Parable of the Talents
Positive Christianity Series Episode #112
GOD Almighty is the Creator of the Highest Heavens, lower heavens, the universe, the earth, humanity, creation, and everything. GOD Almighty is the Maker and LORD of everything. This wisdom allows us to have humility to know that we can not practice idol worship or self worship that is idolatry. We learn that GOD Almighty creates each individual to have talents even before they are in the womb. We learn that GOD Almighty knows how each individual will use or not use their talents even before they are born. This describes that GOD Almighty is all knowing among other qualities that the human mind can not understand. GOD Almighty also gives each individual the autonomy and choice to decide if they want to worship GOD Almighty with their virtues, talents, time, and resources or not. We know that GOD Almighty does not force anyone to worship by force describing the beauty of GOD Almighty.
GOD Almighty gives each individual the choice to grow, learn, and improve in the worship of GOD Almighty so that their virtues can keep increasing or if they decide to practice sin and idol worship and have their virtues removed and lead to vices and stagnation. This wisdom describes why we can not practice idol worship or self-worship because instead we choose to worship GOD Almighty with the abundance of our virtues and talents. The righteous examples in the Sacred Scriptures describe individuals that worship GOD Almighty above everything and keep improving and get better each day by having fidelity to GOD Almighty above everything.
"Now after a long time the master of those servants came and settled accounts with them. And he who had received the five talents came forward, bringing five talents more, saying, 'Master, you delivered to me five talents, here I have made five talents more.' His master said to him, 'Well done, good and faithful servant. You have been faithful over a little; I will set you over much. Enter into the joy of your master.' And he who had the two talents came forward, saying, 'Master, you delivered to me two talents; here I have made two talents more.' His master said to him, 'Well done, good and faithful servant. You have been faithful over a little; I will set you over much. Enter into the joy of your master.'"- Matthew 25: 19-24
We learn that there are righteous individuals in the Sacred Scriptures that decide to worship GOD Almighty with their talents, virtues, time, and resources, and they abound. We learn about Abraham and Sarah, Moses, and David that decide to prioritize the worship of GOD Almighty, King Jesus Christ, and the Spirit of Truth above everything and persevere with favor, blessings, goodness, and abundance of virtues. We learn that David was initially a shepherd who took his position of authority with responsibility and kept improving. David kept learning and did not define himself by his professions and rather defined himself by the fidelity to GOD Almighty. David was not only a shepherd, but also a musician, singer, Psalm writer, warrior, armor bearer, and king. We know that David utilized his virtues for the worship of GOD Almighty and kept increasing in favor and blessings so much so that Israel grew to a level that had never been seen in the past because of the zeal and fidelity of David for GOD Almighty.
We learn that in the New Testament that while Paul was a Pharisee, he was able to see King Jesus Christ in eternal and infinite splendor, glory, and light that blinded Paul. We learn that Paul repented of Phariseeism and decided to worship GOD Almighty by accepting and confessing King Jesus Christ with sincerity of heart. Paul renounced Phariseeism in favor of preaching King Jesus Christ Eternal LORD and Savior and obeyed the commandments of Moses. Paul grew in virtues while leaving behind the vices that had caused him to be an insolent opponent of the Church of King Jesus Christ. Paul became an apostle, preacher, writer, and encourager of the Church of King Jesus Christ being able to preach in Israel and the nations. Because of Paul's preaching, individuals from Israel and the nations converted to Christianity. We learn that this wisdom describes the manner that we keep improving in the worship of GOD Almighty obeying the commandments of Moses and accepting and confessing King Jesus Christ Eternal LORD and Savior. We learn that we can not practice sin and vices because we have responsibility and accountability to the Creator of everything, GOD Almighty.
