Luke 16:22 ²² “The time came when the beggar died and the angels carried him to Abraham’s side. The rich man also died and was buried.

Background Luke 16:19-30

• Jesus describes in this parable that a new era is born
• The new era is based on belief and faith, not on money and riches

What do we learn from this parable?

• We need to care for each other, so that as many as possible people will enjoy, like Lazarus, heaven
• Care for those who God put in your life
• Share your knowledge
• If you sinned, return to the Father’s house, like Prodigal’s son

What will happen to you when you show faith and belief?

• God will change your status and you are not a beggar anymore
• You will be elevated over those  who oppress you (like the rich man did to Lazarus)
