BE not deceived; God is not mocked: for *whatsoever* a man *soweth, that shall he also reap*. _Galatians 6:7._ FOR he that soweth to his *flesh shall* of the flesh *reap corruption*; but he that soweth to the *Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting*. _Galatians 6:8._ *FOR the wages of sin is death*; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. _Romans 6:23._ Read: Revelation 21:8; I Corinthians 15:1-4. Excuses. *There is TOO MUCH to give up.* Is it because of your *business*, and *a desire to make money*, that you are unwilling to accept Christ? If so, listen to the *question* God puts to you! FOR what *shall it profit a man,* if *he shall gain the whole world*, and *lose his own soul*? _Mark 8:36._ God only asks you to give up that which *is not for your own good*? FOR the Lord God is a *sun* and *shield*: the *Lord* will *give grace* and *glory; no good thing will he withhold* from them that *walk uprightly.* _Psalms 84:11._ God gave up his son *to die for your sins*, and will *now supply all your needs*. HE that spared not His *own Son*, but *delivered him up* for *us all*, how shall he not with him also *freely give us all things*? _Romans 8:32._ Take Christ, attend to the most important things first and the less important will be provided later. BUT *seek* ye first the *kingdom of God*, and *His righteousness*; and *all these things shall* be *added unto you*. _Matthew 6:33._ By giving up *worldly things, you will receive manifold more* in return in spiritual blessing. AND he said unto them, Verily I say unto you, There is no man that hath *left house, or parents, or brethren, or wife, or children*, for the kingdom of God’s sake, Who shall not receive *manifold more in this present time*, and in the *world to come* life everlasting. _Luke 18:29-30._ FOR he that *soweth to his flesh* shall of the flesh *reap corruption*; but he that *soweth to the Spirit* shall of the *Spirit reap life everlasting*. _Galatians 6:8._ Jesus said, “Ye can not serve *two* masters," (Matthew 6:24) but you will serve *one*,—Christ or the Devil, which shall it be? The Devil pays, “*the wages of death*,” (Romans 6:23) but Christ *gives eternal life*. Illustration: Matthew 19:16-22. Excuses. *I CAN NOT surrender all.* Some think it means too much sacrifice.
