"You Can No Longer Be Steward"

Luke 16:1-13

In the parable of the unjust steward, God is the rich man and we are His stewards. He has entrusted us with many of His possessions and He expects us to be wise and generous in what we do with His belongings. I Cor. 4:2 says, "It is required in stewards that a man be found faithful." And we will give an account of our stewardship. In the parable, the unjust steward lowered the bill of His lord’s creditors. In like manner, many "unjust" preachers have lowered God’s standards in His Word. They, like all of us, will give an account of what they have done. The time is coming when all of us will no longer be stewards.

Death

Second coming

Look at what Jesus said in Matthew 24:42-51. When He comes again, will you be a blessed servant or a cursed servant? If you really want to go to Heaven, you will prepare now for that glorious eternity! You will obey the commandments of the Lord!
