NASB | Matthew 6:21 for where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | Matthew 6:21 for where your treasure is, there your heart [your wishes, your desires; that on which your life centers] will be also. |
Bible Question: Then precisely what is it talking about? |
Bible Answer: Jesus is saying that we should get our priorities straight. If we try for wealth in this world it can be destroyed or stolen in one way or another. But, if we set our treasure in heaven then it is safe for all time. So, in terms of material wealth we could ask: are you interested in being a millionaire or are you interested in saving people's souls from eternal destruction? |
