The Rich Man and Lazarus
- This story of the Rich Man and Lazarus is about the hardness of heart.
- And in the Old Testament the Egyptian Pharaoh of the Exodus is a perfect example
- Exodus 7:3, and a few other verses speak of God hardening Pharaohs heart.
- And experts explain this with an example
- Wax melts in the presence of the warmth of the sun
- While clay hardens in the presence of the warmth of the sun
- God is the same yesterday, today and forever
- i.e. he is good
- And his grace is available for everyone
- How we act with respect to Gods grace
- is what brings us closer to him
- or takes us away from him
- The Rich Man in this story had no time for God
- Life on earth is short
- How would you like to spend it.
- Remember Luke 9:25
- Will it profit you to chase self and treasure on earth
- Or will it profit to make effort to know God
- Here and know
- And for all eternity; so you be able to walk with him.
