Well Done Good and Faithful Servant - Part 6E

The nation of Israel was redeemed from Egyptian oppression with a view to being taken into the land of promise where they would realize their inheritance, being made the head over the nations, based on their CHOICE to walk in faithful obedience to the Lord’s Word−Ex. 19:5-6. However, they did not believe the Lord, rebelled against and tested Him−Ps. 78:17-22. Following this attitude that continued through the first advent of Christ, the kingdom of the heavens was taken from Israel and would be offered to the Church. The three kinds of believers who bore no fruit in the Parable of the Sower are believers who have hidden their talent in the ground and/or kept their mina put away in a handkerchief. They have NOT traded, NOT done business and ultimately have NOT gained!
