King Jesus offers a form of abundance this world knows nothing about!
• The world says I am first. Jesus says I am a distant third. Matt 22:34-40; Luke 10:25-37; Luke 15:3-7
• The world says it’s better to gain. Jesus says it’s better to give. Matt. 23:11-12; Acts 20:35
• The world values comfort. Jesus values purpose. Matt. 28:18-20; 16:25; Luke 12:16-21
• The world values tolerance. Jesus values compassionate justice. Isaiah 58:6-9; Matt. 9:35-38
• The world lives for today. Jesus lives for what’s everlasting. John 10:10; 3:16; 17:20

King Jesus’ invitation to experience true abundant life still stands today…but we must
