Glory to Jesus Christ! Glory Forever!
In this heartfelt homily for the 20th Sunday after Pentecost (Fifth Sunday of Luke), we reflect on one of the most powerful parables told by our Lord Jesus Christ — The Rich Man and Lazarus (Luke 16:19–31).

This sermon invites us to open our eyes and hearts to the suffering around us and reminds us that the sin of the rich man was not wealth, but a heart that had grown cold.
We are called to compassion, mercy, and love — to see our own Lazarus at the gate, whether it be a struggling friend, a lonely family member, or even our own neglected soul.

🙏 Message Highlights:

How spiritual blindness hardens our hearts

Why love and mercy are the path to Heaven

Recognizing “Lazarus” in our daily lives

Serving Christ through acts of compassion

A prayer for open eyes and open hearts

May this reflection awaken your soul to love more deeply and serve more faithfully in Christ.
“Who is lying at your gate?”
