God's Generousity in the Manifold Blessing

Matthew 19:27-29

27 Then Peter said in reply, “See, we have left everything and followed you. What then will we have?”

28 Jesus said to them, “Truly, I say to you, in the new world, when the Son of Man will sit on his glorious throne, you who have followed me will also sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

And everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or children or lands, for my name's sake, will receive a hundredfold/manifold and will inherit eternal life.

When we feel God is stingy and we have sacrificed much, we must remember the that the blessing of following Christ all the way is 1) a throne in the Kingdom 2) the manifold blessing of Christ 3) eternal life
