He gains nothing but a temporary fleshly enjoyment.

a guy who constructive factors the full international earnings very plenty, exceptionally considering he has no soul to lose. If I had a soul and ought to sell it, i could replace it for countless loving intimacy with the lady i admire....unluckily I have not have been given any soul to sell and so like maximum men, could desire to beg, grovel and pass slowly on my abdomen in servitude to learn even somewhat from her attentions. At moments like those I desire God have been real and that i had a soul to sell to the devil for somewhat lovin'. An eternity in hell ought to no longer obliterate the reminiscence of a life of loving from the only i desire. Sigh! not at all can discover the devil whilst i desire him...oh properly lower back to grovelling....

The net gain (or loss) would depend on the initial worth of the soul (and the whole world, for that matter).

Only those who know the value of their souls can understand or answer this biblical question. To the rest of the world it is foolishness, sadly.
Bless you.

He loses. Our life on this earth is only a short time compared to eternity so are you will to give up eternity in Heaven for 70+ years on this earth?

The world is real but the soul is not... having said that it has a certain poetic truth.

The loss of his soul is everything. He will be in HeLL with satan and the much of humanity. This is not where you want to be. Get a BIBLE and begin your study ASAP! To become a real Christian, we are told that we must HEAR the WORD in John 6:45, Jesus said, “It is written in the prophets, And they shall all be taught by God. Therefore everyone who has heard and learned from the Father comes to Me.” We are also told so in Romans 10:17 So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. We are told the we must BELIEVE in Hebrews 11:6 But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him. We are also told so in Mark 16:16, Jesus said “He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned.” and in John 5:24 "Most assuredly, I say to you, he who hears My word and believes in Him who sent Me has everlasting life, and shall not come into judgment, but has passed from death into life. We are told that we must REPENT (or turn from sin) in Luke 13:3 I tell you, no; but unless you repent you will all likewise perish. Also in Acts 17:30 Truly, these times of ignorance God overlooked, but now commands all men everywhere to repent. We are told to CONFESS CHRIST in Romans 10:9-10 that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. We are also told in 1 Timothy 6:12 Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, to which you were also called and have confessed the good confession in the presence of many witnesses. We are to be BAPTIZED according to Acts 2:38 Then Peter said to them, "Repent, and let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.” and Mark 16:16 He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned. We are to CONTINUE to be FAITHFUL UNTIL DEATH according to Revelation 2:10c Be faithful until death, and I will give you the crown of life. We also know that Paul wrote in Romans 14:12 each of us shall give account of himself to God. It is important that we not ignore what is written, change what is written, or add to what is written in the New Testament which is our Christian Guide. Have a great week.
