What do Oreo Smoothies, Glass Roosters, Nunu-Spinning Babies, and Luke 17:5-10 all have in common? We were somehow able to discuss all of these critical topics in under one hour!
In Luke 17:5-10, Jesus tells a parable about a servant who comes in from the field after a long day of working in the field or tending the sheep. The master of the house is then "very rude" to this poor pitiful servant! How can the master of this servant be so rude as to not even thank the servant?! Simple, because the servant only did what was expected of him.
You can't gain spiritual profit by doing the bare minimum. God lays certain ground rules which He expects everyone to adhere to because it is RIGHT to do so. However, He also gives us access to greater spiritual gifts and blessings.
How do you acquire such gifts and blessings? There are those who assert that we "already possess these gifts."
If this is true, then how do you explain the amount of labor that great saints throughout the ages have put forth in prayer, fasting, and good works who tends to have miraculous occurrences following them everywhere.
Also, how do you explain the majority of Christians who do NOT see powerful miraculous works surrounding their lives?
I believe that we have the right to ACQUIRE these gifts, but if we sow sparingly, we reap sparingly. Join us for the only time you've ever heard anyone teach on this parable Luke 17:5-10 in a way that actually makes sense.
