What is the biblical balance in the new covenant for seeking/desiring a good or better life on earth, and not living for this life?
1 Peter 3:10
“He who would love life
And see good days,
Let him refrain his tongue from evil,
And his lips from speaking deceit.
Ephesians 6:2-3
“Honor your father and mother,” which is the first commandment with promise: “that it may be well with you and you may live long on the earth.”
vs
Luke 12:33-34
Sell what you have and give alms; provide yourselves money bags which do not grow old, a treasure in the heavens that does not fail, where no thief approaches nor moth destroys. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
