Are You Living in Light of Eternity?
It’s difficult to imagine eternal life. But when you’ve got only
one life and you know there is coming a day when you will stand
before God, it’s important to consider whether you’re living each
day like your life depends on it.
If you’re a Christian, the good news is God’s judgment isn’t about
determining your salvation—it’s about rewarding your faithfulness.
Salvation cannot be earned—it’s already yours.
In Heavenly Rewards you will uncover fascinating truths
about how the life you live today determines your life in eternity.
You will…
Yes, your faithfulness will be rewarded. God knows the
smallest details of your days, and He wants to acknowledge your
every act you’ve done for Him.
Living well with an eternal perspective really can change
your life—for good.
“While true as far as it goes, there is also a serious shortcoming in this kind of thinking. Receiving rewards will be a sign of God’s pleasure and approval of our lives here on earth. We should seek His approval above all else. Not to mention that rewards are God’s idea, not ours.” (source)
“In the same way, we serve God and sacrifice for Him because we love Him and others. We don’t serve for the reward; we serve for the Lord. ‘Therefore we also have as our ambition, whether at home or absent, to be pleasing to Him’ (2 Corinthians 5:9). Like a soldier receiving a medal, eternal rewards are simply God’s way of showing that He is pleased with our service.” (source)
“Also, we also need to remember that we don’t desire the reward for the reward itself, but because rewards are an expression that the way we lived is pleasing to the Lord. We ultimately desire rewards because they’re a reflection of Christ’s approval of us.” (source)
“God doesn’t judge the book of our life by its cover; He reads the pages and the footnotes.” (source)
“Some examples of these materials are truth, love, integrity, purity, and sacrificial service.” (source)
