10 Tweets on “Deaf to God” (Luke 16:11-15,19-31)
Here's last weekend’s sermon in 10 tweets.
Pink Birkin Bag
1/ The Rich Man and Lazarus is about how wealth, by it’s very nature, makes us ridiculous with disastrous results.
2/ There’s probably not a one of us that believes money is as dangerous as Jesus says it is. I’m trying to believe him.
3/ Wealth hardens our hearts toward others.
4/ “It literally is a compassion deficit that’s produced by lots of wealth.”
5/ The rich man is the trajectory of the life of a man who loves money.
6/ You have to intentionally counteract the corrupting power of money and wealth.
7/ Jesus: “The way is easy that leads to destruction.”
8/ Loving money makes us deaf to God.
9/ We simply will not listen to God when money has our devoted attention.
10/ You can’t just stop loving money.
