We listed a five-year-old
chest freezer on a Buy-Sell-Trade site for $250, which I thought was a bargain. It didn’t
surprise me when people emailed to ask if we would take less, but I was
outright offended when one guy offered to take it off our hands for $100. We
did sell it at our price, but some people just don’t understand the value of an
item…even the Gospel. The writer of Hebrews said, “Therefore, since the promise
of entering his rest still stands, let us be careful that none of you be found
to have fallen short of it. For we also have had the gospel
preached to us, just as they did; but the message they heard was of no value to
them, because those who heard did not combine it with faith” (Heb
4:1-2 NIV).
