"Do not love the world or anything in the world. The world and its desires pass away, but the man who does the will of God lives forever." I Jh. 2:15,17
Few are the things said that have ever been more clearly understandable than these words spoken by the Apostle John.
Why would any logical person place his trust and confidence in something guaranteed not to last?
But it occurs every time anyone rejects Jesus Christ and chooses anything offered by this world as security for his future.
As clearly as He could state it the Holy Spirit spoke through John, the "disciple of love" who said that this world and all its desires will one day be no more, but that those who seek to live according to the will of God will live forever.
Yes, you can take the Bible literally.
Not to do so is foolishness.
Do a personal inventory.
What of that in which you are invested will remain when death occurs or Jesus returns?
