Introduction
As the parable of the prodigal son set before us the grace of the gospel, so this sets before us the wrath to come and is designed for our awakening. The tendency of the gospel of Jesus is both to reconcile us to poverty and affliction and to arm us against temptations to worldliness and sensuality. Now, this parable goes far in prosecuting those two great intentions. This parable is not like Jesus’ other parables where He uses natural things to bring about a spiritual meaning. But here the spiritual things themselves are represented in a narrative or description of the different state of good and bad in the world and the world to come. This lesson is about a rich man and a poor man, we don’t know if this rich man shared any of his blessings with others or not, one thing we do know for sure is that he didn’t share it with Lazarus. The rich man enjoyed life, while Lazarus who was poor in need of help laid at the gate of the rich man full of sores desiring to be fed from the crumbs of the rich man table; the dogs had more compassion on the poor man than the rich man. Both men had an appointed time with death, one enters into the bosom of Abraham while the other enters hell.

The Harvest Is Right
Then saith He unto His disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but the laborers are few: Pray ye, therefore, the Lord of the harvest, that He will send forth laborers into His harvest – Matthew 9:37-38.
Jesus chose twelve disciples who traveled with Him as He ministered. He began the vital task of training them as they traveled from town to town, and wherever they went Jesus taught, preached, and healed people, while His disciples assisted Him. The gospel of Matthew gives a glimpse into the heart of Jesus as He was ministering, revealing the drive behind His ministry and His reason for training men to help Him. Read More

Penalty of Sin
But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members. O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death – Romans 7:23-24.
Whoever controls the will, controls the man or woman. If God is in control of your will, He will control your actions. If Satan is in control of your will, he will control your actions. If you are in control of your will, self-will controls your actions. God has given every profession Christian power to overcome their soulish desires. Read More
