[:en]Thoughts from Luke 16[:]

[:en]A rich man wanted to fire his manager.  Before the shrewd manager left, he reduced all the debts owed by the debtors.  By doing so, he was using worldly wealth to gain friends for his future.

*We can make friends for the Lord by using money wisely.  Be a good steward by investing your money for the proclamation of the gospel*

The rich man considered wealth as the most important thing in his life.  But when he died, he went to Hades.  Abraham was a wealthy man but after he died, he went to Paradise.

*Money is powerful.  It can help send people to heaven and it can also help send people to hell*
