The Lottery Has High Odds but Being Picked by God Has Higher | 2 Corinth 5 | Athens Bible Church

1 year ago

When we think of improbabilities, many consider winning the lottery as one; but, being picked by God (as one of His elect) is almost an impossibility - in fact, for man it is.

Give glory to the Heavenly Father if you got a winner - a ticket to heaven. Be Bold and Preach The Good News.

2 Corinthians 5:1-10 King James Version

1 For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens.
2 For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with our house which is from heaven:
3 If so be that being clothed we shall not be found naked.
4 For we that are in this tabernacle do groan, being burdened: not for that we would be unclothed, but clothed upon, that mortality might be swallowed up of life.
5 Now he that hath wrought us for the selfsame thing is God, who also hath given unto us the earnest of the Spirit.
6 Therefore we are always confident, knowing that, whilst we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord:
7 (For we walk by faith, not by sight:)
8 We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord.
9 Wherefore we labour, that, whether present or absent, we may be accepted of him.
10 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.
