Daniel chapter 12, verses 2 and 3.

And many of those who sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake.

Some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt.

And those who are wise shall shine like the brightness of the sky above, and those who turn many

to righteousness like the stars forever and ever. Oh, what powerful imagery and what sobering reality.

Verse two, those who sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life,

and some to shame and everlasting contempt. All people, every single one of us listening to this,

every single person in the world will one day die. Jesus continues to Terry. We will die,

and we will rise, every one of us either to everlasting

life or to everlasting contempt. That in and of itself should remind us today to live for

what's going to matter forever, which means to live, to lead others to everlasting life,

which is exactly what verse 3 says.

Those who are wise will shine like the brightness of the sky above.

And those who follow this turn many to righteousness like the stars forever and ever.

You want your life to shine like the brightness of the sky,

like stars in the night,

then live to turn many to righteousness.

Live to lead people to everlasting life.

This is what wisdom is.

Those who are wise will shine like this.

And those who turn many to righteousness will shine like the stars forever and ever.
