1Ⅱ Matthew 25:14-30 reveals that we must be faithful in service in the Lord’s gifts to make a profit for Him so that we may enter into the joy of the Lord in the coming kingdom:
2A The Lord likened Himself to a man going abroad (into the heavens) and delivering to his slaves his possessions; his possessions signifies the church (Eph. 1:18) with all the believers, who constitute God’s household (Matt. 24:45).
7a The natural strength and ability become useful in resurrection for our service to the Lord in order to make us both pillars and pillar builders for the fulfilling of God’s eternal purpose — 1 Cor. 15:10, 58; cf. 2 Cor. 6:1-2; 1 Kings 7:13-22 with footnotes; Eph. 4:8, 11-12, 16; Gal. 2:9; Rev. 3:12.
8b Moses, Peter, and Paul’s natural ability passed through the cross and came up in resurrection to be used by the Lord for the building up of His Body — Acts 7:22-36; Luke 22:32-33; 1 Pet. 5:5-6; Acts 22:3; Phil. 3:5-8, 14; Gal. 2:20; 2 Cor. 4:10-12; 2 Tim. 2:11.
