Shrewd Stewardship

Jul 28, 2024    Pastor Zach Terry

Several times in the Gospels, Jesus uses bad examples to teach

good lessons.

• He compares His return to the coming of a thief in the night in Matthew 24.

• He commands His followers to be wise as serpents in Matthew 10.

• He likened God to an unjust, unbelieving judge in Luke 18 who was swayed by a

widow's persistent request.

Today’s text is the penultimate case where Jesus uses a bad example to teach a good

lesson.
