    The Rich Man And Lazarus

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Sep 14, 2013
    based on 7 ratings
     | 17,127 views

    Death is the great leveler. Not all rich men go to hell, nor do all poor men go to heaven. It was how Lazarus lived his life before God, and how the rich man squandered his opportunities, that determined their differing destinies.

    THE RICH MAN AND LAZARUS. Luke 16:19-31. It was against the Pharisees who were lovers of money that Jesus spoke the parable of the rich man and Lazarus. It is a sad story, which shows two men in quite different lifestyles in this life, and the fate of each of them in the life to come. 1. The ...read more

    This is the story of Romans 8:35-39. God loves you with a love so strong that nothing can separate you from it. Wherever you go, whatever you do, God’s amazing love will go with you, envelope you, encapsulate you, strengthen you, carry you, and give you hope and courage.

    Chippie the parakeet was sitting on his perch one morning … whistling a happy tune … when his owner decided to clean his cage … [pause] … with a vacuum cleaner. The phone rang and when Chippie’s owner went to answer it … well … that’s when Chippie’s day took a turn for the worse. While his owner ...read more

    Let The Brother Of Low Degree Rejoice In That He Is Exalted: Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Mar 26, 2021
     | 2,071 views

    As James talks about the poor (9) and rich Christians (10), he has his mind set on more than current positions, wealth, and actions. He knows that God will be inspecting our lives not as they are now but as a completed work made up of millions of decisions.

    Tom Lowe 1/19/2021 Text – James 1:9 (KJV) Let the brother of low degree rejoice in that he is exalted: INTRODUCTION As James talks about the poor (9) and rich Christians (10), he has his mind set on more than current positions, wealth, and actions.

    Give To God What You Have

    When we offer what we have to God – our wealth, our possession, our talents, or time - God blesses us abundantly in return, more than we ask or think.

    Offer what you have to God and you can see God’s blessings. • Simon offered what he has to Jesus; Jesus in return gave him what He can give. • He offered a fishing boat to preach on. Jesus gave him boats filled with fishes. • Jesus rewards him, and bless him with what he really wants – ...read more

    When you think of a hero, you’re usually inclined to think of strength, great intellect, personal charisma and beauty, or enormous wealth, perhaps a profound drive for justice. Not exactly the case with Gideon.

    Speaking of Gideon Judges 6:11-16 When you think of a hero, you’re usually inclined to think of strength, great intellect, personal charisma and beauty, or enormous wealth, perhaps a profound drive for justice. Today we are going to look a biblical hero. But our hero today had none of these. ...read more

    Believer's need to come to an understanding of the power and privilege made available to us by virtue of our new position in Christ , that is, that we have full access to God and thereby to a wealth of resources and blessings.

    We live in a day that is tagged by increased availability of resources and information. Things which were at one time inaccessible are now readily available. Technological advancement puts things within reasonable reach. And so from the inception of the internet all it takes is the tap of button ...read more

    The world is operating on jet speed and everybody is living, as though there is no end to this life. They run, sweat and beat themselves to amass wealth but alas many fail to understand that God is preparing us for His Kingdom!

    Kingdom of God! A) Look, it’s me! Acts 1:3” During the forty days after His crucifixion he appeared to the apostles from time to time, actually alive, and proved to them in many ways that it was really he himself they were seeing. And on these occasions he talked to them about the ...read more

    What's Jesus teaching us in the story of the dishonest manage? How do we use earthly wealth to gain friends? How can we be faithful with what God has entrusted to us?

    Human beings love to be respected and elevated. We like to showcase our skills, talents, wealth, affluence, intellect and so on. We boast of these qualities to step up the social ladder of the society.

    How did the people in today’s text handle their material things and wealth? Did they withhold any resources? Today we will look at the greed, grace and how strong their grip is in our lives.

    LIVING IN COMMUNITY Acts 4:32 – 35 Acts 4:32-35  Now the whole group of those who believed were of one heart and soul, and no one claimed private ownership of any possessions, but everything they owned was held in common.  (33)  With great power the apostles gave their testimony ...read more

    Every one of us is placing our hope in something. Some put their trust in wealth, some in status, others in relationships. But as followers of Christ, we are called to place our hope in the living God.

    Go! And Trust in the Living God! - 1 Timothy 4:10 1 Timothy 4:10 (NLT)"This is why we work hard and continue to struggle, for our hope is in the living God, who is the Savior of all people and particularly of all believers." Introduction Every one of us is placing our hope in ...read more

     | 6,064 views

    When we give, not just out of our wealth, but as a sacrifice it counts as a credit with God, a fragrant offering, an acceptable sacrifice, pleasing to God, that opens up God's riches to meet our needs.

    A little girl once planned to give her father a pair of slippers for his birthday. When asked where she would get the money, she confidently replied, "Father will give it to me." Although it may seem strange for a father to buy his own gift, the father appreciated the gesture and the love behind ...read more

    The secret to the tremendous growth of the early church was their unity and generosity. God has blessed us to be a blessing. May we be wise stewards who will use worldly wealth for godly purposes and invest for eternity.

    Today’s meditation is based on Acts 4:32, “The group of believers was one in mind and heart. None of them said that any of their belongings were their own, but they all shared with one another everything they had.” (GNB) Those of us who have been born again as children of God, and have the ...read more

    With the announcement of the Vatican that they were adding to the Seven Deadly Sins I thought it would be a good time to look at sin.

    Has anyone been following the series in the Chronicle on the “Seven Deadly Sins?” It started last Saturday along with a report that the Catholic Church had modified the original list and added 7 more. Not sure that I necessarily agree with their selection of new “Sins” or even in their decision ...read more
