16Jesus told his disciples: "There was a rich man whose manager was accused of wasting his possessions.G1161G3004G2532G4314G846G3101G2258G5100G4145G444G3739G2192G3623G2532G3778G1225G846G5613G1287G846G52242So he called him in and asked him, 'What is this I hear about you? Give an account of your management, because you cannot be manager any longer.'G2532G5455G846G2036G846G5101G191G5124G4012G4675G591G3056G4675G3622G1063G1410G3756G2089G36213"The manager said to himself, 'What shall I do now? My master is taking away my job. I'm not strong enough to dig, and I'm ashamed to beg--G1161G3623G2036G1722G1438G5101G4160G3754G3450G2962G851G575G1700G3622G3756G2480G4626G1871G1534I know what I'll do so that, when I lose my job here, people will welcome me into their houses.'G1097G5101G4160G2443G3752G3179G3622G1209G3165G1519G846G36245"So he called in each one of his master's debtors. He asked the first, 'How much do you owe my master?'G2532G4341G1538G1520G1438G2962G5533G3004G4413G4214G3784G3450G29626"'Eight hundred gallons of olive oil,' he replied. "The manager told him, 'Take your bill, sit down quickly, and make it four hundred.'G1161G2036G1540G943G1637G2532G2036G846G1209G4675G1121G2532G2523G5030G1125G40047"Then he asked the second, 'And how much do you owe?' "'A thousand bushels of wheat,' he replied. "He told him, 'Take your bill and make it eight hundred.'G1899G2036G2087G1161G4214G3784G4771G1161G2036G1540G2884G4621G2532G3004G846G1209G4675G1121G2532G1125G35898"The master commended the dishonest manager because he had acted shrewdly. For the people of this world are more shrewd in dealing with their own kind than are the people of the light.G2532G2962G1867G93G3623G3754G4160G5430G3754G5207G5127G165G1526G1519G1438G1074G5429G5228G5207G54579I tell you, use worldly wealth to gain friends for yourselves, so that when it is gone, you will be welcomed into eternal dwellings.G2504G3004G5213G4160G1438G5384G1537G3126G93G2443G3752G1587G1209G5209G1519G166G463310"Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted with much, and whoever is dishonest with very little will also be dishonest with much.G4103G1722G1646G2076G4103G2532G1722G4183G2532G94G1722G1646G2076G94G2532G1722G418311So if you have not been trustworthy in handling worldly wealth, who will trust you with true riches?G1487G3767G1096G3756G1096G4103G1722G94G3126G5101G4100G5213G4100G22812And if you have not been trustworthy with someone else's property, who will give you property of your own?G2532G1487G1096G3756G1096G4103G1722G245G5101G1325G5213G521213"No servant can serve two masters. Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and Money."G3762G3610G1410G1398G1417G2962G1063G2228G3404G1520G2532G25G2087G2228G472G1520G2532G2706G2087G3756G1410G1398G2316G2532G312614The Pharisees, who loved money, heard all this and were sneering at Jesus.G1161G5330G2532G5225G5366G191G3956G5023G2532G1592G84615He said to them, "You are the ones who justify yourselves in the eyes of men, but God knows your hearts. What is highly valued among men is detestable in God's sight.G2532G2036G846G5210G2075G1344G1438G1799G444G1161G2316G1097G5216G2588G3754G5308G1722G444G2076G946G1799G231616"The Law and the Prophets were proclaimed until John. Since that time, the good news of the kingdom of God is being preached, and everyone is forcing his way into it.G3551G2532G4396G2193G2491G575G5119G932G2316G2097G2532G3956G971G1519G84617It is easier for heaven and earth to disappear than for the least stroke of a pen to drop out of the Law.G1161G2076G2123G3772G2532G1093G3928G2228G3391G2762G3551G409818"Anyone who divorces his wife and marries another woman commits adultery, and the man who marries a divorced woman commits adultery.G3956G630G846G1135G2532G1060G2087G3431G2532G3956G1060G630G575G435G343119"There was a rich man who was dressed in purple and fine linen and lived in luxury every day.G1161G2258G5100G4145G444G2532G1737G4209G2532G1040G2165G2988G2596G225020At his gate was laid a beggar named Lazarus, covered with soresG1161G2258G5100G4434G3686G2976G3739G906G4314G846G4440G166921and longing to eat what fell from the rich man's table. Even the dogs came and licked his sores.G2532G1937G5526G575G5589G3588G4098G575G4145G5132G235G2532G2965G2064G621G846G166822"The time came when the beggar died and the angels carried him to Abraham's side. The rich man also died and was buried.G1161G1096G4434G599G2532G667G5259G32G1519G11G2859G4145G1161G2532G599G2532G229023In hell, where he was in torment, he looked up and saw Abraham far away, with Lazarus by his side.G2532G1722G86G1869G846G3788G5225G1722G931G3708G11G3113G575G2532G2976G1722G846G285924So he called to him, 'Father Abraham, have pity on me and send Lazarus to dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue, because I am in agony in this fire.'G2532G846G5455G2036G3962G11G1653G3165G2532G3992G2976G2443G911G206G846G1147G5204G2532G2711G3450G1100G3754G3600G1722G5026G539525"But Abraham replied, 'Son, remember that in your lifetime you received your good things, while Lazarus received bad things, but now he is comforted here and you are in agony.G1161G11G2036G5043G3415G3754G4771G1722G4675G2222G618G4675G18G2532G3668G2976G2556G1161G3568G3592G3870G1161G4771G360026And besides all this, between us and you a great chasm has been fixed, so that those who want to go from here to you cannot, nor can anyone cross over from there to us.'G2532G1909G3956G5125G3342G2257G2532G5216G4741G3173G5490G4741G3704G2309G1224G1782G4314G5209G3361G1410G3366G1276G4314G2248G156427"He answered, 'Then I beg you, father, send Lazarus to my father's house,G1161G2036G2065G4571G3767G3962G2443G3992G846G1519G3450G3962G362428for I have five brothers. Let him warn them, so that they will not also come to this place of torment.'G1063G2192G4002G80G3704G1263G846G3363G846G2532G2064G1519G5126G5117G93129"Abraham replied, 'They have Moses and the Prophets; let them listen to them.'G11G3004G846G2192G3475G2532G4396G191G84630"'No, father Abraham,' he said, 'but if someone from the dead goes to them, they will repent.'G1161G2036G3780G3962G11G235G1437G5100G4198G4314G846G575G3498G334031"He said to him, 'If they do not listen to Moses and the Prophets, they will not be convinced even if someone rises from the dead.'"G1161G2036G846G1487G191G3756G3475G2532G4396G3761G3982G1437G5100G450G1537G3498
