Christianity and Real Estate.... The Kingdom of Heaven #5

By
Services for Real Estate Pros with Knights Investing

 

Here is another installment of what the Kingdom of Heaven The Lord wants the BEST for us.......
is like as quoted by Jesus the Messiah...

  • The kingdom of heaven is like a treasure hidden in the field,
    which a man found and hid again; and from joy over it he goes
    and sells all that he has and buys that field. Matthew 13:44 

 

How many have SOLD all that they have to obtain the Kingdom of Heaven?

  • Have you given up your family?
  • Have you given up your friendships?
  • Have you quit your job or place of employment?
  • Have you given a LOT of your money to the poor
    who cannot pay you back with a job or business
    to support you?

 

 

Now, please don't get me wrong here..... I am NOT saying you
HAVE to do all those things.
I am sure if you thought that, I
would be getting a WHOLE bunch of angry e-mails. What I AM
saying is that if anything is coming between YOU AND A BIBLICAL 
RELATIONSHIP to God and the Jesus the Messiah, GET RID OF IT.

Here are some of the things that can hinder your relationship to
God through Jesus the Messiah:

  • Love of money (I am not talking about needing basic
    things, like food, shelter ect...... this is LOVING money
    and having a burning desire to have more than you need
    without doing anything GOOD with it from GOOD desires)
  • Sinful friendships (relationships with people who sin along
    with you, or encourage you to keep sinning)
  • Sinful family relationships (Same as above...believe it or
    not)
  • Love of material things
  • Unclean sexual desires.....(lusting for and thinking about
    things that are not right)



Now, take a GOOD LOOK at the second part of Jesus' description
in this parable ---- this person, because of HIS JOY about finding
the Kingdom of Heaven
, goes and SELLS EVERYTHING he has......

 

Have YOU lost YOUR joy
about the Kingdom of Heaven?

MAYBE YOU need to SELL or get rid of
some "THINGS" and
REGAIN your JOY!

Hi Alex -- oh boy you have hammered it (or as the T.C. boys say, you wrote a sick post-- meaning very good).

If we think of keeping our biblical relationship with God uncluttered and unblocked by things of this world, we are bathing in the holiness of the Lord.

Your list was particularly timely given all the recent press articles and public scandals.  No question, love of money and relationships that encourage you to sin, or to accept sinful behavior to maintain the relationship are death traps.  Same is true with off-base sexual desires, and the love of material things.

Powerful convicting post -- hope everyone reads it thinking of their relationship with the Father!

On a slightly lighter side, Alex, I do love my Coach purses (but I wouldn't knock someone down to get to the last one on sale).  God bless you!

Hi Alex, I thank you for being a true servant for the Lord.  I am trying to live the life that Jesus Christ would want me to live.  I want EVERYTHING in my life to be all about Him.  I can say this, I have given up a lot of things for the Lord.  And why wouldn't I?  He gave His life so that I can have eternal life.  I am truly thankful for a brother like you who is not afraid to tell us what thus said the Lord.  Thanks for the wonderful post and the reminder.  God bless you my brother.

Amen, Brother.  Jesus said, "If any man come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple." Luke 14:26.  Unless our love for those dear to us looks like hate when compared to our love for Christ we are not His disciple.

Don Draughn - Mortgage Professional~~~ You are right there, brother... living for the Lord means you must as a consequence, DISLIKE what your family, or friends tell you what to do if what they say goes against scripture.........and if it comes to it... DISLIKE being associated with them because of what they try to entice you to do..... HARD to do, BUT needed....

Sonya Rosser ~~~ Thanks for the complement, sister...... I HATED being away when my computer died.... BUT I am BACK!!!

To God be the GLORY through and in His son and our Messiah --- Jesus!!
