God freely forgives our sin through the gospel, but he doesn’t intend to leave us in our sins. Genuine faith should lead to a change of heart, and according to Jesus’ teaching in Luke 16:19–31, that change of heart should be evident in the way we treat the poor. Sadly, we are often tempted to ignore the needs of others while prioritizing our own comfort. In this message, David Platt urges us to consider our treatment of the poor and needy as an indication of the condition of our hearts. At the same time, our use of money should not be motivated by guilt but rather by grace.
We want to invite you to something we look forward to every year: Secret Church.
This year, we’ll study the life of Elijah. We’ll pray specifically for those who are suffering for their faith, and we’ll act together to make Jesus known among the nations. Early registration at the best rate is now open through February 17.
