In the story of the rich young ruler, Jesus reveals a trap many of us fall into: the love of wealth and the illusion of security it gives. To gain true, abundant life, Jesus calls us to let go of what holds us captive—our possessions, our comforts, and anything that keeps us from fully following Him. True freedom comes when we step out of the trap and into His Kingdom, trusting Him above all else. A sermon on Luke 18:18-30.

In the story of the rich man and Lazarus, Jesus confronts us with a sharp contrast: one man carefully keeps his wealth, the other clings only to faith. When eternity comes, the difference couldn’t be clearer. The rich man’s treasures couldn’t cross the great divide—but God’s Word could have bridged it long before. Jesus calls us to a different kind of keeping—not the tightfisted keeping of possessions, but the faithful keeping of his Word. True security isn’t found in what we hold onto, but in the One who holds onto us. A sermon on Luke 16:19-31
