God Offers the Best Investment ㅡ

 “But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust does corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal:”

 (Matthew 6:20)

 Self-sacrifice is the keynote of the teachings of Christ.

Often it is presented and enjoined in language that seems authoritative, because God sees that there is no other way to save man than to cut away from his life the selfishness which, if retained, would degrade the whole being.

We are to place in the Lord’s treasury all the means that we can spare.

For this means, needy, unworked fields are calling.

From many lands is sounding the cry, “Come over, ...and help us.” (Acts 16:9).

Our church members should feel a deep interest in home and foreign missions.

Great blessings will come to them as they make self-sacrificing efforts to plant the standard of truth in new territory.

The money invested in this work will bring rich returns.

New converts, rejoicing in the light received from the word, will in their turn give of their means to carry the light of truth to others.
