It's All Gonna Burn

For no one can lay any foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ. If any man builds on this foundation using gold, silver, costly stones, wood, hay or straw, his work will be shown for what it is, because the Day will bring it to light. It will be revealed with fire, and the fire will test the quality of each man's work. If what he has built survives, he will receive his reward. (I Cor 3:11-14)

On the Day of the Lord fire will destroy the earth. All our earthly accomplishments will be destroyed in that day. Only our eternal accomplishments will survive. Ultimately, only what is eternal matters. Our reward is based on the eternal impact we have. Our goals for this life should be eternal. Everything that matters is built on the foundation of Jesus Christ, and that foundation will last forever.
