Sermon: Looks Can Be Deceiving | Luke 16:19–31 | The Rich Man and Lazarus
Looks Can Be Deceiving | Luke 16:19–31 | The Rich Man and Lazarus
Looks can be deceiving. By all appearances, the rich man in Jesus’ story was “blessed.” He had everything he wanted, lived in luxury, and was admired by others. It seemed as though God approved of his life. Meanwhile, Lazarus appeared “cursed”—homeless, sick, hungry, and ignored. Yet appearances were not the truth. In the end, the one who looked blessed was cursed, and the one who looked cursed was blessed.
So how do we know who is truly blessed? Not by what our eyes see or by the world’s opinions, but by what our ears hear. God’s Word tells us the truth. It reveals who we are in Christ—despite appearances, feelings, or the judgments of others. The question is: will we believe what the Word of God says?
