  • PER135 Parable of the Two Servants

    This article discusses the parable of the two servants told by Jesus, illustrating what is expected of the faithful and the severe judgment of the unfaithful. It addresses responsibilities proportionate to knowledge of God, also mentioning the parables of the talents and the minas.

    Matthew 24.45-51 (King James Version) :
    Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them meat in due season?Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing.Verily I say unto you, That he shall make him ruler over all his goods.But and if that evil servant shall say in his heart, My lord delayeth his coming;And shall begin to smite his fellowservants, and to eat and drink with the drunken;The lord of that servant shall come in a day when he looketh not for him, and in an hour that he is not aware of,And shall cut him asunder, and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

  • PER304 Parable of the Faithful Servant

    This article examines the parable of the faithful servant, stressing the importance of faithfulness and vigilance while awaiting the Lord's return, which is certain but unpredictable.

    Luke 21.25-28 (King James Version) :
    And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring;Men’s hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.

  • PER305 Parable of the Ten Virgins

    The parable of the ten young women teaches the importance of spiritual preparation for the Lord's return, illustrating two possible outcomes: being ready and entering with the Bridegroom, or arriving too late and finding the door shut.

    Matthew 25.1-13 (King James Version) :
    Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom.And five of them were wise, and five were foolish.They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them:But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept.And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him.Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps.And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out.But the wise answered, saying, Not so; lest there be not enough for us and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves.And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut.Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us.But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not.Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh.
