Most of us focus on the wrong things that we think we need for security – like acquiring lots of food and clothing and money. We work so hard to have money, and then we hoard it for fear that if we don't, we will be destitute someday. But Jesus tells us to not worry about these things, but to seek first the Kingdom of God.
Christ commanded his followers to give up their personal earthly wealth and share with their brothers and sisters in Christ (see 1 John 3:17). By living according to these Kingdom principles, no one needs to lack anything. We will be provided for in this life, and beyond that, we will gain life eternal.
In this study we look at the security to be gained from living by Kingdom principles.
