The concept of Eternal Investments in the Bible refers to the idea of prioritizing spiritual riches and heavenly rewards over earthly wealth and temporary gains. According to Matthew 6:20, believers are encouraged to "store up for yourselves treasures in heaven," where they will have eternal value, rather than accumulating wealth on earth that is subject to moth and rust.

In 1 Timothy 6:19, the apostle Paul reminds us that by being rich in good deeds and generous in our giving, we can lay a foundation for the coming age and take hold of the life that is truly life.
