This text is not about riches
1tim 6:
It’s about the heart; loving the wrong things
Chris Rice
I wake to find my soul in fragments
Given to a thousand loves
But only One will have no rival
Hangs to heal me, spills His blood
It’s about the will; bowing to the wrong things
1875 - William Ernest Henley
How charged with punishments the scroll,
How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate,
It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate,
I am the captain of my soul.
Henley was blind as well, for we are all born slaves to sin and self, which manifests in many ways:
I am the captain of my soul.
slavery to style and popularity
slavery to vanity
slavery to various idols
slavery to a false self image
slavery to riches
To be a servant of Christ is to find true freedom
The realities of Heaven and Hell
ps 146
Because the rich man loved and was slave to his riches, he was blinded to the realities ahead
Abraham’s Side
Carried by angels
Now comforted
no mention of sores
no mention of sores
reclining at meal
by Abraham’s side; position of honor
We do not have a specific description; only that it will surpass every imagination
A chasm is fixed - security
Hell’s Torments
In torment; not merely being tormented
Seeing Abraham; awareness
In Flames;
A chasm is fixed
There are no more chances
There will be no end of desperation
Warn my brothers
Living with eyes opened
Living
Godliness with contentment
Not one or the other; both and
Rooted in God’s sovereignty
In light of this world’s temporary nature
FIGHT!
Be at peace with people; at war with sin
Active
Reach People
I believe in God, and the Bible is His Word
So I believe in a literal Heaven and Hell
In the same book, God says to love our neighbor
There is no gimmick, no formula, no fear tactic to conversion
But faith does come from hearing and hearing the Word of God
The good news is here and available and effective today:
Jesus was born to a virgin, laid in a manger, and worshipped by angels and shepherds
lived a perfect life because we don’t
died a death in our place to satisfy the just wrath of God
rose on the third day, victorious over death, Hell, and the grave.
is now seated at
He is now seated at the Father’s right hand,
He is making intercession for His own
He is with the Father, still sending the Spirit to draw and to save
He will one day return to take all who trust Him to enjoy paradise forever
No matter who or what your true love is, no matter who or what you bow to in service and worship, the Lord Jesus invites you today to open your eyes to eternal realities, to inherit eternal life by trusting in His finished work, and then to live like you have.
No gimmicks, no scare tactics; just the Word of God; Moses, the prophets, and the gospel of Jesus Christ.
