God or Money?

Don’t Loose Your Salvation Over Money

It is possible to “wander from the faith” or “fall from grace,” which is to loose your salvation. 👍🏼 The Bible says, “The love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.” 😞 People can start to love money more then God and then loose their salvation as a result. 🤔😔

Jesus said “Listen then to what the parable of the sower means: When anyone hears the message about the kingdom and does not understand it, the evil one comes and snatches away what was sown in their heart. This is the seed sown along the path. The seed falling on rocky ground refers to someone who hears the word and at once receives it with joy. But since they have no root, they last only a short time. When trouble or persecution comes because of the word, they quickly fall away. The seed falling among the thorns refers to someone who hears the word, but the worries of this life and the deceitfulness of MONEY choke the word, making it unfruitful. But the seed falling on good soil refers to someone who hears the word and understands it. This is the one who produces a crop, yielding a hundred, sixty or thirty times what was sown.”

This parallels with John 15:

“My Father is the gardener. He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit.... IF you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing. If you do not remain in me, you are like a branch that is thrown away and withers; such branches are picked up, thrown into the fire and burned.” Fire = hell

This is not meant to condemn us but rather to motivate us to not become lazy in our faith.

So don’t get lazy in your faith. Keep putting out fruit so that you will be counted worthy always to be called a Christian.

God bless!
