FIFTH SECTIONTHE FINAL JUDGMENT IN ITS LAST AND MOST UNIVERSAL FORM UPON ALL NATIONS; AND AS SEPARATIONMatthew 25:31-46(The Gospel for the 26th Sunday after Trinity.)31When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy46 angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory: 32And before him shall be gathered all [the] nations [πάντα τὰ ἔθνη]: and he shall separate [divide, ἀφοριεῖ] them one from another, as a [the, ὁ] shepherd divideth [ἀφορίζει] his [the] sheep [τὰ... read more

Matthew TRADERS FOR THE MASTER Mat_25:14 - Mat_25:30 . The parable of the Ten Virgins said nothing about their working whilst they waited. This one sets forth that side of the duties of the servants in their master’s absence, and so completes the former. It is clearly in its true historical connection here, and is closely knit to both the preceding and following context. It is a strange instance of superficial reading that it should ever have been supposed to be but another version of... read more

Matthew THE KING ON HIS JUDGMENT THRONE Mat_25:31 - Mat_25:46 . The teachings of that wonderful last day of Christ’s ministry, which have occupied so many of our pages, are closed with this tremendous picture of universal judgment. It is one to be gazed upon with silent awe, rather than to be commented on. There is fear lest, in occupying the mind in the study of the details, and trying to pierce the mystery it partly unfolds, we should forget our own individual share in it. Better to burn... read more

by Faithfulness Win Reward Matthew 25:14-30 We are not only guests, but servants, who must give an account of their stewardship. Each bond slave has been entrusted with at least one talent. The number of talents varies with our ability to manage them. The Master is not unreasonable, and never overtasks. It is by use that the power to use grows. By carefully employing our opportunities, our sphere of service may be greatly widened, so that, at the end of life, we shall be able to do twice as... read more

Serve Christ by Serving Others Matthew 25:31-46 We are called to watch the procedure of God’s moral government. This is primarily a forecast of the judgment of the nations, Matthew 25:32 . It would seem as though, in the first instance, their doom will be largely affected by their treatment of the Hebrew people, the brethren of Jesus after the flesh, Matthew 25:40 . Probably this parable is being enacted before our eyes-Spain in the Cuban war and Russia today. But the parable has a wider... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Matthew 25:1-46

"Then." This gives us the time in which the Kingdom of Heaven will be likened unto ten virgins. That Kingdom passes through many phases, but just before the coming of the King this will be its character. Note especially that the ten virgins are required to give a correct idea of the Kingdom. Again, to interpret the next parable rightly, we must remember it concerns the servants of the King. He has not committed His goods to rebels, but to His own. To apply this parable to all men is to... read more

FOUND FAITHFUL‘His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.’ Matthew 25:21 What we must learn from the saints is to persevere to the end in our struggle. The moral splendour of sanctity is wrapped up in faithfulness; that is the achievement of the saints. That may be yours. Faithfulness is so practical. I. Faithful to conscience.—The still small voice... read more

THE DISUSED TALENT‘Then he which had received the one talent came and said, Lord, I knew thee that thou art an hard man, reaping where thou hast not sown, and gathering where thou hast not strawed: and I was afraid, and went and hid thy talent in the earth; lo, there thou hast that is thine.’ Matthew 25:24-Lamentations : I. The talent put away.—Why did the man put away his ‘talent’?( a) The man took hard views of God. There is hardly an error in doctrine, or a wrongness in practice, which... read more

THE PHILOSOPHY OF LIFE‘Unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath.’ Matthew 25:29 The words of the text, if we did not know by Whom they were spoken, would perhaps suggest to us rather a sad and half-cynical maxim of the world’s philosophy than the law by which grace is bestowed by God for man’s discipline and recovery from sin. I. A law of nature.—They are plainly true, indeed, as far as this... read more

NO NEUTRALITY‘Cast ye the unprofitable servant.… gnashing of teeth.’ Matthew 25:30 The Advent warning, contained in parable of unprofitable servant, is directed against the sin of despised opportunities and a wasted life.The smallest amount entrusted to the servant, but he must render account for all that. It is ‘his lord’s money.’ So with us; influence, position, talents, wealth are entrusted property—‘Occupy till I come.’ I. The root of the offence was in the hard thoughts of God and His... read more
