I saw this article on 5 Doves. Such an extragent, over the top display of wealth. Princes and princesses attended the event. No masks, of course, btw.

Not an ounce of jealousy from me, though. I am blessed beyond measure to be a child of God. :yahoo:

John 1:12

New King James Version

12 But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name:

I am a joint heir with Christ Jesus. Wow! :yahoo:

Romans 8:17

New King James Version

17 and if children, then heirs—heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with Him, that we may also be glorified together.

Hebrews 1

New King James Version

God’s Supreme Revelation
1 God, who at various times and in various ways spoke in time past to the fathers by the prophets, 2 has in these last days spoken to us by His Son, whom He has appointed heir of all things, through whom also He made the worlds;

So...if we are joint heirs with Christ Jesus and He is to inherit all things then that means... Wow! :yahoo:

They can keep their taudry little wedding and all their earthly wealth. Talk about selling an inheritance for a bowl of lentil stew. :negative:

I’d rather be a destitute and have Christ than to be the wealthiest man on earth without Him.

As they say, you can't take with you!

But what you can take with you, is other souls!

Psalm 84:10

New King James Version

10 For a day in Your courts is better than a thousand.

I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God

Than dwell in the tents of wickedness.

I like the idea of being a real king and a real priest. God given and not man given.

Revelation 5:8-10

King James Version

8 And when he had taken the book, the four beasts and four and twenty elders fell down before the Lamb, having every one of them harps, and golden vials full of odours, which are the prayers of saints.

9 And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation;

10 And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth.

You are a king and a priest. You are chosen and are special in God's eyes.

1 Peter 2:9

New King James Version

9 But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light;

I can't imagine what God's crown or diadem looks like but if we are to be like them, that means he considers us as priceless treasures that bring exceeding glory to Him.

Isaiah 62:3

New King James Version

3 You shall also be a crown of glory
In the hand of the Lord,
And a royal diadem
In the hand of your God.

Know that you are loved and highly treasured by Almighty God. :rose:
