    A Day’s Wages Series

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 25, 2022

     | 7,730 views

    Gathering lost souls for the kingdom is considered labor. When Jesus returns, the payment that laborers (believers) receive is eternal life, and that exact same wage goes to all who have been hired, or rather called, by the Lord.

There is a story among Aesop’s Fables that addresses the reward for one’s ...read more
