Luke 16:11
"If therefore ye have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon,
Who will commit to your trust the true riches?"
We are all stewards, but how much do we waste! Well; might our Master deprive us of our position and trust! The unjust steward used his opportunity to get himself in with the tenants at the landowner’s cost. He had secured for himself a welcome to their homes, when his actions came to light he was dismissed. Christ did not commend his fraud, but pointed out that the children of this world are mainly for themselves when it comes to their future and prepare for its contingencies. If sinners make a wrong use of money to provide for the future, how much more should Christians make a right use of it. Doing so in the acts of good works, so when we die we may be welcomed to the eternal home by those whom they have benefited!
Money is described as unrighteous Mammon, the name of the heathen god of wealth. It is so often associated with cheating. Money is "the least" and "not that which is our own," but God’s, to be used by us as His servants and at His direction,
Amen!
