Contented Faithful Servant
Series Jesus Through Luke's Eyes
Many questions occupy people's minds. One major question has to do with the future judgement of God. Yet our starting point should be that the judgement of God is coming. The main question then becomes, "What will you personally do in the meantime?" In Jesus' parable of the talents, this is the main issue. What will you do while you wait for the certain return of the King? You need to plan for your future way beyond this world. Some people will view God as unreasonable and will therefore not live faithfuly, joyfully and productively. All of the excuses such people make will just be noise on judgement day. But the faithful servant has his heart on pleasing his Master. he is therefore productive. The faithful servant, unlike the fake servant, finds Jesus' rule pleasant. The faithful servant is content. The fake servant has a heart that is hostile toward God and he will meet with God's hostility. Now is the time to come humbly to the King in repentance.
