Matthew 6:19 ESV "Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal,

Matthew 6:20 ESV but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal.

Matthew 24:43 ESV But know this, that if the master of the house had known in what part of the night the thief was coming, he would have stayed awake and would not have let his house be broken into.

1 Thessalonians 5:2 ESV (2) For you yourselves are fully aware that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night.

Acts 4:32 ESV Now the full number of those who believed were of one heart and soul, and no one said that any of the things that belonged to him was his own, but they had everything in common.

Acts 4:34 ESV There was not a needy person among them, for as many as were owners of lands or houses sold them and brought the proceeds of what was sold

Acts 4:35 ESV and laid it at the apostles' feet, and it was distributed to each as any had need.

Acts 5:1 ESV But a man named Ananias, with his wife Sapphira, sold a piece of property,

Acts 5:2 ESV and with his wife's knowledge he kept back for himself some of the proceeds and brought only a part of it and laid it at the apostles' feet.

Acts 5:3 ESV But Peter said, "Ananias, why has Satan filled your heart to lie to the Holy Spirit and to keep back for yourself part of the proceeds of the land?

Acts 5:4 ESV While it remained unsold, did it not remain your own? And after it was sold, was it not at your disposal? Why is it that you have contrived this deed in your heart? You have not lied to men but to God."

Matthew 19:21 ESV Jesus said to him, "If you would be perfect, go, sell what you possess and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me."


If I stand all alone
will the shadows hide the colors of my heart
blue for the tears
black for the night's fears

The stars in the sky
don't mean nothing to you
they're a mirror


-Rod Stewart (I don't want to talk about it)

Revelation 14:6 ESV Then I saw another angel flying directly overhead, with an eternal gospel to proclaim to those who dwell on earth, to every nation and tribe and language and people.

Revelation 14:7 ESV And he said with a loud voice, "Fear God and give him glory, because the hour of his judgment has come, and worship him who made heaven and earth, the sea and the springs of water."

Revelation 14:13 ESV And I heard a voice from heaven saying, "Write this: Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from now on." "Blessed indeed," says the Spirit, "that they may rest from their labors, for their deeds follow them!"

Revelation 14:14 ESV Then I looked, and behold, a white cloud, and seated on the cloud one like a son of man, with a golden crown on his head, and a sharp sickle in his hand.

Revelation 14:15 ESV And another angel came out of the temple, calling with a loud voice to him who sat on the cloud, "Put in your sickle, and reap, for the hour to reap has come, for the harvest of the earth is fully ripe."

Revelation 14:16 ESV So he who sat on the cloud swung his sickle across the earth, and the earth was reaped.

Revelation 14:17 ESV Then another angel came out of the temple in heaven, and he too had a sharp sickle.

Revelation 14:18 ESV And another angel came out from the altar, the angel who has authority over the fire, and he called with a loud voice to the one who had the sharp sickle, "Put in your sickle and gather the clusters from the vine of the earth, for its grapes are ripe."

Revelation 14:19 ESV So the angel swung his sickle across the earth and gathered the grape harvest of the earth and threw it into the great winepress of the wrath of God.

Matthew 19:26 ESV But Jesus looked at them and said, "With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible."

Matthew 19:27 ESV Then Peter said in reply, "See, we have left everything and followed you. What then will we have?"

Matthew 19:28 ESV Jesus said to them, "Truly, I say to you, in the new world, when the Son of Man will sit on his glorious throne, you who have followed me will also sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

Matthew 19:29 ESV And everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or children or lands, for my name's sake, will receive a hundredfold and will inherit eternal life.

Matthew 19:30 ESV But many who are first will be last, and the last first.
