HOW TO REACH THE RICH FOR CHRIST

There is nothing wrong with people possessing riches. The wrong comes when riches possess people. (Billy Graham)
Two things I request of you. Deprive me not before I die.

~ Remove falsehood and lies from me. Give me neither poverty nor riches.
~ Feed me with the food allotted to me, lest I be full and deny you; and say who is the Lord? Or lest I be poor and steal and profane the name of my God.

ROMANS 5:12 / ISAIAH 53:1-11 / EZEKIEL 3:17-21 / 18:4, 20 / MATTHEW 7:13-14 / 28:19-20 / LUKE 24:46-47 / ACTS 17:30-31

The fall of Adam and Eve made sin a universal problem for the young, the old, man and woman, the poor and the rich.
The problem is that sin separates people from the Almighty God (Isaiah 59:1-2).
Sin splits people from having fellowship with God.
Sin brings death to all who are under its power (Ezekiel 18:4, 20).

The death of Jesus Christ and His work of atonement on the cross have made God’s salvation and forgiveness universally available to everybody.
To regain the lost fellowship with God, we only need to come out of sin and return to God (Isaiah 55:6-7).
Jesus the Son of the Living God forewarned us to follow the narrow way and to be careful of the false prophets who are parading themselves in deception (Matthew 7:13-16).
