  ...simply sobering, convicting, and upward gazing

  Thank you so much for sharing this word. I come from a wealthy(yet Godly) family. I am about to turn 31 and sometimes I face a huge crisis in  my life because I have not yet defined my career and it seems like I won't be as successful as my parents. I just took a break from Law School and now I believe God is calling me to the mission field. Even if I'm wrong, I believe God is showing me that I do not need a great career or to be successful lawyer. I need to pursue the kingdom of God. If He wants me to be a lawyer, I'll be a lawyer for the glory of God and not to have a great career.

  I certainly have great respect that for D.A Carson.A caveate is that the issue of rich and poor must also be seen in regards to the disasterous "Usuary", that the modern day Pharisees run!

  Hell or Hades is temporary as recorded in Rev 20v13 for the dead are raised out of Hades/Hell to be judged according to their works. The lake of fire is permanent though.

  It shouldn't be surprising how rich Jesus' stories are. D.A. Carson can speak an hour on some of this stories elements and only begin to plumb the depths. I found the social construct of acceptable distance significant. I have not heard it mentioned before. Abraham's bosom is not a "compartment in hell" in the afterlife, but a measure of closeness, intimacy between Lazarus and Abraham (cf. Jesus and John).

  I&apos;m just passing through and stopped to say that it&apos;s not a parable. As in, it is what it is and means what is said.
