07-27-22 Rich young man

The rich young man who approached Jesus was not tempting him like  the Pharisees did; he seemed sincerely seeking, but was confused. So Jesus bids him to sell everything, give to the poor, and follow him. This seems a call of an apostle. Was this man Matthew? If so, then though the rich man went away sorrowful, he did come back later, as Jesus even suggested he would, saying, With God all  things are possible. Sermon for Midweek of Trinity VI. The video is here.
