Jesus, in one of his teachings, made us to understand that wealth can be transferred from Earth to Heaven.
He also emphasized on the fact that the safest place to keep our investments is in Heaven. Why? It’s because the value of a treasure can never be devalued is Heaven.
Matthew 6:20 Store your treasures in Heaven where they will never lose their value, and are safe from thieves.
Here in this Bible verse, Jesus just showed us the possibility of transferring wealth from Earth to heaven. It makes more sense for a wise investor to have an investment plan that can be elongated into eternity. That means that when an investor dies here on earth he has his treasures presented intact to him in Heaven.
However, how can one achieve transferring his/her wealth on earth to Heaven where it will be safe from thieves, corruption and devaluation? Jesus clearly thought us how this can be done, hear what he says.
Matthew 19:21
Jesus told him,”if you want to be perfect, go and sell everything you have and give the money to the poor and you will have treasure in Heaven, and come and follow me.”
What Jesus was trying to communicate to us in this Bible verse is that, there are two main conditions to be met before your wealth transfer can be accomplished.
The first condition is that the person must lookout for those who don’t have at every level possible and care for their needs at the capacity he/she is capable to help.
Matthew 25:43-46
43 I was a stranger and you did not take Me in, naked and you did not clothe Me, sick and in prison and you did not visit Me.’
44 “Then they also will answer [a]Him, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see You hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and did not minister to You?’
45 Then He will answer them, saying, ‘Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did not do it to one of the least of these, you did not do it to Me.’
46 And these will go away into everlasting punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.”
The second condition to meet here is that the person must accept, believe and follow JESUS just like he told the man from the scripture to follow him.
Matthew 19:21
Jesus told him,”if you want to be perfect, go and sell everything you have and give the money to the poor and you will have treasure in Heaven, and come and follow me.”
The righteous are the people that obeyed by helping others with their wealth or resources and also followed Jesus while they existed on earth.
Matthew 25:46
46 And these will go away into everlasting punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.”
Taking care of the needs of those that are far below you and following Jesus are the important conditions to be met before your earthly wealth can be converted to Heavenly currency.
Meanwhile,, Jesus is waiting for you!!!
