Our works follow us if they remain in the eternal…Heavenly rewards for earthly deeds…listen…

Here are some words written from the New Testament of Christ which is the New Agreement (Covenant, Testament) between God and Creation through the hands of our Mediator (Heb 12:24) and Lord Jesus Christ of Nazareth (Acts 22:7-8) …


Revelation 14:12-13 Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.  13 And I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Write, Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth: Yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labors; and their works do follow them.

 

If we do something that will remain in heaven…a holy work of God that remains or yields fruit eternal…then we will receive a reward…listen to what the Christians at Corinth were told…


1 Corinthians 3:11-14 For no one can lay a foundation other than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ.  12 Now if anyone builds on the foundation with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, straw— 13 each one's work will become manifest, for the Day will disclose it, because it will be revealed by fire, and the fire will test what sort of work each one has done.  14 If the work that anyone has built on the foundation survives, he will receive a reward.

 

May we all strive to enter in at the narrow gate…but may we remain faithful and have holy works of faith that produce fruit in the eternal rewards…listen to what Jesus said…

 

Mark 3:33-35 And he answered them, “Who are my mother and my brothers?”  34 And looking about at those who sat around him, he said, “Here are my mother and my brothers!  35 For whoever does the will of God, he is my brother and sister and mother.”

 

Jesus in the parable of the talents which really should be called the parable of money…illustrates his parable with the judgement scene…those that received a reward for being faithful…received a rewards for feeding the hungry…clothing the naked…taking in the stranger…giving water to a thirsty man…visiting the sick…and visiting those in prison… Jesus said if you have done it to the least of these my brethren then you have done it unto Me…My best advice…Try and treat everyone like Jesus…then pretend what does baby Jesus need…listen there is a promise if you treat people like Jesus then you receive the same treatment…


Ephesians 6:5-8  Bondservants, obey your earthly masters with fear and trembling, with a sincere heart, as you would Christ,  6  not by the way of eye-service, as people-pleasers, but as bondservants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart,  7  rendering service with a good will as to the Lord and not to man,  8  knowing that whatever good anyone does, this he will receive back from the Lord, whether he is a bondservant or is free.

 

Father help us love others as Jesus and please above all may we remain faithful today…In Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.
