God’s Love for America

 Friends, here's tomorrow's sermon, "God's Love for America". Blessings! Matthew 6:19-24  Concerning Treasures  19 “Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust[a] consume and where thieves break in and steal, 20 but store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust[b] consumes and where thieves do not break in and steal. 21 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.  The Eye  22 “The eye is the lamp of the body. So if your eye is healthy, your whole body will be full of light, 23 but if your eye is unhealthy, your whole body will be full of darkness. If, then, the light in you is darkness, how great is the darkness!  Serving Two Masters  24 “No one can serve two masters, for a slave will either hate the one and love the other or be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and wealth.[c]      Sermon God’s Love for America  Friends, we’re now at week 6/7 of Stump the Preacher 202
