are you storing treasure in heaven? (page 2)

If I stop making money, will Jesus hug me?

In a world of poor people relgion is rich because they sell hope. In a world of rich people religion is poor because people don't need hope. Religion needs people to be poor and starving because then you will turn to them for hope making them rich off the idea of suffering without a conceivable end. Ow! My head hurts!

The Watchtower has no money, real estate, or treasures here on Earth? NOT. They are super rich. I couldn't agree with you more. Men build treasures here on Earth...and the Watchtower is a fine example of such love for worldly goods!

If you are storing "treasure" in heaven through a Christian, Jewish, or Muslim religion, I am afraid your "treasure" has become toilet paper. I might ask, how has it helped you to work the spiritual realm? Has it helped you to be aware of anything there, aside that some nazarene by the name of Jesus will supposedly take care of it for you? Or, that you have to do good works in the name of some almighty Allah or Jehovah to be saved? What does that have to do with learning about the spirit world?

People think they are spiritually wealthy if they participate in the above religions to a big extent. However, 5 minutes of quality time with a Ouija board is going to do more for you spiritually (once you can properly work it) than a lifetime as a monk (including 7 church attendances per day) or missionary. People that are good with that, and know that "demon attacks" are actually ANGEL attacks intended to scare them away from progressing spiritually, will find that doing these things enhances their spiritual lives.

OH GREAT! There's treasure in Heaven, unguarded by it's earthly owners----I'm sure there is a lot of looting going on! Does heaven got a good security force, or is everyone on their honor?

Refreshing STT. Thank you.

The following is a joke I used to introduce a sermon entitled: Money and the Kingdom.

Fred was a wealthy Christian who stored his wealth in the form of gold bars. After many years, his basement looked like a mini Fort Knox. But after receiving a negative prognosis from his doctor, he anxiously made an emergency appointment with his pastor. Fred wanted him to pray and ask God if he could take it with him. At first his pastor refused to pray. But then Fred offered to put him in his will. Fred got a call the next morning from the pastor who had a word from the Lord. The word was "Yes", but that he could only bring one bag into heaven with him.

Fred had a special titanium lined bag on steel wheels constructed and he promptly loaded as many bars as he could. Whereever Fred went, his titanium lined bag was sure to go. Sure enough, Fred woke up one night and found himself before the pearly gates, bag in toe... St Peter looks at him and says,"You can't bring that thing in here!" "Indeed I can", Fred responded, "I have special permission from the Lord Himself!" After Saint Peter checks with the authorities that be, he returns with a look of astonishment on his face." "I can't believe it; this is a first...can I see what's inside the bag?" Sure thing!" says Fred proudly. Saint Peter unzips the bag, bends over, looks inside and gasps.... "????PAVEMENT?????"
