Numbers
No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon. And the Pharisees also, who were covetous, heard all these things: and they derided him.
Luke 16:13-14
Then let's see how the numbers are written. Perhaps you may already know from seeing them in everyday life. If you have not, let's look at them now.

Maybe your language and culture is different, but the use of numbers seems to be pretty universal. Everything from phone numbers to road signs use them with some in between. Even the markets use them to show how much an item is worth in prices. I guess you could say that phone number must make you a pretty valuable person then, huh? I mean, what do you think? I mean, he must for he sent his son down here for us without price. So yes, I guess it can't compare that with all those digits in your phone number. Next time we'll look at more numbers with Jesus.
