Luke 18:18-34The story of the Rich Young Ruler is confusing to some and condemnatory to others, but in the context of Easter, it preaches a joyful message of hope.

In the first sermon of the series 'Am I Doing This Right?' Marcel Hall explores the common question, 'Am I Doing This God Thing Right?' He delves into various aspects of life where we often feel uncertain, from assembling IKEA furniture to practicing faith. Marcel emphasizes the importance of focusing on a relationship with Jesus rather than merely following religious rules. The sermon includes a deep dive into Mark 10, where Jesus addresses the rich young ruler, highlighting the necessity of sacrifice and true commitment. Practical steps for pursuing Jesus and aligning one's life with his teachings are also discussed.00:00 Introduction: Am I Doing This Right?01:45 Introducing the New Series04:14 The Importance of Jesus in Our Faith06:21 The Rich Young Ruler's Story13:21 Signs of Doing It Wrong18:41 The Call to Relationship Over Religion30:15 Practical Steps to Pursue Jesus33:24 Conclusion and Final Thoughts

In Are You a Professer or a Possessor?, Pastor Byron Chesney delivers a powerful and sobering Easter message from Matthew 7:21–23, warning that not everyone who claims to know Christ will enter Heaven. Using Scripture to contrast outward religious appearance with true inward conversion, he exposes the danger of trusting in works, routines, or words without genuine faith and transformation. From Judas to the Rich Young Ruler, Pastor Byron challenges listeners to examine whether they're simply professing Christ—or truly possessing Him through a life of obedience, surrender, and following Jesus. Eternity is at stake. Don't settle for lip service.

Luke 18:18-25

This Sunday we had the senior pastor of Imprint Church, Wole Agbaje. In this episode, he talks about Jesus and the rich young ruler on following Jesus and leaving everything else behind.

This weeks sermon focuses on the challenging teachings of Jesus, specifically His invitation to "Follow Me." Pastor Mike highlights the story of the Rich Young Ruler to explore the cost of following Jesus, urging listeners to identify and surrender the “one thing” standing between them and full devotion to Christ. The message emphasizes that following Jesus requires daily decisions of surrender, evaluation, and action, with the promise of eternal life and a transformed life on earth for those who truly follow Him.

Mark 10:17-31As Jesus started on his way, a man ran up to him and fell on his knees before him. “Good teacher,” he asked, “what must I do to inherit eternal life?” “Why do you call me good?” Jesus answered. “No one is good—except God alone. You know the commandments: ‘You shall not murder, you shall not commit adultery, you shall not steal, you shall not give false testimony, you shall not defraud, honor your father and mother.' ” “Teacher,” he declared, “all these I have kept since I was a boy.” Jesus looked at him and loved him. “One thing you lack,” he said. “Go, sell everything you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.” At this the man's face fell. He went away sad, because he had great wealth. Jesus looked around and said to his disciples, “How hard it is for the rich to enter the kingdom of God!” The disciples were amazed at his words. But Jesus said again, “Children, how hard it is to enter the kingdom of God! It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God.” The disciples were even more amazed, and said to each other, “Who then can be saved?” Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible, but not with God; all things are possible with God.” Then Peter spoke up, “We have left everything to follow you!” “Truly I tell you,” Jesus replied, “no one who has left home or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or fields for me and the gospel will fail to receive a hundred times as much in this present age: homes, brothers, sisters, mothers, children and fields—along with persecutions—and in the age to come eternal life. But many who are first will be last, and the last first.”

Pastor Ryan continues our series in the gospel of Matthew as he preaches on the parable of the Rich Young Ruler and what it means to gain eternal life.

Returning guest preacher Brian Ross continues our Lent series with a sermon from Luke 18:18-30. Sermon originally recorded on March 23rd, 2025.

As we continue in our "Preparing for Calvary" series, Pastor Brian examines the challenging story of the Rich Young Ruler from Mark 10:17-26. He unpacks what it truly means to follow Jesus and the surprising answer to the disciples' crucial question: "Who can be saved?"

In Mark 10:17-31, Jesus challenges a rich man to give up his wealth and follow Him, teaching that salvation is impossible through human effort but possible with God, and promising eternal rewards to those who sacrifice for the gospel.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/lets-talk-scripture/donations

In this episode I explore Paul's exhortation in 2 Thessalonians 3:6-13 where he instructs the Thessalonians that “those that don't work, don't eat” (3:10). Building from last week's episode on 1 Thessalonians 4:9-12, I explain how this passage functioned in its historical context and the principles that we should draw from it to think about economics and politics in the modern world. I justify the Pauline authorship of 2 Thessalonians, and then explain how the themes of persecution, eschatology, and sanctification are central to the letter. Paul encourages Christians to emulate him by embracing a cruciform lifestyle of sacrifice for others and shows himself to be an example because he performed manual labor during his stay in Thessalonica so as not to be a burden to the congregation. In 3:6-13, he challenges the ‘ataktos', the idle or disorderly, to find work and not live off the generosity of other people. Christians should put themselves in a position to help others and charity should only be given to those who are truly in need. We explore the consequences of the principles outlined in this text for the ways in which Christians should think about modern economics and politics.  Media Referenced:1 Thessalonians 4:9-13:1 Peter 2:13-17: https://libertarianchristians.com/episode/ep-121-submit-to-the-authorities-1-peter-213-17/Jesus and the Rich Young Ruler: https://libertarianchristians.com/episode/ep-105-jesus-and-the-rich-young-ruler/1 Timothy 5-6: https://libertarianchristians.com/episode/1-timothy-5-6-widows-wealth-and-the-specter-of-socialism/New Bible Dictionary: https://a.co/d/hGlU7fDKarl Donfried; Paul, Thessalonica, and the Early Church: https://a.co/d/fCdLFc4Bruce Winter; Seek the Welfare of the City: https://a.co/d/ardheBa The Protestant Libertarian Podcast is a project of the Libertarian Christian Institute and a part of the Christians For Liberty Network.

