Grace for your spirit
Now there was a rich man, and he habitually dressed in purple and fine linen, joyously living in splendor every day. And a poor man name Lazarus was laid at his gate, covered with sores. Luke 16:19-20
Which kind of person are we drawn to ? Most of us are drawn to the successful and beautiful people, and try to avoid and ignore the poor and needy. What we see on the outside of people may not be an indicator of their hearts. At the end of their lives, in eternity, their positions were reversed. James 2 warns us not to judge with externals when people come into our assemblies. To make distinctions and judge comes from evil motives. We are called and sent to save all souls, not just rich souls. Let's focus on souls for Christ, not what benefits us.
