Luke 18:22. Now when Jesus heard these things, he said unto him, Yet lackest thou one thing:
Christ gives him a test. If he is what he thinks he is, he will be ready to obey whatever command God lays upon him. Christ is about to lay one upon him; let us see whether he will obey that.
Luke 18:22. Sell all that thou hast, and distribute unto the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, follow me.
Now, which will he love the more, the Son of God, or his wealth?
