Half-Truths About Heaven Steal Purpose
- Cultural half-truths about heaven rob entrepreneurs of present purpose and future hope.
- Scripture shows earth becomes our perfect, permanent home, so material work matters eternally.
Material Work Has Eternal Value
- If earth will be renewed rather than discarded, then material creation has eternal value.
- Therefore 100% of entrepreneurial work, both spiritual and material, matters to God.
Beware Bumper-Sticker Theology
- Bumper-sticker theology like 'matter doesn't matter' simplifies complex biblical teaching.
- Scripture actually affirms some works of entrepreneurs endure and the New Jerusalem (earth) is eternal.
