Wealth and Spiritual Poverty1

    The Rich Man and Lazarus

    By John Wesley
    0
    LUK 16:19

    John Wesley preaches on the parable of 'The Rich Man and Lazarus,' emphasizing the stark contrast between earthly wealth and spiritual poverty. He illustrates how the rich man, despite his status and comfort, ends up in torment after death, while Lazarus, a beggar, is comforted in paradise. Wesley argues that true repentance comes from heeding the teachings of Moses and the Prophets, rather than relying on miraculous signs, as even a resurrection from the dead would not persuade the hardened heart. He warns the wealthy of the dangers of complacency and urges all to seek true riches in faith and good works. The sermon concludes with a call to recognize the urgency of repentance and the importance of living according to God's word.
