Deadly Seduction or Eternal Reward
Jun 25, 2023 • David Atkins
The disciples were astonished that wealth — nor any other human effort — would gain favor with God or equip someone to enter God's Kingdom. Jesus assures them that salvation is a gift from God, not something earned. He goes on to assure them that God rewards their allegiance to him. Whatever the world takes away because they follow Christ is repaid 100 fold. God's faithful servants never suffer loss — only eternal gain.
