Treasures in Heaven

(Luke 12.33,34)

^19 (A) Don't store up treasures on earth! Moths and rust can destroy them, and thieves can break in and steal them. ^20 (B) Instead, store up your treasures in heaven, where moths and rust cannot destroy them, and thieves cannot break in and steal them. ²¹ Your heart will always be where your treasure is.

Light

(Luke 11.34-36)

²² Your eyes are a window for your body. When they are good, you have all the light you need. ²³ But when your eyes are bad, everything is dark. If the light inside you is dark, you surely are in the dark.

Money

(Luke 16.13)

²⁴ You cannot be the slave of two masters! You will like one more than the other or be more loyal to one than the other. You cannot serve both God and money.
