Luke 16:10-12 “He who [is] faithful in what is least is
faithful also in much; and he who is unjust in [what is] least is unjust also
in much. Therefore, if you have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon,
who will commit to your trust the true riches? And if you have not been faithful
in what is another man’s, who will give you what is your own?”
Our Lord referred
to earthly wealth and money as unrighteous mammon because it will always cause
mankind and Christians to sin.
If we rearrange
all those which we are unfaithful/unjust together, then this will read
as follows;
If you have not been faithful to the least or unrighteous
mammon or which is another man’s....
Our Lord warned us that the least important gift/thing in
our lives is money. It cannot help us to be holy nor overcome the deceptions of
the devil but causes us to sin. Moreover, it belongs to Him (which is
another man’s).
1 Tim 6:10 For the love of money is a root of all kinds
of evil, for which some have strayed from the faith in their greediness, and
pierced themselves through with many sorrows.
We are only
steward of the unrighteous mammon. He has blessed us and we must use it
according to His will. That is to meet the needs of all His various ministries
such as missions, charitable homes for children, the aged, the destitute and
the needy. Please do not hoard it up in bank, stocks, properties, etc.
otherwise you will be accused of stealing/robbing God or laying up treasures on
earth.
Similarly, if you have been faithful to His unrighteous
mammon, then God will give you the true riches (baptism of the Spirit of truth)
which is your own.
John 14:15-17 “If you love Me, keep My commandments. And
I will pray the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may abide
with you forever — the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because
it neither sees Him nor knows Him; but you know Him, for He dwells with you and
will be in you.”
When we love Him
by keeping His commandments, then we are truly His faithful servants and He
will baptize us with the Spirit of truth who will abide in us. He will then
guide us into all truth to set us free from bondages and to overcome the
deceptions of the devil. He will also tell/show us our future and teach us
endtime prophecies.
John 16.13 “However,
when He, the Spirit of truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth; for
He will not speak on His own authority, but whatever He hears He will speak;
and He will tell you things to come.”
Luke 11:13 “If you then, being evil, know how to give
good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give the
Holy Spirit to those who ask Him!”
When we ask our
Lord for the baptism of the Holy Spirit instead of worldly blessings,
prosperity, happiness, success, etc. He will baptize us with the spirit of
truth if we love Him by keeping His words.
Mat 24:45-46 “Who then is a faithful and wise servant,
whom his master made ruler over his household, to give them food in due season?
Blessed is that servant whom his master, when he comes, will find so doing.”
When our Lord has
blessed us with money/ wealth (unrighteous Mammon), as faithful servants, we
must send them to feed and help our fellow brethren in the mission fields, charitable
homes, etc. But when He has baptized with His Spirit of truth, we must teach
our brethren the truth in order to help them to be set free from carnality and
worldliness, and also the understanding of His words including endtime
prophecies.
