1 Chronicles 15–16

Colossians 3:15-25
A plastic wrist band from several years ago sported the initials WWJD (What would Jesus do?) The wearer was reminded to respond to life’s situations as Jesus would have. At least that was the intent. Long before someone cashed in on the wrist band idea, Paul gave Christians this rule of thumb: Do everything in the name of Jesus. In other words, to the casual observer, our words and actions should be consistent with all that is represented by the name of Jesus. Such a life inevitably expresses thanks to God. Anything less subtracts from the character and sacrifice of Christ.

• Death ends all—there is no going back. The unnamed rich man would have given anything for a do-over, but death closed the door on that possibility. 
• Memory remains intact on the other side—he showed concern for his brothers who were still alive. God is content with Scripture as his means of conveying salvation truth. 
• Death seals all—the choices we make here impact us for eternity.
