What Does This World Have to Offer?

Ever think about that? What does this world have to offer? From a Christian perspective nothing really. Yes, the globe we live on is created by God, and in some places very beautiful, but that will not and must not satisfy us. God in His mercy has given places, landscapes, animals, etc. for us to marvel at while we occupy till He comes, and for evidence that our Heavenly Father is true. Even the heavens declare the glory of God.

However, that aside what does this world have to offer? Shall we be occupied with gadgets, foods, styles, arts, movies, cars, making lots of money, higher education, etc.? NO. We dare not and we must not. Our only purpose here is to glorify God on earth and be a witness for His gospel. While we occupy here we have the opportunity to build relationships with people (for that is what God is after) so He might receive their souls.

“No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier.” (2 Timothy 2:4)

Remember: Our only purpose here is to glorify God on earth and be a witness for His gospel.
