Bible Question: Maybe you can help me out again. I was told to read the " talents gospel ", where is it? Maybe she was talking about a parable in a gospel. Can you help? |
Bible Answer: This is what I like to refer to as Jesus' "farewell sermon" -that He was preparing to go to be crucified, and of all things He should say, these are what He wanted us to remember as His final words. That is, these 3 parables that are in the 25th chapter of Matthew. 1)Now it should be our primary concern to prepare for Christ’s coming, and He relates this with the parable of the virgins, v. 1-13. 2) That we may be ready to give our account to Him; and this is shown in the parable of the talents, v. 14–30 3) That we may then be ready to receive our final sentence, and that it may be to eternal life; and this is shown in the parable of the sheep and the goats (v. 31–46). These are things of careful consideration, and the cause of everlasting concern to every one of us. God Bless, Tim |
