So Take The Talent “Since he did nothing with his one talent, even that one is to be taken from him and given to the more productive partner. For to everyone who has, will more be given and he will have abundance, but from him who has not, even what he has will be taken away”. What does this mean for us? One who is given a gift of preaching or teaching is given it so others may profit from it. If one doe not use this gift, he will lose it. But one who uses the gift diligently will gain even more of the gift in abundance, even as he inactive recipient will lose what he has received. The penalty is not, however, limited to this. The punishment in addition is intolerable and the sentence is filled with heavy accusation.
