“In 1990 when Benjamin Franklin’s trust fund was set to be liquidated, Boston had $5 million dollars waiting. Philadelphia had less than half that much. $2.3 million.
Why? They started with the same amount. They had been given the same promise. It was a matter of management. Misallocation of what they had been given. Christians, we have been given everything we need for life and Godliness. Which means we have the power and equipment necessary to hasten the return of Jesus to redeem the universe. These truths make it clear what sort of lives we should lead. Are we living out our faith? It’s clear what the Lord is going to do in the future. It’s clear what He wants done in the present. Let’s be people of repentance and participants in Christ’s work of redemption, doing His business till He comes.“
