Episode Details

This sermon on Luke 16 explores the parable of the rich man and Lazarus as a lesson about justification: the Pharisees’ self-justification before people versus God’s true reckoning.

It contrasts earthly honor with divine judgment, showing that Lazarus is clothed with righteousness through faith in Christ, while the rich man’s human approval proves worthless before God.

The preacher calls believers to imitate Christ by sacrificing worldly status, loving neighbors, and accepting suffering, confident that in Christ the poor are made rich and the faithful are truly justified.
