Time Value of Money


Matthew 6:19-20
"Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moths and vermin destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moths and vermin do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal."

The theory of the time value of money teaches that money is more valuable now than it will be later. Jesus turns that on its head and teaches that the things of the future, of eternity, are so much more valuable than anything we could ever own on earth.

On top of that, Jesus also promises a return that, although delayed for a while, is 100% guaranteed [there are no heavenly recessions] and way, way exceeds any investment that you could ever put in. It's a genuine win-win situation!

As any financial adviser will tell you: the best time to start investing was 20 years ago; the second best time is right now. Invest your life into Jesus, into the Kingdom of Heaven and do it today.
