⏳ *MATTHEW 25:14-30.* π
14: For the kingdom of heaven is as a man travelling into a far country, who called his own servants, and delivered unto them his goods.
15: And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one; to every man according to his several ability; and straightway took his journey.
16: Then he that had received the five talents went and traded with the same, and made them other five talents.
17: And likewise he that had received two, he also gained other two.
18: But he that had received one went and digged in the earth, and hid his lord's money.
19: After a long time the lord of those servants cometh, and reckoneth with them.
20: And so he that had received five talents came and brought other five talents, saying, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me five talents: behold, I have gained beside them five talents more.
21: His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.
22: He also that had received two talents came and said, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me two talents: behold, I have gained two other talents beside them.
23: His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.
24: Then he which had received the one talent came and said, Lord, I knew thee that thou art an hard man, reaping where thou hast not sown, and gathering where thou hast not strawed:
25: And I was afraid, and went and hid thy talent in the earth: lo, there thou hast that is thine.
26: His lord answered and said unto him, Thou wicked and slothful servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I have not strawed:
27: Thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to the exchangers, and then at my coming I should have received mine own with usury.
28: Take therefore the talent from him, and give it unto him which hath ten talents.
29: For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath.
30: And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth
π ⏳ *LESSON INTRODUCTION* ππ
One reason for the failure of modern churches is that they become a one man affair. The pew-sitter leaves the work of evangelism, preaching, teaching and visiting to the pastor. This is not God’s order. At Pentecost, there were one hundred and twenty praying but only eleven of them could be called Pastors, that is, the eleven disciples. There were women present also.When persecution came, the Pastors stayed in Jerusalem and the laymen were the ones who went out preaching- Acts8:4. It is therefore the duty of every Church member to be active for Christ.
*TEXT REVIEW*
MATTHEW 25:14-30
"When he ascended on high, he led captivity captive and gave gift unto men". Eph 4:8. The Holy Spirit took up the parable of talents which the Lord stated in Matthew 25:14-30 and gave further details. The parable presented goods as talents to trade with Matt 25:16. Further details in Ephesians indicate that the talents (gift) are for the work of the ministry, perfecting of the saints and for edifying the body of Christ. Eph.4:12. Matt 25: 19 provides that "the Lord of the servants cometh and reckoneth with them". This means that the Lord Jesus Christ will surely return and request from every believer details of his goods/talents/gifts which He bestowed on them.
The records in Vs. 20,22 are similar because the first two servants in the content made profit with their talents and they were rewarded in the same way, the size of the talents notwithstanding. " well done, thou good and faithful servants, thou has been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of the Lord ". Vs 21 and 22. However, the record in Vs.24 is laced with excuses for non performance, he his the talent in the earth. His reward was also different-" thou wicked and slothful servant...." The punishment was severe. Vs 26-30.
.This parable points out the need for faithfulness in little. Such faithfulness would multiply the little to become great.
.This parable also identifies whoever fails to use his gift as a wicked fellow. V.26. That means, wasters of God's gift will occupy the same position in hell with other wicked fellows. PS 9:17; Matt. 25:30
.The parable also indicates that God will take the talent away from those who fail to use it. V.28
