Do you want to experience the future, now? Read on!

Christian: you have received, in Jesus, an inheritance that can never perish, spoil or fade. What a contrast to this passing age. The customs and priorities of your culture are an empty way of life, but you have been redeemed from that by the precious blood of Christ. Even gold is perishable compared to the everlasting certainty of your glorious inheritance.
