Bible Question: Is this verse referring to Christians |
Bible Answer: Jesus' answer to Peter's question by asking a question, "Who is the faithful and wise manager?" He is pointing out that all people will be held responsible for their actions (what they believe). Paul expressed this same idea in: Rom 2:6 God "will give to each person according to what he has done." 7To those who by persistence in doing good seek glory, honor and immortality, he will give eternal life. 8But for those who are self-seeking and who reject the truth and follow evil, there will be wrath and anger. philemcc |
