus who said,
“For the Son of Man is going to come in his Father’s glory with his angels, and then he will reward each person according to what he has done.”
Where do you stand?
Think about it.
