The sermon centers on Jesus’ warning in Luke 16 that the good news of the kingdom does not cancel God’s word but calls people to trust and obey it. The pastor explains that the real issue in the passage is the love of money: what a person truly treasures will shape their life now and their destiny in eternity. Through the story of the rich man and Lazarus, he says Jesus exposes the danger of living comfortably for this world while ignoring God and the needs of others.
He urges hearers to repent of greed, listen to God’s word now, and use their resources for eternal good rather than temporary security. The sermon points to Jesus himself as the model and hope for this kind of life: though rich in glory, he became poor to save sinners and was raised in triumph. Because of Christ’s resurrection, believers can live courageously, give generously, serve the needy, and invest deeply in the life and mission of the local church.
