#[Matthew 6:19-24]; [Romans 1:25]
Henry Schorr argues that true followers of Christ invest in Heavenly Treasures rather than Earthly ones, maintain an eternal, godly perspective, and serve God alone. He warns against allowing earthly possessions to define identity, highlighting the danger of worshipping created things over the Creator. Henry emphasizes that earthly treasures are temporary and subject to destruction, while heavenly treasures are eternal and secure. He urges listeners to examine their lives using a "treasure test," focusing on sources of joy, anxieties, and areas of resistance to God's word, so as to identify and confront idols. He uses stories to show that a life lived for Christ, and for eternal reward, is one of true value. He calls on his listeners to examine where their "treasure" truly lies.
