    Contributed by Chris Appleby on Dec 3, 2002
    based on 9 ratings
     | 8,773 views

    An examination of the infamous Rich Young Ruler that reveals the mistakes mistakes that led to his tragic walkaway from Christ.

    He was a wealthy man, and a young man. His eyes were set on religious matters - on teachers, eternal life, good deeds. He had the look of a seeker: he seemed willing to listen and eager to learn.

    God is not limited by space, knowledge, and power. What this means and how it applies to our lives for people investigating the Christian faith.

    The God Christians worship is the God who has no limits. That’s hard for us to even imagine, because most of our frustrations in life are a direct result of limitations. We’re limited by space because we can only be in one place at one time. A recent television commercial for a new minivan shows a ...read more
