The Man Who Walked Away / Matthew 19:16-29 / Jason Powell

A man once stood face-to-face with Jesus, asked how to inherit eternal life… and still walked away. In Matthew 19:16–29, we meet the rich young ruler, a man who had everything the world says should make you happy: money, influence, reputation, and success. Yet something inside him still felt empty. In this message, “The Man Who Walked Away,” we walk through the moment that changed everything: • The Confidence – The young man trusted in his morality and achievements. • The Confrontation – Jesus exposed the idol sitting on the throne of his heart. • The Choice – When faced with surrender, he chose what he had instead of what Christ offered. This passage reveals a sobering truth: it is possible to come incredibly close to Jesus and still miss Him. The question this story leaves for every one of us is simple: What will you choose?
