Dying As A Wealthy Woman
Text: 2 Cor. 5:1-9.
Introduction: She was a wealthy woman not so
much in dollars and cents but in many other ways.
I. She Had A Potentate To Save (the Lord Jesus)
"Only Potentate"(1 Tim. 6:15)
A. Out of goodness
B. Out of grace
C. For His glory
II. She Had Promises To Claim
A. Shepherd in life
B. Shepherd in death
III. She Had People To Care
A. Biological Family- did what they could
B. Church Family- people who visited, sent cards, expressions of love
C. Community Family- show they cared during sickness and in death.
IV. She Had A Place To Go
Compare Jn. 14:1-3.
A. Place of beauty (staggers imagination)
B. Place of bounty (all ever need there)
C. Place of blessedness (no sin to deal with forever)
V. She Had Persons To Meet
A. The Lord ( in all his beauty) (I Jn. 3:2)
B. The Loved Ones (saints gone on before)
C. The Lofty Beings (angelic creatures)
Conclusion:
True wealth is not weighed in dollars and cents but in
what we
have than is unseen. The true Christian has treasures unseen.
Let's build our treasure up in heaven where the moth cannot corrupt and
thieves cannot break through and steal.
