God said to him (the Rich man) “You fool!
This very night your life is being demanded of you
and the things you have prepared, whose will they be? So it is with those who store up treasures for themselves but are not rich toward God.”  –Luke 12:20-21

From Death To Life

You were dead through the trespasses and sins in which you once lived, following the course of the world, following the ruler of the power of the air, the spirit that is now at work among those who are disobedient. All of us once lived among them in the passions of our flesh, following the desires of flesh and senses and we were by nature children of wrath, like everyone else but God who is rich in mercy, out of the great love with which He loved us, even when we were dead through our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ — by grace you have been saved and raised us up with Him and seated us with Him in the Heavenly places in Christ Jesus, so that in the ages to come He might show the immeasurable riches of His grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus. For by grace you have been saved through faith and this is not your own doing; It is the gift of God, not the result of works so that no one may boast. For we are what He has made us, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand to be our way of life.  –Ephesians 2:1-10

The Parable of the Rich Fool

Someone in the crowd said to Him (Jesus), ‘Teacher, tell my brother to divide the family inheritance with me.’ Jesus said to him, “Friend, who set me to be a judge or arbitrator over you?”

Jesus then ministered to the crowd, “Take care! Be on your guard against all kinds of greed; for one’s life does not consist in the abundance of possessions.” Then Jesus told them a parable:

“The land of a rich man produced abundantly and he thought to himself, ‘What should I do, for I have no place to store my crops?’ Then he said, ‘I will do this. I will pull down my barns and build larger ones and there I will store all my grain and my goods and I will say to my soul, soul you have ample goods laid up for many years; relax, eat, drink and be merry.’ God (then) said to him, “You fool! This very night you life is being demanded of you and the things you have prepared, whose will they be? So it is with those who store up treasures for themselves but are not rich toward God.”  –Luke 12:13-21

Jesus said, “The time is fulfilled and the Kingdom of God has come near; Repent and Believe in the Good News!”  –Mark 1:15

If you were to die this day, where will you spend your eternity? You may know the Joy of Salvation Today, Forgiveness of Sins and the Assurance of Eternal Life through The Good News of Christ Jesus!

For God so loved the world (mankind) that He gave His only Son, so that everyone who Believes in Him may not perish but may have Eternal Life!

Indeed, God did not send the Son into the world to condemn the world but in order that the world may be Saved through Him!

Those who Believe in Him are not condemned (to Hell) but those who do not Believe are condemned already because they have not Believed in the Name (Jesus) the only Son of God.  –John 3:16-18

Let it be known to all of you and to all the people of Israel, that this Man is standing before you in good health by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you crucified, whom God raised from the dead. This Jesus is:

‘The Stone that was rejected by you (See: Isaiah 53:3-12) the builders; it has become the cornerstone.’

There is Salvation in no one else, for there is no other Name under Heaven given among mortals (See: Philippians 2:10) by which we must be saved.  –Acts 4:10-12

The New Commandment

Jesus: “I give you a new Commandment,
that you love one another.

Just as I have loved you, (See: John 3:16; 1 John 4:9)

Brothers and Sisters:

“Rejoice in the Lord always,

I shall say it again, rejoice!

Your kindness should be known to all!

The Lord is near.

Have no anxiety at all but in everything,

by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving

make your requests known to God.

Then by the peace of God

that surpasses all understanding

will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.

Finally — whatever is true, whatever is honorable,

whatever is just, whatever is pure,

whatever is lovely, whatever is gracious,

if there is any excellence

and if there is anything worthy of praise,

think about these things.

Keep on doing what you have learned, received,

heard and seen in me. (St. Paul)

Then the God of peace will be with you.” 

–Philippians 4:4-9
