Sermon: Mark 10:13-23; "Guaranteed Treasure In Heaven"
Date: February 9, 2014
Pastor: Michael Howard


Scripture: Mark 10:13-23

13 People were bringing little children to Jesus for him to place
his hands on them, but the disciples rebuked them.
14 When Jesus saw this, he was indignant. He said to them, “Let
the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the
kingdom of God belongs to such as these.
15 Truly I tell you, anyone who will not receive the kingdom of
God like a little child will never enter it.”
16 And he took the children in his arms, placed his hands on them
and blessed them.

17 As Jesus started on his way, a man ran up to him and fell on his
knees before him. “Good teacher,” he asked, “what must I do to
inherit eternal life?”

18 “Why do you call me good?” Jesus answered. “No one is good—except
God alone.
19 You know the commandments: ‘You shall not murder, you shall not
commit adultery, you shall not steal, you shall not give false
testimony, you shall not defraud, honor your father and mother.’”

20 “Teacher,” he declared, “all these I have kept since I was a boy.”

21 Jesus looked at him and loved him. “One thing you lack,” he said.
“Go, sell everything you have and give to the poor, and you will
have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.”

22 At this the man’s face fell. He went away sad, because he had
great wealth.

23 Jesus looked around and said to his disciples, “How hard it is
for the rich to enter the kingdom of God!”
