Every individual is given the ability to make choices. Our choice determines our eternal destiny. It is important that we evaluate every decision we make based on our commitment to follow Christ: the career we choose, the person we marry, the places we visit, how we raise our children, the churches we join, ministry engagement, financial investment, etc. None of these will get us into heaven, but any one of these could keep us out of heaven. Do not make choices as if this world and your earthly position and possessions are what matters. None of these are worth as much as your soul (v.26).
