The Ultimate Retirement Plan

The Ultimate Retirement Plan

“A 401K That Will Not Decay”

I. Introduction

A. Planning for the future is a must in today’s society.

1. We are living longer lives due to medicine and research.

2. Social Security & Medicare are not enough by themselves: we need supplements.

3. We know that we cannot work forever; our bodies won’t let us.

a. Solomon describes the natural deterioration our bodies go through in Eccl. 12.

b. God ran man out of the Garden so that he could not eat of the Tree of Life and henceforth live-forever.

Gen. 3: 22.

c. Though death is inevitable, it is not always predictable. We want to make sure things are left in good

shape or our loved ones.

B. For those who work for others, the pension plans offered are a big factor in candidates’ decisions to

accept or reject offers from prospective employers.

1. Some employers match employee contributions/some don’t. At best, only 15% of one’s salary can be

matched.

2. God has already overmatched our contributions with the Blood of Jesus Christ.

3. We actually have no control in the overall performance of any fund because of all the human and

circumstantial factors involved.

a. “Chicken today/Feathers tomorrow.”

b. Many of us here have experienced this through the years.

c. The saying goes, "The only sure things are death & taxes."

C. We can invest in a plan that cannot lose, one in which the originator guarantees exorbitant returns on the most

meager investments. This plan allows for benefits to be reaped even while we are working.

Let’s look at the three most important parts of any Investment Plan.

1. Company Background - pertinent to know something about the people who manage the fund

2. Strategy/Returns - pertinent to know what their goals are and how they intend to attain them.

3. How Can I Invest? What is the minimum "buy in"?

II. Body: The Plan of Salvation “The 401K that won’t decay.”

A. Company Background and Officers

1. Records show that the core plan was formed before there was even a need for a retirement plan of any kind.

a. I Pet. 1: 17-20

b. Rev. 13: 8

c. Lamb that was slain before the foundations of the world were laid.

2. The ownership of this company consist of three entities: The Father, The Son, and the Holy Spirit. They work

in tandem to assure your the utmost return for every deposit you make.

3. The Founder/CEO of this Investment firm is special.

a. He has the ability to see the needs we have today and the ones that are sure to arise in the future. Matt. 6:

8b “… the Father knows what we have need of before we even ask.”

b. He is able to give us individual attention when there are troubled times. I Pet. 5:7 “Cast all your cares on

Him for careth for you.” Never an automated menu prompter!

*. Dial 1 if you are a little anxious.

* Dial 2 if you are moderately anxious.

* If you're overly anxious, hang up and dial 777. Heavenly 777 = earthy 911

* After you've made your selection stay on the line. Your queue number is 1,250,100.

c. He has proven Himself to be consistent and steadfast no matter what the condition or concern of the

investor is.

* He is omnipotent. Rev. 19: 6

* He is faithful to keep what we have committed unto Him. II Tim. 1: 12

4. The Customer Relations Manager is the epitome of dedication.

a. He was the IPO (Initial Public Offering) Phil. 2: 6-8

b. He acts somewhat as a secretary also because all of the CEO’s calls come through Him. He is able to sift

through the request and relay the message to the CEO without error. I Tim. 2: 5 “There is one mediator

between God and man, that man is Jesus Christ.” He knows how to properly approach the CEO when we

are too stressed to do so.

c. His philosophy is simple. It is to love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, soul, and mind and then to love

thy neighbor as thyself.

d. He is the only door we have to pass thru to get to the CEO.

5. The one in charge of preparing the Prospectus.

a. A prospectus is a full disclosure of all parties involved, the investment strategies and the limitations, and

expected returns:we know it better as the Bible, the word of God relayed to the

inspired writers by the Spirit/Comforter.

b. John 16: 12-13 and II Tim. 3: 16.

B.Strategy/returns

1. To protect each CD (celestial deposit) no matter the size because all contributions are relative – until

redemption day. However, there are rewards along the way here on earth.
