Reconciling Secular Perceptions With Prophecy

Q. Imagine you are a business, an international company. Imagine you employ hundreds of people and millions of people rely on your product or service. Now, imagine you are a Christian and you know what is coming down the pike because of your knowledge of prophecy.

Imagine your company needs to be competitive to stay in business, and that you need to develop long term strategies in order to insure future longevity. As a Christian, what do you do? How do you reconcile one vision, business, with the other, prophetic?

A. You can’t serve two masters, and where your treasure is there will your heart be also (Matt. 6:21,24).  I would apply 2 Cor. 4:18.

“So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.”

Someone who isn’t trying to serve the Lord can hire the people and provide the service.  No one is indispensable.  Sell the company and use the proceeds to store up treasure in heaven while there’s time.
