“Don’t store up treasures here on earth, where moths eat them and rust destroys them, and where thieves break in and steal.

Store your treasures in heaven, where moths and rust cannot destroy, and thieves do not break in and steal.

Wherever your treasure is, there the desires of your heart will also be.

But tell me this—since we preach that Christ rose from the dead, why are some of you saying there will be no resurrection of the dead?

The message of the cross is foolish to those who are headed for destruction! But we who are being saved know it is the very power of God.
