Romans 8:18 For I
reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared
with the glory which shall be revealed in us. In our verse we have that
word reckon once again. Do you
remember what reckon was? It was an
accounting term. In our minds, let’s make two columns. We will label the first
the sufferings of this world and the second the glories of heaven. But of
course, there is no comparison! We might suffer for 70 or 80 years here on
earth, but how long will we enjoy heaven? Forever! We may not have much here on
earth, but how much will we have in heaven? All the riches of God! If we were
to look at these two imaginary accounting columns, the bad of this world would
not come close to comparing with the good of the world to come in heaven.
Absolutely no comparison!
