Luke 6:24
24“But woe to you who are rich,for you have already received your comfort.
24“But woe to you who are rich,for you have already received your comfort.
The connection that Jesus makes between wealth and comfort here seems very revealing. Could it be that material wealth (and the comfort that it brings) has an alarming potential to dull our sense of need for the Kingdom? Material luxury brings a sense of self-sufficiency so that it’s much more difficult (though not impossible) to recognize any need for life in the way of Jesus. However, while many people are enticed into medicating their lives with possessions and financial prosperity, some are able to see through it and recognize the fact that their material wealth is not bringing them the fulfilment that only life in the Way of Jesus can bring.
