Things that will destroy us


Luke 9:25 - "And what do you benefit if you gain the whole world but are yourself lost or destroyed?"

When asked about the things that can destroy our lives, Ghandi made these suggestions:

"Politics without principle,
pleasure without conscience,
wealth without work,
knowledge without character,
business without morality,
science without humanity,
worship without sacrifice." 

If we compare his thoughts with those of Jesus, we will see a strong connection. All of the things that are mentioned by Ghandi are the idols that many people cling to (politics, pleasure, wealth etc.) - but what benefit are these to us, if we forfeit our souls in the quest for these things?

Living in Grace
