7 Benefits of Living the Saved Life

1. You’ll never be asked to write one of those testimonials on “How The Lord Miraculously Helped Us When It Seemed There Was No Way Out.”

2. You’ll likely always have lots of reserves and will never have to pray, “Give us this day our daily bread.”

3. Your life will be relatively calm, measured, and predictable, without those shocking moments when you experience the remarkable intervention of heaven. You will have effectively insulated yourself from that.

4. You will have your evenings and weekends free for yourself, never bothered by people seeking spiritual help, as they do from those daily cast on God.

5. You will be able to stock away substantial investments, often to be left to unsaved relatives. Large sums of money give you something to regularly think over, plan for, and worry about. This is the alternate policy of living “for a rainy day” rather than living for “that Day” (see 2 Tim. 1:12; 4:8).

6. You will be able to exert control on many decisions of your life, unlike servants who are often imposed upon, interrupted at unearthly hours, and expected to give selflessly of themselves.

7. You will be remembered as a Christian with a good job, a well-kept garden, a nice car, a fine wardrobe, and huge untapped potential.
