1. Matthew 6:20 (ESV)
  2. Exposition

What does it mean for heavenly treasures to be safe from moth, rust, and thieves?

Matthew 6:20 (ESV)

20 but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal.

The kingdom of God and life in his presence is of ultimate significance. It cannot and will not be ruined by sin or decay. It is the only place of genuine security and permanence.1
