In Luke Chapter 16, through the story of the Rich Man and Lazarus, the Lord Jesus dispels four myths about death:
Myth 1: The teaching of universalism at death
Myth 2: The teaching of annihilation at death
Myth 3: The teaching of a second chance for the unbeliever after death
Myth 4: The teaching of purgatory for the believer after death
What was the reason why Jesus told this story/parable of the Rich Man and Lazarus?
It is because the Lord Jesus wants us to know not only the reality of heaven, but also the reality of hell for all those who refuse to hear His Word and trust in Christ alone for their salvation.
