“Now EXCHANGE”

•Matthew 16:26 For what is a man profited, if he

shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a

man give in exchange for his soul?

1 Corinthians 3:10-15 According to the grace of God which is given unto me, as a

wise masterbuilder, I have laid the foundation, and another buildeth thereon. But let every man take heed how he buildeth thereupon. For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ. Now if any man build upon

this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble; Every man's work shall be made manifest: for the day

shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try

every man's work of what sort it is. If any man's work abide which he hath built

thereupon, he shall receive a reward. If any man's work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so

as by fire.
