"Eyes on the Prize" - Matthew 25:1-13 - (November 5, 2023 - All Saint's Day - Pentecost 23)
Manage episode 382311471 series 2422732
Even for the most devout Christian, today’s parable and the next three makes us feel insecure, fear, or perhaps doubt. They make us take account of our faith and our actions, our sincerity, our devotedness to follow Jesus. Both Jesus’ and Matthew’s intent, however, is to prepare themselves for Judgment Day with vibrant faith which fuels their daily lives and relationships with others. You, and only you, are held accountable to be faithful both in your confession of Christ as your Savior, and in leading a life of love and mercy, fueled by that faith.
These next three parables are a call to be prepared and to not let your guard down in a world that would swallow you, and your faith, whole. It is Christ who overcomes fear and doubt and you must keep your eyes and live your lives on Him. He is the prize.
