Youth (Matthew 19:16-22) What about us? Is He first? (Ecclesiastes 12:1, 13) Do we consider what we lack? (2 Corinthians 13:5)

Prime of Life (Luke 12:13-21) What caused his downfall? Only thought of self (vv. 20, 21) Didn’t see the vanity of riches (Job 1:21; Ecclesiastes 6:7) Forgot he didn’t control time (Acts 24:25; James 4:13-15)

After Death (Luke 16:19-31) Saddest scene of all Chance to serve God is gone (Acts 17:30, 31; Hebrews 9:27) “Great gulf” (v. 26) No second chance One chance (Matthew 20:1-16) Reap what we sow (Galatians 6:8)

After Death (Luke 16:19-31) Where did he go wrong? In his youth? In the prime of life?

Fate of Those Who Trust In Riches Who are you serving? God of riches (Matthew 6:19) God of heaven (2 Timothy 4:6-8; 1 Peter 1:3, 4)

Conclusion Serving God? Blinded by the god of this world? Why not serve God?
