JESUS HEAVEN AND EARTH
Those Christian folks who defer their present earthly duties for their believed heavenly blessings had better re-read Matthew 18: 18 which Jesus says equalizes each place with reference to both human experiences; "whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven; whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven."
Handle your business, the business, God's business, here & now!
…17If he refuses to listen to them, tell it to the church. And if he refuses to listen even to the church, regard him as you would a pagan or a tax collector. 18Truly I tell you, whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on the earth will be loosed in heaven. 19Again, I tell you truly that if two of you on the earth agree about anything you ask for, it will be done for you by My Father in heaven.…MATTHEW 18.
