Heavenly Needs

"Brethren, if anyone among you wanders from the truth, and someone turns him back, let him know that he who turns a sinner from the error of his way will save a soul from death and cover a multitude of sins." (James 5.19-20 NKJV) The truth is readily complicated in the atmosphere of great needs. Besides the pressure to supply the basic needs of life, truth is mostly expected to travel along the material prosperity lane. Consequently, error sells faster, when packaged with the provision of human's earthly needs. Sincerely, nothing would have been wrong with the provision of earthly needs, if the way of salvation from sin is not compromised. The scripture says " what shall it profit a man, if he gains the whole world and loses his soul ?". Therefore, heavenly needs of redemption are satisfied by those who value the gain of a soul over the prosperity of the body.
