Luke 12:13-21
1. What makes rich men foolish?
Be on your guard against all kinds of greed; a man's life does not consist in the abundance of his possessions.
If we just take life easy; eat, drink and be merry, what if this very night your life will be demanded from you? Then who will get what you have prepared for yourself?
This is how it will be with anyone who stores up things for himself but is not rich toward God.
2 Corinthians 5:1-5
2. How does Paul view his death?
Now we know that if the earthly tent we live in is destroyed, we have a building from God, an eternal house in heaven, not built by human hands.
Meanwhile we groan, longing to be clothed with our heavenly dwelling, because when we are clothed, we will not be found naked.
For while we are in this tent, we groan and are burdened, because we do not wish to be unclothed but to be clothed with our heavenly dwelling, so that what is mortal may be swallowed up by life.
Now it is God who has made us for this very purpose and has given us the Spirit as a deposit, guaranteeing what is to come.
