The Only Thing That Will Matter 100 Years From Now

What will matter a hundred years from now?

Not your car. Not your house. Not your bank account, brand, or social media following. Not your reputation, your friends, or your career.

The only thing that will matter 100 years from now is truth.

Everything you can see or touch will either be gone or changed beyond recognition.

Buildings will collapse. Roads will crumble. Rivers will dry up or shift. Your body will return to dust. Your friends and family will pass from this world. Even heaven and earth, Scripture says, will pass away.

But the Word of God will not.

“For, ‘All people are like grass, and all their glory is like the flowers of the field; the grass withers and the flowers fall, but the word of the Lord endures forever.’ And this is the word that was preached to you.” 1 Peter 1:24,25 (NIV)

God’s Word stands when everything else falls.

Truth is not just a concept. It’s a Person, Jesus Christ.

He doesn’t change, fade, or bow to time. He is the same yesterday, today, and forever.

The War on Truth

In the past eight years, we have seen the most aggressive assault on truth the world has ever known.

Boys are called girls. Lies are called love. Corruption is called justice. Truth is called hate. This is not just cultural confusion. It’s a spiritual war.

Even in the Church, many pulpits bow to culture rather than Christ. What once was preached with fire and conviction is now watered down to avoid offense.

But truth doesn’t evolve. Truth doesn’t negotiate. Truth doesn’t care about popularity polls. Truth is absolute because God is absolute.

Choose What Lasts

You have a choice. Build your life on what will pass away, or anchor it to what will remain forever.

The Word. The Truth. The King.

Take a moment right now to examine what you’re building your life on. Are you chasing things that will crumble, or are you anchoring yourself to the Rock that cannot be moved?

One hundred years from now, the only thing that will matter is what you did with Jesus and His Word.
