Matthew 19:16-22; Mark 10:17-22; Luke 18:18-23
This is the account of Christ's conversation with a rich young ruler who wanted to learn what he must do to inherit eternal life. Unfortunately, the young man was not willing to do what the Lord requested of him to gain all the blessings and riches that accompany salvation. The reason is that he served another "master" named "mammon" - money. He wanted eternal life, but not at the expense of being separated from his "god" of wealth. Trusting the false "god" of earthly riches inevitably makes one eternally poor.
Does being saved mean a person has to sell everything he has? Absolutely not. Jesus was testing the young man's heart! Listen and learn more. Important lesson!
