We need to learn from and heed the powerful lessons of the first words of the story of Christmas—the colossal failure of Herod’s life. The lesson of the tragic life of Herod shows that Herod gained the whole world but lost his own soul. Look at Christ’s words in Matthew 16:26:
Matthew 16:26 For what profit is it to a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul? Or what will a man give in exchange for his soul?
Beware of spending so much time on this life (the short earthly one) that you miss out getting ready for the next life (the endless, eternal one).
