📚 About this Book
✦ Chapter Overview

In this chapter Jesus tells a parable about a rich man who loses all his possessions and a poor man who gains them, warning that the kingdom of God will be marked by great suffering and that those who endure will inherit the earth. He also instructs the disciples that they must be ready to suffer and that their lives will be tested before the end of the age.
