Many of us know people who “hoard” things. There is a TV show about them: “Hoarders”.
What is “hoarding”? It is “The compulsion to continually accumulate a variety of items that are often considered useless or worthless by others. It is accompanied by an inability to discard the items without great distress.”
A second kind of “hoarder” fills their minds with ideas that are “useless or worthless”.
A third kind of “hoarder” accumulates sins.
All “hoarders” believe: “I must have what I want.” Three questions for the three kinds of “hoarders”:
~
Question 1. “Should I hire a professional appraiser to see what my ‘things’ are actually worth?”
My answer: “Yes.” ___. “No.” ___. “I don’t care what my things are worth. I love them!” ___.
~
God took human form. When He was on earth, Jesus Christ Spoke One Church Into Being. “And I say unto you thou art Peter and on this rock I build My Church and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. I give you the keys to The Kingdom of Heaven.”
Question 2. “Should I get rid of ideas I have accumulated that disagree with Any Teachings from God?”
My answer: “Yes.” ___. ‘No.” ___. “I don’t care if God likes my thoughts and beliefs. I like them!” ___.
~
Some “hoarders” proudly collect sins. “I am proud of all that I have thought, said, and done!” They brag to each other about festering piles of Pride, Envy, Greed, Gluttony, Anger, Lust, and Sloth in their minds.
Question 3. “Do I ever think about where God will send my immortal soul to spend eternity?”
My answer: “Yes.” ___. “No.” ___. “I only think about what I want!” ___.

All “hoarders” hate the thought that God, or any person, is able to judge them!
