A Warning Against Covetousness (vv. 18-21). 1. The Occasion (rv. 18-15). One of the company requested Jesus to bo umpire in a disputed estate. Two brothers, were in trouble over an In berltauae. Christ refused to enter the sphere of the civil law and warned against the aplrtt of avarice. Christ's mission was preeminently'spiritual. 2. Enforcement of the Wamlqjf (vv. 16-21). The parable of the rich man shows clearly that to be coßcerued with earthly riches while neglecting Ood is the height of folly. The Lord's warning is of great Importance today; for many are seeking gold and forget ting Ood. Note (1) his Increase In goods (v. 18). His riches were rightly obtained, for the ground brought forth plentifully. This shows that a man may be rich because of the Lord's blessing upon him. (2) His perplexity (v. 17). His land waa producing more than his barns would hold. He did not want It to go to waste. If he had pos sessed the right views of life snd a sense of stewardship before Ood, he would have seen (hat his barns at lasst had enough for his personal needs and that he Could have distributed his sur plus to the needy and for benevolent purposes. (8) The fatal choles (vv. 18, 19). He chose to enlarge his barns and give up hla life to ease snd luxury. It ought to be a delightful taak for men whom God has msds rich to devote their time and energy to the distribution of their possessions I to benevolent purposes. (4) The sw ful lrillotn)£u*-(vv. 20, 21). Ood calls him a fo«C \. - ' y 11. Tfc# Certain Cure for Anxiety IVY. S2-S4).- V - Having shown troefnlly of the rich man who gained gold but lost Ood, He now urged the disciples to trust Ood and dismiss all anxious care. He a»- ~ , sured them that they need not be anx ious even for the necessities of llfo. Note: 1. The-Argument (vv. 22, 28). This Is summed up In one brief' sentence: "The life Is more than food, and the body Is more than raiment." The Ood who gave the life and made the body should be trusted to provide food and clothing. 2. The Illustrations (vv. 24 28). (1) God's care for the fowls (yv. 24-26). The ravens do not sow nor reap— they have not storehouse or barn, yet they live, for God feeds them. If Ood does not forget the fowls, certslnly He would do more for His children. (2) God's care for the flowera of the field (vv. 27, 28}. If God Is so careful of those flowers which appear but for a day, how much more will He cloths ■ls children I 'B. The Exhortatlooa (vv. 29-84). (1) Make not the getting of food and clothes your chief concern. Trust God to provide them. (2) Seek th« king dom of God (v. 81). Those who make God's kingdom first shall have all their needs supplied (Phil. 4:19). (8) Bo not afraid (v. 82). God's good pleas ure Is ui>on His own, and all good things will Hs glve them. (4) Prac tice self-denial In order to be able to give gifts to those In need (vv. 88, 84). The doing of such deeds will tend te lift the thoughts upwsrd to Ood— to trust Him. 111. Be Ready for the Coming of tho Lord (vv. 85-40). Having warned the disciples against the acquisition of worldly goods while forgetting Ood, and shown them the Heedlessness of anxiety for food an 4 clothes, He shows them the blessed nees of being In s state of readlneos > when the Lord shsll come. Convic tion ss t# the certainty of the Lord's coming is the sure care for worldUnens snd snxlous care, this attitude of heart He made clear by two parables— that of the returning of the Lord and that of the thief. The Lord will be so pleesed with those who are watting fpr Him that He will take delight In alttlng at the banquet with them, and oven serve them. The parable of the thief shows tbst the time of the Lord's t coming Is not known. Paul's Wish.
