If you had invested $100 with billionaire Warren Buffet forty years ago, you would be boo-coo rich today. It’s the same thing with a dozen other prosperous companies. Doubling your money is one thing, tripling your money is another, but a hundred times your investment—a thousand times your investment! Do ordinary people really make that kind of an investment? Yes, but it’s rare. Very rare. You must assess the risk to reward ratio and know something about the people involved, the potential market capability, and grasp the growth potential. Many investors feel that real riches are in how one spends money verses making it.
Sometimes the most successful investments in history are a quick decision made on-the-spot merely because someone close to you says, “C’mon try it”. You are about to witness one of the greatest investments in all of history! Talk about a leap of faith! In less than a minute, one tip would change the course of a man’s life—the course of history—and maybe even your life!
Jesus had finished his carpentry business and was about to turn the whole world on its self-inflated bobble head. Starting his ministry, Jesus began crisscrossing the country teaching and healing. One day as Jesus was teaching, there were Pharisees and teachers of the law that came from all parts of the country to listen to him. After healing a paralytic man, they were filled with awe and said, “We have seen remarkable things today.” Luke 5 They spoke the truth, but something even more miraculous was about to transpire. Seeing a miracle is a privilege; being part of a miracle is awesome.
“After this, Jesus went out and saw a tax collector by the name of Levi sitting at his tax booth, “Follow me,” Jesus said to him, And Levi got up, left everything and followed him.” Luke 5:27-28
This man Levi, you know as Matthew, one of the gospel writers. Writing from a Jewish perspective, Matthew was paramount in reaching the Jews who were seeking the truth about Jesus. The best tip ever—“Follow Me”!
