Cedar Springs Church of Christ

 There is a quote from a non-Christian, who penned these words, “Beware of overconcern for money, or position, or glory. Someday you will meet a man who cares for none of these things. Then you will know how poor you are.”
   Although, Rudyard Kipling was not baptized into the truth of the Lord’s church, i.e., not baptized into the universal Church of Christ, but with knowledge, common sense and truth, he quoted Jesus Christ on the very same subject which will cause the majority of human beings to be lost now, and at the eternal judgment seat of Christ.                 (RE: Matt 6: 24)
     Also, another non-Christian, J. R. R. Tolkien said, “Short cuts make long delays.” Think about it! Who is the real you…is it pursuing God or mammon i.e., is it God or pursuing wealth?
