“The rich man also died…” Riches and power will not prevent death. All die. But what happens after death? Luke 16:19-31
Nothing in this world can keep you from dying Including material wealth or power (Psalm 49:6-13; Eccl. 8:8)
You can’t take it with you when you go. (Psalm 49:16-17; Eccl You can’t take it with you when you go! (Psalm 49:16-17; Eccl. 5:15; 1 Tim 6:7-8) We must focus on what life is really about (Luke 12:15-34) Earthly life and eternal life are comprised of more than the things of this world
What will happen after death? Christ alone offers hope as you face death’s certainty (Heb. 9:27; 2 Tim. 1:10; Rev. 1:18) You will either be taken to paradise or torment (Luke 16:22-31; 23:43; 2 Peter 2:4) Your fate is fixed as you await the resurrection (John 5:28-29; 1 Cor. 15:35-44)
