The gift of faith is treasure to our Father, and of course to all who receive it.
Faith is likened to gold throughout he Word.
Our God teaches us that He refines us, but not as gold or silver, rather in the furnace of affliction. He goes on to say He does this for His own sake that we not be cut off. His reason is not our reason,.
In the parable about the servants being given talents of gold to administer while the Master was gone away, the gold is the gift of faith.
When we receive the gift of faith, it is our talent of gold. One may work to increase his talent of gold in sharing with others this faith increasing his talent by one, two, three, or many more. When the Master returns He is pleased with the servants who increased the number of talents, that is the faithful.
But the servant who buried his talent, and did nothing was considered worthless by the Master and was cast out into th e outer darkness.
So servants who do something with the faith given them will be rewarded, but those who do nothing will be cast into the outer darkness,.
Are you doing anything at all with your faith? The mere fact that ou are working in these forums tells me you are, but if you rest on receiving the gift of faith and doing nothing, well, you know the consequences of this non-action,. Even worse to encourage other to do nothing is producing more worthless servants. If you are a servant of the Mos High Go in Jesus Chrsit yo will do and not just talk a lot.
