How many masters can you serve?

Luke Bible Background

04.17.2016 New Testament: Luke 16.13

To read the Bible in a year, read Luke 16.1–18 on April 17, In the year of our Lord 2016

By Don Ruhl

For what or for whom do you live? Who do you serve? Or do you think you do not serve anyone or anything? Jesus taught,

“No servant can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will be loyal to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon” (Luke 16.13).

Mammon is wealth. Do you live for wealth, or do you live for God? Can you know which one you serve? Consider this: Which one do you think that if you had more of it, your life would improve?

Questions:

  • Is money your servant or your master?
  • Do you seek the will of the Lord daily?
