In this parable, a man was traveling to a far country, like Jesus came into the world and was gone back to heaven. Sinners meet Jesus at the Cross here on earth for your salvation and when you believe, He gives you salvation and the Holy Spirit and you now have a connecting line to the heavenly. He gives each believer talents, which are the Lord’s goods. Some have more gifts than others, but it is not the number of talents or goods given to you that counts. What matters is your faithfulness. Now every man is supposed to use the talent God gave to them, for his heavenly kingdom. What are you doing with that which has been given to you?

Soon the Master will be back from his journey.

Know what work that God has trusted into your care and be thou faithful; for the hour has come and you must give an account.

Who do you work to please, man or God, Your G.O. or God, Your pastor or God, Your spouse or God, Your children or God and or Your parents or God?

He is about to come back, but no one knows the day or the hour and it all calls for faithfulness, that when He comes the faithful servant will be found doing the Master’s business faithfully. Now what is the Master’s work for which He gave us talents.

Some are working hard and are bearing fruits, because they abide in him. No church leader gave you talents, so if you are working to please you denominational heads you are as good as bury the talents God gave you in the ground; same as saying (For I feared thee, because thou art an austere man: thou takest up that thou latest not down, and reapest that thou didst not sow. The Lord said, “Cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. But to the good servants the Lord said, “Well done, good and faithful servant.” That is what you pray to hear from the Lord based on what you have done with the goods or talents God gave you on earth now. Time is short, an account must be given.

1st Cor. 15: 50-58

The ten virgins were likened to the kingdom of heaven, they all took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom. Like today every Christian is getting ready and expecting the translation.

The parable said, they were virgins, holy, pure, chaste, undefiled. But five were wise and five were foolish. So one can be a virgin, holy, pure but 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. That was wisdom, because you do not know what day or hour when the bridegroom shall return, enduring faith, will help you store and carry enough oil with your vessel; as you wait.

2nd Tim. 3: 1-17

The cry was made at midnight and all the virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps. The foolish discovered they were out of oil and their lamp needed oil. But the wise told them they could not give out their oil (Holy Ghost is not shared that way), but told them to go and buy from those that sold.

Who woke the ten virgins; those must have been awake all night and full of oil (the elect, the bride proper); who were the sellers of the oil (faithful preachers of the word of God); what kind of sleep was that; what kind of preparations did the virgins make; why was one group wise and what made them wise. Today, the wise and those that gave the cry and the sellers are all busy at their gospel duty posts. And when the foolish went to buy oil, the bridegroom came and those that were ready went into the marriage and the door was shut. The foolish have been left behind for the great tribulation. Where will you be? How much oil do you have? It will be sudden, as a thief in the night.

Luke 21:36, “Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.”

Remember the song, “Hold to God’s unchanging Hand.”

He likened the kingdom of heaven unto a man who sowed good in his field: But while men slept, the enemy came and sowed tares among the good seeds (wheat), and went his way.

As the seeds grew the servants of the good man (God), saw tares among the good seeds and told the Master. He told them the enemy hath done this. The servants desired of the Master if they should weed out the tare. He said no, else in doing that you mistakenly uproot the wheat or good seed also. Let them both grow together until harvest time, (Wisdom of God, for by their fruits ye shall know them and harvest correctly).

The enemy that sowed the tares is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers or harvesters are the angels

As the tares are gathered together in bundles and burned in the fire; so shall it be in the end of this world. The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all that offend, and them which do iniquity (Galatians 5:19-21), (Rom. 1:18-32). And cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.

After this God will pour sunshine and rain to get the good seed to perfect maturity. Then shall the righteous shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.

Remember the song, “What a day that will be.”

He took a far journey and before he did, he called his servants and gave them each their work. Nothing only that He gave them authority. That is power for each to execute their work. Today is a clear fact of what the parable was all about. Jesus Christ the Master came and died on the Cross to pay for the penalty of our sins and to give us opportunity at eternal life. Then when he rose from the dead and spent some time with his disciples, he gave them the work and the authority; ( Mark 16:15-17, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature, (That is the work); He that believeth shall be saved and he that believeth not shall be damned. This is the work.) And these signs shall follow them that believe, In my name they shall cast out devils. In my name is the Authority.

Mattas. 24: 42-51

Now we are approaching the moment of accountability. Prepare to meet thy God, (Amos 4:12). God is soon to come back from a long journey and seeks the faithful servants. How do you measure up?

Mark 13:37, “And what I say unto you I say unto all, Watch.”

Remember the song, “Softly and Tenderly.”

2-asis kor. 7:9-10

The younger son asked his Father to give him his own portion of the inheritance, (at least he asked for it as if it were an entitlement. Today many children even kill their parents to get a hold of the inheritance) The Father gave him his inheritance.