DateMarch 9, 2025SynopsisIn this sermon, we kick off our Lenten series "Glitch" by confronting our impulse to possess rather than receive. When we move from "wow" to "mine," we reveal the twin sins of greed and gluttony—not moral failures to be ashamed of, but glitches in our connection to God and others. Through Jesus's loving encounter with the rich young man, we discover how our grasping hands reflect a deeper grief about our limitations, and how true liberation comes when we unclench our fists. What if the path to resurrection begins with honest recognition of what's "eating at the rind" of our souls?ReferencesScripture: Mark 10:17–22About The Local ChurchFor more information about The Local Church, visit our website.

Pastor Andy Cass Trust looks back, and hope looks forward. In this message, we explore how love, trust, and hope build strong relationships—brick by brick—through practical steps and Christ-centered wisdom. TEXT: 1 Corinthians 13:7, 13, Matthew 19:16-22 NOTES: Trust is essential, but so is hope. Today's Relationship Goals are to: Trust more and Hope more. KEYS TO BUILDING TRUST IN A RELATIONSHIP: -Be a life-giver -Be faithful to your promises, especially the small ones. -Provide and be content with what you have. -Speak truth in love -Honor one another -Choose love: “The Rich Young Ruler was willing to invest only his past into the relationship but refused to invest his future unless he remained in control. He wasn't seeking a healthy relationship—he wanted a self-serving dictatorship.” WHY DO WE LOSE HOPE? -It's taking too long. -It feels too big or too small. -It's just my idea (lack of unity or shared vision). -It seems impossible with no plan. "You have to view yourself as a marital mason. You are daily on the job adding another layer of bricks that will determine the shape of your marriage for days, weeks, and years to come." — Tripp Action Step: Talk about it: -With each other. -With God. -With good and godly counsel.

In this episode, I explain what Paul is doing when he exhorts the Thessalonians to “mind your own business and work with your hands” in 1 Thessalonians 4:9-12. I discuss the problems with historical anachronism and the difference between ancient and modern economic thought. I then discuss the wider context of Paul's though, explaining how his fundamental moral principle is cruciformity (living a life of sacrifice for others) and his views on the nature and responsibility of the church. Paul works to fund his own ministry (1 Cor. 9) as an example of cruciform sacrifice towards his congregations. I explain how Thessalonica was a diverse, cosmopolitan trading city with an independent government, and how Paul's trip to Thessalonica (Acts 17) resulted in synagogue leaders leveraging the local government to harass those that believe in the Gospel. I then turn to 1 Thessalonians as a letter, showing how persecution and eschatology are the two major themes that run through the letter. Paul wants the Thessalonians to imitate him (1:6-7) and explains how he is willing to work to provide for his own needs (2:9-12). Before the final section of 1 Thessalonians, Paul explains how cruciform love and the identity of the church shapes the rest of his exhortation (3:11-13). We then finally come to 1 Thess. 4:9-12. The historical and sociological background of the passage is the Roman patron-client system, where wealthy patrons give gifts of money, clothing, and food to clients in exchange for social clout and political support. Paul wants all Christians to become charitable and benefactors, and his language in 4:9-12 is a rejection of the patron-client system. Paul encourages Christians to leave and reject the patron-client system and instead work with their hands, so that they will not be in need and can help those that genuinely are. This is also an example of the cruciform character of the church to outsiders. I then explain some principles that Christians should derive from this passage and how they should shape our perception of Christian responsibility in the modern world.  Media Referenced:1 Timothy 5-6: https://libertarianchristians.com/episode/1-timothy-5-6-widows-wealth-and-the-specter-of-socialism/Jesus and the Rich Young Ruler: https://libertarianchristians.com/episode/ep-105-jesus-and-the-rich-young-ruler/1 Peter 2:13-17: https://libertarianchristians.com/episode/ep-121-submit-to-the-authorities-1-peter-213-17/Bibleworthy Podcast Appearance: https://bibleworthy.com/8Seek the Welfare of the City, Bruce Winter: https://a.co/d/aYzhQt2Empire, Economics, and the New Testament, Peter Oakes: https://a.co/d/3gsTap5The Moral Teaching of Paul, Victor Furnish: https://a.co/d/dnMNlpB The Protestant Libertarian Podcast is a project of the Libertarian Christian Institute and a part of the Christians For Liberty Network.

In today's devotional study, we focus on the importance of Christ as the only foundation of our faith. Paul warns against spiritual immaturity and urges believers to build their lives on Jesus, not on human leaders, traditions, or temporary things that will not last. Everything we do will be tested by fire, revealing whether our works are built on gold, silver, and costly stones (Spirit-led works) or wood, hay, and straw (temporary, fleshly efforts).Spiritual Immaturity & Growth – Moving beyond divisions and learning to build on Christ.Christ as the Only True Foundation – Recognizing Jesus as the cornerstone of our faith (Psalm 118:22, Matthew 21:42).The Testing of Our Works – Everything we do will be tested by fire to reveal its eternal value (1 Corinthians 3:12-15, Malachi 3:2-3).Biblical Examples – Job's endurance (Job 23:10), the Rich Young Ruler's misplaced priorities (Matthew 19:16-22), and Abraham's faith test (Genesis 22:1-14).

Do you find yourself putting other things before your relationship with God? When the rich young ruler encountered Jesus, he left grieving and sad because he chose his temporal wealth over eternal salvation. He put his earthly treasure above a relationship with Jesus.
