Matthew 6:19-21

 

“Treasures”– a word indicating all that men love and count as treasures, whether money or property of some sort, or anything else. The attitude which people should have toward such things appears also in other Scriptures as we can see in the passages of Luke 12:16-21; 1 Timothy 6:6-10, 17-19. “Moth”, “rust” and “thieves” speak of the perishing nature of worldly possessions. They may be here today and gone tomorrow. If they are not gone tomorrow we may be; and what are we laying up in heaven which will endure forever? Observe that the Lord Jesus Christ strictly forbids His disciples to lay up treasures here. Therefore to do so is disobedience to His instructions (and therefore sin) as well as foolishness…

Much LoVe, JoY, Peace and Blessings through Jesus Christ, our wonderful, almighty, dear caring Lord, Saviour and Redeemer, in who we faithfully abide, trust, believe and abundantly do receive throughout His marvelous righteous Word and truth fulfilling Holy Spirit.
