Bible Question: Jesus said there is no one who has left house or brother or sister or mother or father or children or farms, for My sake and the Gospel's sake, who will not receive an hundred times as much now in this time--houses and brothers and sisters and mothers and children and lands, with persecution-- and in the age to come, eternal life. Question! Is Jesus saying that every Christian who truly loves Him, would own houses and lands (Materially wealthy)? |
Bible Answer: Hi humility, I think the reference is to what you receive for walking with Christ. That no matter what you have forsaken for His name sake it will not compare to the spiritual peace, comfort and grace that He offers or the eternal life promised. The love of God far exceeds those things and is infinitely more valuable than anything we can imagine. Stand in His grace, WOS |
