8/16/11 cblog WARNING TO THE RICH OF A SENSE OF FALSE SECURITY ; callistus m: "Jesus had rich friends..never said rich people were evil but having much money cn prevent people from loving god..let god be god..even let god be the source of their wealth..even now jewish people believe wealth is a sign of god' blessing..yet when people bc rich they invest most of their time into protecting their wealth..when they r rich they may have false sense of security..they think they have everything..hard for people to let go..let god be in the life of the rich..why jesus ..peter after hearing this..said "who can be saved'..will we be saved..jesus told him follow me..the world....at te end the rich will serve the poor ? Or the first will serve the last..take care of what we have..be good stewards..time talents gifts..be good stewards..make use of wisely.." Judges 6.11-24 "The angel of the LORD came and sat under the terebinth in Ophrah that belonged to Joash the Abiezrite. While his son Gideon was beating out wheat in the wine press to save it from the Midianites, the angel of the LORD appeared to him and said"The LORD is with you, O champion!" Gideon said to him, "My Lord, if the LORD is with us why has all this happened to us" Where are his wondrous deeds of which our fathers told us when they said, "Did not the LORD bring us up from Egypt?" For now the LORD has abandoned us and has delivered us into the power of Midian." The LORD turned to him and said, "Go with the strength you have and save Israel from the power of Midian It is I who send you." But Gideon answered him, "Please, my lord, how can I save Israel? My family is the lowliest in Manasseh and I am the most insignificant in my father's house.""I shall be with you," the LORD said to him,"and you will cut down Midian to the last man." Gideon answered him, "If I find favor with you give me a sign that you are speaking with me Do not depart from here, I pray you, until I come back to you and bring out my offering and set it before you." He answered, "I will await your return." So Gideon went off and prepared a kid and a measure of flour in the form of unleavened cakes Putting the meat in a basket and the broth in a pot he brought them out to him under the terebinth and presented them The angel of God said to him, "Take the meat and unleavened cakes and lay them on this rock; then pour out the broth." When he had done so the angel of the LORD stretched out the tip of the staff he held and touched the meat and unleavened cakes Thereupon a fire came up from the rock that consumed the meat and unleavened cakes and the angel of the LORD disappeared from sight. Gideon, now aware that it had been the angel of the LORD, said, "Alas, Lord GOD that I have seen the angel of the LORD face to face!" The LORD answered him,"Be calm, do not fear. You shall not die." So Gideon built there an altar to the LORD and called it Yahweh-shalom Responsorial Psalm 11-12, 13-14 Responsorial Psalm R. (see 9b) The Lord speaks of peace to his peopl Matt 19/23-30 "Jesus said to his disciples“Amen, I say to you, it will be hard for one who is rich to enter the Kingdom of heaven Again I say to you it is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for one who is rich to enter the Kingdom of God.” When the disciples heard this, they were greatly astonished and said“Who then can be saved?” Jesus looked at them and said“For men this is impossible, but for God all things are possible.” Then Peter said to him in reply“We have given up everything and followed you What will there be for us?” Jesus said to them, “Amen, I say to you that you who have followed me, in the new age when the Son of Man is seated on his throne of glory, will yourselves sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel And everyone who has given up houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or children or lands for the sake of my name will receive a hundred times more, and will inherit eternal life. But many who are first will be last, and the last will be first"
