What good is it for a man to gain the whole world, yet forfeit his soul? Mark 8:36(NIV)
My reflection of the verse
I think this verse is simple to understand. We can be the richest man alive but yet when we die we would not have the crown of gold. It is not bad to be rich but I think God is simply telling us that we can not bring any cent when we die. No matter how many billions you have you won't be able to bring them with you in the next life. What is more important is having an eternal life and be with God when we die.
