What Does the Lord Require of You | Pr. Roy Gane

The story of the rich young ruler explores the profound question of inheriting eternal life. Despite his wealth and status, this young man sensed something missing and sought Jesus for answers. Jesus challenged him to move beyond rule-following to a deeper commitment—selling his possessions, giving to the poor, and following Christ. This encounter reveals that eternal life isn't earned through moral behavior but received as a gift when we do justly, love mercy, and walk humbly with God. The rich ruler's inability to let go of his wealth highlights our own struggle to surrender what we value most to fully follow Jesus.
