Sermon #516
As we continue to look at what it means to be a disciple of Christ, we come to a particularly difficult passage, one of the so-called "hard sayings" of Jesus. On the surface, it seems that Jesus may be suggesting that the disciples act dishonestly when dealing with worldly issues. Yet when we probe deeper and look at the passage in its proper context, we see that what is in view here is to use the resources that God gives to us - which can often be colored in dishonest gain - to bring others to repentance and faith in Christ, that we may build an eternal kingdom, rather than a temporal one that we will leave behind when we die. It is a difficult passage and a challenging message.
Luke 16:1-13
