What Money Can't Buy

Money is a necessary part of living. Without it, we couldn't secure the necessities or luxuries of life. But there are many things money can't buy. As preacher W.A.Criswell said, "Money will buy luxuries, but it will not buy spiritual power. Money will buy advancement and preferment, but it will not buy the recognition of God. Money will buy..favor and accolades, but it will not buy soul respect.

We'll never accumulate enough riches to purchase a place in the paradise of God. But there's good news! Salvation can be ours "without money and without price," according to the Book of Isaiah 55:1.

Have you trusted Jesus as your Savior? You need only to stretch out your empty hands in childlike faith to the Lord (John 1:12). Cry out to Him and confess your sin. "He will abundantly pardon." (Isaiah 55:7) DB-VG

"Seek the Lord while He may be found, call upon Him while He is near." Isaiah 55:6
