Sermon Notes

Jesus said, “Watch out! Be on your guard against all kinds of greed; life does not consist in an abundance of possessions.” He went on to tell a parable of a rich man, who in focusing solely on his possessions and his pleasures, was one of those who, “stores up things for themselves but is not rich toward God.” The moral of the story from Jesus was that we are to acquire the right kind of riches. We are to invest in the right kind of treasures, eternal treasures, treasures in heaven, treasures that are characteristic of the kingdom of God. Why? Because, “where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.”
