“What he thought, was most valuable, turned out to be, the most useless”
Monday, July 2, 2012
Jesus said: Suppose a man had 10 talents, and he sold, one of those talents, thinking, that he could make even more, than what he already had. But upon selling the one talent, he forfeited the most precious of them all. Therefore, when he went to bargain, with the dealers, they saw, that his 9 talents, were empty, of value. And when they asked him: where, was the first talent? He said to them, I sold it, but look here, I have 9 more. But they replied, “we have no need of these 9. We needed the one talent that you sold, in order to make a profit. So the man went away, unhappy, sad. For, he sought to compromise, one of his talents, to gain nothing, in return. What he thought, was most valuable, turned out to be, the most useless.
Give all - that one has, in order to buy ‘heavenly treasure’.
And that is the way that it is, with ‘the spirit of the World’: for ‘the spirit of the World’ compromises; and ‘the spirit of the World’ takes; and ‘the spirit of the World’ withholds - all of the gifts, or talents, from, their maker. The man, who refused to give – all, of his talents, ended up with nothing in return, because he had poor judgement. He thought, what was of value, would be more valuable to others. But what he saw, that was ‘of great importance’, was ‘of less importance’ to others. It is important, to give, all - not to compromise, by giving one; but, to give all - that one has, in order to buy ‘heavenly treasure’.
Those, who break one, of My Commandments… will receive less, in return
And this is the point, of the parable: The man, with the 10 talents, represents: all those, who have the 10 Commandments written - on their hearts. And the selling of the one talent, to buy more, with it, represents those, who ‘sell-out’, to ‘the spirit of the World’, expecting, to receive: more, back. For those, who sell, one of My Commandments – that is, for those, who break one, of My Commandments, because of the choice to compromise: well they will receive less, in return - for ‘the spirit of the World’ can never fill, nor satisfy. And there are those who would seek, to indulge, in ‘the spirit of the World’ and! – and keep My 10 Commandments at the same time. This is impossible. “Christians”, cannot compromise: the Truth, expecting to receive ‘good spiritual rewards’.
“christians” have chosen to compromise: what is extremely important, for what is useless
I was listening to your conversation My children, about how “dismal and bleak” the state of the World is in. And I am explaining to you through this parable, how, this is so. Because “christians” have chosen to compromise: what is extremely important, for what is useless - in directing them to Heaven. Many people fall into this category My children – because they believe compromise, is the solution, and that they are being “good christians” if they do. But what in fact they are listening to, is ‘the spirit of the antichrist’, for there is no “compromise” in ‘True Christianity’. |
