    Rather than comparing ourselves to the rich man or Lazarus, congregation members are invited to see themselves through the five brothers of the rich man. Jesus’ parable reminds us we have all we need, God’s Word.

     | 4,299 views

    The teaching of Jesus is not complicated. Love God and love others. We do this by serving people and sharing the Good News of Jesus with them. And Obey God. We do this by submitting to the authority of Jesus through prayer and living out His Will, His purpose and priorities.

    Last week we discussed that the core of Jesus teaching is this truth, He must be at the center of all we do and think. Last Sunday we discussed the priorities of Jesus. His two priorities are to love God and others and to obey God. These are His priorities so they must be the priorities of ...read more
