As a new Christian I discovered that: Jesus is Lord Conversion doesn’t change the “fast lane” mentality

This lesson is about surviving life in the fast lane, not quitting it!

Rules for Surviving Life in the Fast Lane It’s ok to live in the fast lane

People in the fast lane are there because they like it there, not because they have to be there.

And there are also many other things which Jesus did, which if they were written in detail, I suppose that even the world itself would not contain the books that would be written. - John 21:25

16 And He told them a parable, saying, “The land of a rich man was very productive. 17 And he began reasoning to himself, saying, ‘What shall I do, since I have no place to store my crops?’ 18 Then he said, ‘This is what I will do: I will tear down my barns and build larger ones, and there I will store all my grain and my goods. - Luke 12:16-18

19 And I will say to my soul, “Soul, you have many goods laid up for many years to come; take your ease, eat, drink and be merry.”’ 20 But God said to him, ‘You fool! This very night your soul is required of you; and now who will own what you have prepared?’ 21 So is the man who stores up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God.” - Luke 12:19-21

Judgment comes to everyone in both the slow and fast lanes.
