1st John 5:11 And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. 12 He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life.
As far as the fluctuation of value goes, we have before us the fact that Bitcoin reached very high in just a short period of time, but low and behold it has pulled back substantially, and continues to wobble up and down. In other words, what matters in value today can go up in smoke tomorrow, hence the reason why our opening passage gives us the bottom line when assessing what matters most.
“He that has The Son has life.” Life and all that could pertain to living, should be assessed in the context of having Jesus enshrined in our hearts, for it is He who gives to our lives both value and any meaning. In other words, to live without The Son of God is to live an empty and hopeless life, regardless of one’s achievements, for what shall it profit a person, if he or she would gain the whole world and their souls?
Thus, the truth about what matters most in life will come vividly to the forefront when, as the scripture states, the final day of reckoning comes to a head. As persons, and merchants alike, would assess what they have been scrambling and fighting for all their lives, they then see that it was all worthless, if they never included the God-factor in their assessments.
Revelation 18:11 And the merchants of the earth shall weep and mourn over her; for no man buys their merchandise any more. 14 And the fruits that thy soul lusted after are departed from thee, and all things which were dainty and goodly are departed from thee, and thou shalt find them no more at all.
May God add His blessing to the study of His word. “Good night” and God bless!
