What does the Bible say about money? What does the Bible say about death? These are both big questions that are brought up in Psalm 49. When reflecting on death and wealth, it is plain to see that all people die regardless of their income or possessions. The psalmist in Psalm 49 uses this great equalizer to exhort his listeners not to fear the powerful or the wealthy. Instead he turns towards a future redemption, "But God will ransom my soul from the power of Sheol, for he will receive me." (psalm 49:15) When you think about your life, where do you put your hope?
