As Jesus expounded on the parable of the dishonest manager, His teaching was clear: we cannot serve both God and money. In this message from Luke 16, Alistair Begg explores how God uses disappointments, disease, and death to wean us from an attachment to this world and focus our eyes on God’s Kingdom. Our hold of this world and its possessions will diminish only when we are gripped by the hope of eternity.
10q“One who is rfaithful in a very little is also faithful in much, and one who is dishonest in a very little is also dishonest in much. 11If then you have not been faithful in the unrighteous wealth, who will entrust to you the true riches? 12And if you have not been faithful in sthat which is another's, who will give you that which is your own? 13pNo servant can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and money.”
14tThe Pharisees, who were ulovers of money, heard all these things, and they vridiculed him. 15And he said to them, “You are those who wjustify yourselves before men, but xGod knows your hearts. For what is exalted among men yis an abomination in the sight of God.
