Is Anything Worth More Than Your Soul?

Is Anything
Worth
More Than Your Soul?
Scripture
Mark 8
37 Is anything worth more than your soul?
Observation

When God created us He created us with a human body and with an eternal soul. He designed us to exist forever. His hope is that you and I will live with Him forever in Heaven. But God allows us to make the choice to love Him or to reject Him. We choose either eternal life (Heaven) or eternal damnation (Hell).
The real you and the real me – our souls - we are never going to cease to exist. Heaven or Hell? Jesus Christ (God Himself) died on a cross to give us a choice. Is anything worth more than your soul?
Matthew 10
28Don’t be afraid of those who want to kill your body; they cannot touch your soul. Fear only God, who can destroy both soul and body in hell.
35 If you try to hang on to your life, you will lose it. But if you give up your life for my sake and for the sake of the Good News, you will save it. 36 And what do you benefit if you gain the whole world but lose your own soul?  37 Is anything worth more than your soul? 
John 3:16
For this is how God loved the world: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life.
Application

Nothing is worth more than my soul! How about you?

Prayer

Heavenly Father, thank You for giving Your Son Jesus Christ to die on a cross in my place. I deserve to go to Hell when I die but You have given me what I do not deserve. You have given me Eternal life through Your Son Jesus Christ. Jesus paid the penalty for my sins with His blood. Help anyone that is reading this blog today to understand that they can also place their trust in Jesus Christ and they too can have their sins forgiven. Don't let them think that there is anything more valuable than their soul.
