Matthew 25 - Introduction

The Prepared And The Unprepared

Matthew Twenty-Five

Matthew chapter twenty-five provides Bible students with three different looks at the prepared and the unprepared. The parable of the wise and foolish virgins, the parable of the talents, and the judgment scene all picture some that were prepared and some that had every opportunity to prepare but still remained unprepared.

God has given each of us talents that we should use to His glory. If we fail to use those talents they will be taken from us. If we have anything in our hand we must give it to God so that He can bless it and bless us. This is necessary if we are to be prepared for final judgment.
