Today’s GospeL Verses ~ Luke 19:11-28
11 - While the crowd of people were listening to these things, Jesus went on to tell a parable, because He was near Jerusalem, and they thought that the kingdom of God was going to appear immediately.12 He said to them (a parable) “A nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom, and then to return. 13 Calling ten of his servants, he gave them ten talents/coins, and told them, ‘Engage in business until I come.’ 14 But his citizens hated him and sent a delegation after him, saying, ‘We don’t want this man to reign over us.’ 15 When he returned, having received the kingdom, he sent for the ones to whom he had given the coins, that he might know what they had gained in doing business. 16 The first came, saying, ‘Lord, your coin has made ten coins more.’ 17 And he said to him, ‘Well done, good servant! Because you have been faithful in a little, you shall have reign [exousia - delegated empowerment operating in a designated jurisdiction] over ten cities.’ 18 And the second came, saying, ‘Lord, your coin has made five coins.’ 19 And he said to him, ‘You shall be over five cities.’ 20 Then another came, saying, ‘Lord, here is the talent you gave me. I kept it laid away in a handkerchief, 21 for I was afraid of you, because you are a harsh man. You take up what you didn’t place, and reap what you didn’t sow.’ 22 And the businessman said to him, ‘I will judge you by your own words, you troublesome [ponéros - toilsome, bad] worker, you knew I’m a harsh (harsh reality) man, taking what I didn’t place and reaping what I didn’t sow? 23 Why then didn’t you not put the talent to usury (use) and at my coming, I might have collected it with interest?’ 24 And he said to those who were nearby, ‘Take the coin from him, and give it to the one who has the ten.’ 25 And they said, ‘But lord, he has ten already!’ 26 ‘I tell you that to everyone who has, more will be given. But from the one who hasn’t, even what they think they have will be taken away. 27 But as for these enemies of mine, who don’t want me to reign over them, bring them here and slay them before me.’” (Daniel 7:9 - “And the ancient of days took his seat” ..“All of life is a stage” - Shakespeare. (Mt.13:30 gathering of tares, is Rev.16:13-16, the gathering to Armageddon battle.)
28 And when he had said these things, Jesus went on ahead, going up to Jerusalem.

~ Galatians 2:1-5 ~
1 - Then after fourteen years I (Paul) went up again to Jerusalem with Barnabas, taking Titus along with us. 2 I went up because of a revelation and set before them (though privately before those who have been deemed influential) the gospel that I proclaim among the Gentiles. This was in order to be sure I was not running or had not run in vain. 3 But even Titus, who was with me, was not forced to be circumcised, though he was a Greek (thus never circumcised). 4 False brothers secretly came in to spy out our freedom we have in Christ Jesus, so they might bring us into slavery - 5 to them we did not yield in submission even for a moment. So the truth of the gospel (glad tidings) might be preserved for you.
