Matthew 25:14-30
Financial Instructions from the Master
May 5, 2024
Argument: Jesus has instructions for us regarding our finances while we wait for his return.
Outline:
God has entrusted us with his property
God expects us to do something with it
There will be a day of accounting, with reward or rebuke
The rebuke is for the one afraid of offending
Jesus teaches that money is not evil, but is inherently deceptive
Money can be used well:
to advance the gospel,
alleviate suffering, and
increase our faith as we trust in God for our needs.
