Luke 12

Jesus warns against Pharisaic hypocrisy, teaches fear of God rather than men, assures disciples of the Father’s care, and warns against denying Him. A man’s inheritance request leads to the rich fool parable, followed by teaching against anxious materialism and toward treasure in heaven. Jesus then calls servants to readiness, explains differing accountability, speaks of coming division, and urges discernment of the times.
