[QUOTE]Originally posted by Omega: [QB] "I bring not peace, but a sword" refers to the fact that those who believe in the Messiah will NOT have peace, but will instead be persecuted. [i]So, if the Church is like the non-investing man[/i] No, the Church doesn't exist as an entity in this parable. Where'd you get that? Each member of the Church is one of the servants. [i]And doesn't that same parable imply that the lord in the story is prone to making 'money' by less-than-ethical means?[/i] Wha? If I give money to my stock broker, and tell him to do with it what he pleases, I'm entitled to everything that comes out of that. At least, in this analogy, because the stock broker is working for me voluntarily. If the stock broker makes nothing, he gets nothing, and I give what he was working with to someone who might do me some good with it. Where's the dishonesty? [/QB][/QUOTE]
