by M. Fortner Jesus said if the blind lead the blind, both will fall into the ditch. I saw a nationally known get-rich preacher on TV this morning (11-26-2000) and was amazed at her blindness to the truth. She read her text: "Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also." (Matthew 6:19-21) This lady is so blind that what she sees in this passage is that we should not strive to store up treasure for OURSELVES, but if we seek first the kingdom (Luke 6:22-31), then God will give us all "these things." This means that God will give us treasure that rusts and that moths eat and that theives break in and steal!! It is not us storing it up, but God storing it up for us; then it's OK.
