We have looked at the some verses in the Bible yesterday ..
There are two different kingdoms in this world:they have different laws,rules principles,values and aims..Matthew 6:19-34
In one of them all stregth,effort and desire are concentrated to pursue and achieve the most valuable things for this kingdom:treasures on earth...
In other kingdom the most valuable things are different:2 Peter 1:5-9;Galatians 5:22..and the most valuable :the God himself
As a part of God's Kingdom we can only use the treasures of the earth ,not to pursue them..We have to have other aims and other values.
I saw the very bright and clear picture of these 2 Kingdoms and saw the peculiarity of the God's Kingdom:dependence of God for all things:He is the source of colours and fragnance of flowers and not only of them..Our flavour derives from Him ...He is our core of heart and He is visible through all our aims,values and desires.
God Bless you

Yes, there re two diff. kingdoms in the world. God put things here for us to use. He gave gifts to men (Unsaved) that we may dwell among them . But, we are not to put them before God.

Interesting thought: The rulers of both kingdoms want us dead. One wants us to die to self the other to God.

Some of the greatest men and women of God "died" long before they were ever martyred.

Thank you for intersting offers and directions of thoughts.In our life then each person will die.
One will die to sins and will live with God for ever ...other will die to God but contuniing their eternal existence in hell..
Our choice..
