Passion Tuesday (PASSION WEEK)

Published: April 4, 2023, 3 a.m.

When someone is dying, and they know their days are numbered, their words, the last things they choose to speak, the last wisdom they are intentional about sharing, their loved ones deem their words as priceless.

I had the pleasure of experiencing that when my dad passed, and in the midst of his talking, it dawned on me, “you should be recording this,” so I did.  I am so glad the last words and the last things Jesus’ was intentional about doing and saying on His way to the cross were recorded and that we all have access to the priceless gem of the words and teachings of Jesus.

The first of the four parables Jesus was intentional about conveying is in Matthew 24:45-51, and it reads.

45 “Who then is the faithful and wise servant, whom the master has put in charge of the servants in his household to give them their food at the proper time? 46 It will be good for that servant whose master finds him doing so when he returns. 47 Truly I tell you, he will put him in charge of all his possessions. 48 But suppose that servant is wicked and says to himself, ‘My master is staying away a long time,’ 49 and he then begins to beat his fellow servants and to eat and drink with drunkards. 50 The master of that servant will come on a day when he does not expect him and at an hour he is not aware of. 51 He will cut him to pieces and assign him a place with the hypocrites, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

The lesson of this parable is about accountability and how we as servants will have to give an account to our master for how we conducted our lives here on earth.  We like to proclaim that we are independent and don’t have to report to anyone.  I told you all a while ago that independence is an illusion,  and is never mentioned in the Bible.
