Got LIFE?

Luke 16:22 NKJV

So it was that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels to  Abraham’s bosom. The rich man also died and was buried.

Its still early for lunch. Time now is 11:15am. My lunch is Luke 16:22. Lets feed our spirit. Thank You Holy Spirit for teaching me and providing lunch for me. Bless the Word and as i eat the Word, let it bring life into my Spirit. Amen.

What i have learned from this passage is two words - carried by the angels and was buried. I ask God why the poor carried away and the rich was buried.

And He answered, though the begger, a poor man, but he was rich in spirit. And lived a God fearing life. He had LIFE in him and thats why he was carried away the moment his body died.

The rich man with all richest he had, he neglected LIFE, he was spiritually dead, therefore the moment he died, he was buried.

Thats why there is a scripture in the Bible says,"better for a camel to go through the needles hole than a rich man going to heaven." People want to be rich but neglects the life Giver. They think money can buy anything, yes but No. Money can't buy salvation for you. It happens when a person repents wholeheartedly.

Both rich and poor can go to heaven if they have LIFE in them. If they have JESUS in them. We receive His blessings and know His word, but do we know Him?
