A Reality Check from Beyond the Grave (Part 2 of 2)

The story of the rich man and Lazarus is here to show us what matters in the long run and what does not. The rich man enjoyed good things in this life, but they mean nothing to him beyond the grave—where he finds himself excluded from the bliss of the Lord’s presence and the Kingdom. From the other side of the grave, his greatest wish is for his loved ones to be warned to repent, but he is powerless to help them by that time. This vision of eternity gives us a powerful and clear perspective on wealth and what really matters.
