“What Will It Profit a Man…?”

 (ID: 2477)

Most people would rather pursue their greatest worldly desires before pursuing Christ. But what advantage would there be in gaining everything our heart wants if it costs our whole life? In this message from the Gospel of Matthew, Alistair Begg helps us see how worldly devotion leads to disappointment. When we seek satisfaction in ourselves, we will never be satisfied. In Jesus, though, we are offered an ultimate fulfillment that will never fade.
