“G. A.” Matt. 6:19 is surely addressed to the disciples of Christ (see chap. 5:1). And most needful it is that we should attend to such instruction. “Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust [not merely can, but] loth corrupt, and where thieves [not merely can, but do] break through and steal. But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust [not merely can, but] loth corrupt, and where thieves [not merely cannot, but] do not break through nor steal.” You will observe that our blessed Lord is setting forth in this passage the moral characteristics of earth and heaven. There is no such thing as moth, or rust, or thief in heaven. On earth there is. May we set our affections on things above. “Sell that ye have, and give alms; provide yourselves bags which wax not old, a treasure in the heavens that faileth not, where no thief approacheth, neither moth corrupteth.” (Luke 12:33.)
