- Jesus tells us wealth and status can be impediments to reaching heaven.
- We place too much importance on holding onto these temporal possessions.
- We cannot serve both God and mammon, as noted in last Sunday’s Gospel.
- All that we have is given by the grace of God.
- All we have is to be used to honor and glorify God.
- All we have is to be used, in part, to care for those who are in need.
- Will we be like the rich man and “not listen” to God’s message?
- Where do we recognize Lazarus in our lives?
- What should we do about it?
Will We Listen To God’s Message?
