An End TIme Promise
This is an end time promise:
Matthew 25:24“Then he who had received the one talent came and said, ‘Lord, I knew you to be a hard man, reaping where you have not sown, and gathering where you have not scattered seed.
25‘And I was afraid, and went and hid your talent in the ground. Look, there you have what is yours.’
26“But his lord answered and said to him, ‘You wicked and lazy servant, you knew that I reap where I have not sown, and gather where I have not scattered seed.
27‘So you ought to have deposited my money with the bankers, and at my coming I would have received back my own with interest.
28‘ Therefore take the talent from him, and give it to him who has ten talents.
29‘For to everyone who has, more will be given, and he will have abundance; but from him who does not have, even what he has will be taken away.
30‘And cast the unprofitable servant into the outer darkness. There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.’
31“When the Son of Man comes in His glory, and all the holyfn angels with Him, then He will sit on the throne of His glory.
32“All the nations will be gathered before Him, and He will separate them one from another, as a shepherd divides his sheep from the goats.
33“And He will set the sheep on His right hand, but the goats on the left.
34“Then the King will say to those on His right hand, ‘Come, you blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world:
Many are afraid to take a risk....afraid to fully invest themselves in the truth of the hour and really spend themselves in responding until everyone else they know does. 'If an important leader would just say it" they imagine. Investment requires a risk. Investment in the kingdom is called FAITH.
If you are waiting until Jesus appears before you invest in His return "all in" , you will be called unfaithful. When the flood is obvious, it is too late to build an Ark.
Matthew 25:1“Then the kingdom of heaven shall be likened to ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom.
2“Now five of them were wise, and five were foolish.
3“Those who were foolish took their lamps and took no oil with them,
4“but the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.
5“But while the bridegroom was delayed, they all slumbered and slept.
6“And at midnight a cry was heard: ‘Behold, the bridegroom is coming; go out to meet him!’
7“Then all those virgins arose and trimmed their lamps.
8“And the foolish said to the wise, ‘Give us some of your oil, for our lamps are going out.’
9“But the wise answered, saying, ‘No, lest there should not be enough for us and you; but go rather to those who sell, and buy for yourselves.’
10“And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came, and those who were ready went in with him to the wedding; and the door was shut.
11“Afterward the other virgins came also, saying, ‘Lord, Lord, open to us!’
12“But he answered and said, ‘Assuredly, I say to you, I do not know you.’
13“Watch therefore, for you know neither the day nor the hour in which the Son of Man is coming.
Matthew 24:37“But as the days of Noah were, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.
38“For as in the days before the flood, they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark,
39“and did not know until the flood came and took them all away, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.
