Richard C. H. Lenski, Lutheran pastor, comments on following Christ from (Lk 16:19-31,18:18-23). Some might actually have to sell their riches. It’s better to be borne aloft my angels than to be cast into torment as was the rich man in the story of Lazarus.

How many people would insist on their identity as following in Christ’s footsteps without thinking anything about Lazarus?

How can you kill the love of riches?

RICHARD CHARLES HENRY LENSKI (1864-1936) In His Footsteps "To kill the love of riches, and our dependence upon money, it may be necessary to take the heroic measure needful in the case of the rich young ruler, who was bidden to sell all that he had and give to the poor. It is better for a man to be borne aloft by angel-hands from poverty as distressing as that of Lazarus, than to be cast into torment after dining and dying in surroundings as luxurious as those of Dives."
