Worthy News Brief - January 16, 2019
Friend, invest in eternity! 1 Timothy 6:7 For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out. The great pyramids of Egypt have become objects of fascination for many involved in the New Age teaching. Some think they were built by aliens from outer space. Others say they are containers of cosmic power. All of them are trying to find the great "secret" of the pyramids. What they are, really, are structures of death, exaggerated tombstones, coffins. The pyramids were made for death. They were built to house a dead body, along with the useless riches of a rotting corpse. The pyramid holds an important lesson for our lives, however. All the works of our flesh and self-glorification end in waste, destruction, futility, and death. Our accomplishments in the flesh might be grand, exalted, and elaborate -- but they're really just a monument to ourselves that have no life within them. If we want death, let's look to the flesh and all the glories of man -- look to the pyramids.  But if we want life, we'll only find it by abandoning the flesh, walking in the spirit and putting our faith in Yeshua (Jesus), the one who gives us abundant life! Friend, investments in eternity neither rust nor rot, so let's become wise investors -- investing in the Kingdom!  Your family in the Lord with much agape love, George, Baht Rivka, Elianna & Obadiah Oklahoma City, OK Editor's Note: Some events have CHANGED this week and weekend.
