Are You Preparing More For Your Next Vacation… Than For Eternity?

Are we spending more time preparing for our next vacation... than preparing for eternity?

The Bible makes it very clear that life here on earth is incredibly short.

“Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away.”

— James 4:14 KJV

But eternity never ends.

The most important preparation any of us can ever make is to make sure we are ready to meet God.

The Good News is that eternal life is NOT something we can earn through good works.

It is God's gift to everyone who repents of their sins and puts their Belief and trust in Jesus Christ.

“⁸For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: ⁹Not of works, lest any man should boast.”

— Ephesians 2:8–9 KJV

Repenting of our sins and putting our belief and trust in Jesus Christ so that we will be saved is the most important decision we will ever make.

For those of us who have already done that; Jesus also tells us something fascinating:

“¹⁹Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: ²⁰But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal.”

— Matthew 6:19–20 KJV

Investing In Eternity

“But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven”

Think about that. Jesus tells us to invest in something that will last forever.
