Some Lessons
¥Our existence doesnÕt end with death.
ÒWhen youÕre dead, youÕre deadÓ is true, but it doesnÕt mean what a lot of people think it does.
Likewise ÒYou only go thru life onceÓ is true, but the rich manÕs way of Ògetting all the gusto you canÓ didnÕt work very well!
¥The story gives us extreme examples of wealth & poverty to show that our condition in this life is not a good predictor of our condition beyond.
ItÕs our attitude toward God that really counts.
