Two Masters? Lighthouse Church Durban
-
- Christianity
It is impossible to serve two masters, because when they lead in different directions, we can only follow one of them.
Jesus highlighted a master called “Mammon”, or money. John highlighted three other masters: pleasure, possessions, and pride.
The good news is that if we are truly serving Jesus as our master, we will be unable to serve those other masters! Instead of being mastered by money, pleasure, possessions or pride, we can walk in Jesus’ magnificent ways: Putting God’s Kingdom first. Laying down our lives like Jesus did. Being content and generous. And living in the humility that Jesus demonstrated so powerfully.
Luke 16:13-15, 1 John 2:15-17, Matthew 6:33, 1 Timothy 6:6-10