And not many days after, the younger son gathered all his portion of the inheritance and left for a far country.

And there he wasted all his inheritance with riotous living. Soon there arose a mighty famine in that land; and he began to be in want. At the end of the age there will come famine and many people will begin to be in want. This is when to be sure your inheritance is anchored in heaven where there is no famine and your treasures are safe and you will never suffer any want.

He began to be hungry, and destitute. Looking for both a job, shelter and food; he joined himself to a citizen of that country to help him feed his swine. He was dead hungry and was willing to eat the husks meant for the swine but no man was willing to give him.

Then he came to himself, and said, “How many hired servants of my father’s have bread enough and to spare, and I perish with hunger. I will arise and go to my father, and will say unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and before thee, And am no more worthy to be called thy son: make me as one of thy hired servants.” And he arose, and came to his father. (That was the remorse of the heart and acknowledgment of sin that leads to repentance in any sincere one).

Psalmė 51: 1-19

When a sinner decides to walk back to God he or she has a kind of repentant steps that only the Father can see. But when he was yet a great way off, his father saw him, noticed the spiritual step and had compassion, and ran, and fell on his neck and kissed him. Unconditional love of the Father.

The son made his confession of sin to the Father. The Father asked his servants to bring the best robe, ring and shoes and put on him; kill the fattest calf, and let us eat and be merry (for a sinner has come home); For this my son was dead, and is alive again; he was lost, and is found.

The elder brother on his way home heard of much jubilation, and inquired what had happened. He was told all that the father had done for his younger brother and he was offended. Because he kept his own inheritance , stayed with their father, and the younger one took his own inheritance and wasted it and is now back, welcomed and entertained.

He accused the father of never giving him anything to celebrate with his friends.

Now remember the parable of the lost sheep. The Lord left the saved ninety and nine to go and seek for the lost one and when he found the sheep he carried it on his neck, like kissing the neck (by kissing the neck of the lost). The Jews are like the first born and the gentiles are like the second and prodigal son. Repentance means a lot to God and our Lord Jesus Christ.

Thus we know that the gentile church and the Jewish church will not be here at the same time when Jesus comes to deliver the Jews at Armageddon. The gentile church should get out of the way when the two prophets begin to minister and confront the beast (anti-Christ). The fig tree which represents Israel, when it appears we know the rapture is near. This parable / prophecy is over 2000 years, which tells us something about the gentile time running out.

The gentile time has already run out and we are in a transition. The Lord will be ministering to individuals for the translation. He will give a cry from heaven, the dead in the grave who are dead in Christ will hear it and those who are alive and remain, but the unfaithful ones will not hear the cry of the Lord and will be left behind. You don’t want to be left behind for the man of sin will be in command of the earth for a short bloody time. The gentile time will have been over.

All these confirm the parable of the fig tree that when it buds and blossoms; you know that it is near even at the door. Here the Lord was referring to the Millenium time. But before that will be the translation of the church and the great tribulation. Remember that when the last three and one half years started the translation was already gone. The only sign is watch and pray and be ye sober and ready any moment it would happen.

Heb. 11: 32–40

Now you can by your imagination enlarge the picture that the Lord painted of Lazarus. Firstly, he was a helpless beggar that had to be laid at this gate. The rich man saw him day in and out, but never considered taking him for treatment, to feed him or even to wash him clean, or invite him into his house. That was his time on earth to do the works of God. But he never cared to stop or help in any way. Flies must have been perching on Lazarus’ sores. Even the dogs leaked his sore. What a life to live on earth.

And one day Lazarus died, and was carried by the angel into Abraham’s bosom. For God to send angels it meant that Lazarus in all his challenges on earth was born again and was faithful and endured till the end, (Matt. 24:13). What a saint, was Lazarus, he overcame the world and all his trials, amen. Heaven is real. What about you?

20: 1-15

Suddenly the rich man died and none of his wealth was buried with him so he could carry it to the next destination. Hell does not accept luggages and there is only entrance into hell and no exit and Jesus Christ has the keys of hell and death.

In hell the rich man was in torment, and lifting up his eyes seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom, no more sore, full of joy and peace and needed nothing. But the rich man needed water because he was thirsty; but there was none. He begged Abraham if Lazarus could dip his finger in water and drop to him to cool his tongue. But there was a gulf between them. Brother that was only the start of torment. Abraham reminded him of his lost opportunity on earth. He requested to go and warn his brothers on earth not to end up in hell, but it was too late for him. Abraham assured him that there were preachers out there as today if only the people would listen, take heed and repent. Hell is real. What about you?

Rev. 20:15, “And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.”
