would be in hands of those who were
not capable ofhandling the same. The
result then is that the property is
not and cannot be properly handled.
There would .be talents going to
waste that Go expects to pay di
vidends. For the many talented men
the incentive to exert it, to the qtf
most is useless as what, we might
produce would be placed in incapable
Irands under the communist regime;.
All men are born with talents. No
two are endojred with the same tal
ents. Some men are capable of snak
ing and managing millions, others
are not capable of ever accumulating
anything. God expects these talents
which are his investments in this
world to pay dividends, and any rule
that hinders the operating of any tal
ents is working against the will and
plans of Almighty iGod. In exercis
ing our talents. We are to keep in
sight all the time the fact that we
are only God’s stewards and in suc
cessfully accummulating and handling
a portion we are either exercising
those talents to the glory of God or
to our own condemnation. So any so
ciety that would hinder a free use
ofg God given talents is a curse to
any one. And will have tp be, answer
ed at the great reckoning day. What
is coveteousness. It is the inordinate
desire to lust after, to indulge in
nordinate desire. Coveteossness then
is if carried out is interfering with
God's plans. If .we are a one-talent
man and covet what the five-talent
man has we are guilty of violating
one of the ten commandments. If a
man has made a better mark in his
life than we have we should not look
upon him to that that extent that we
want what he has. Many are the
times when the live talent man will
not do the work of a five talent and
only accomplish the work of a one
talent man be is guilty of the sin of
omission. It is his duty to make his
five talents pay for fiive talent divi
dends.
Different Ways of Robbing
Many are the times that we rob
without being conscious of a wrong
act. When a careless word spoken
against a fellow-man falsely will
many times make a wound that will
never be entirely healed. A man-s
character many times will be
blackened and weakened iby an inno
cent and carelessly spoken word,
When we are prone to speak evil of
our brother lets weigh well the re
sults that these words may have
When we blacken a man's name we
are injuring that which is 'God given
When God given attributes are injur
ed or destroyed .by man he (that
man) is treading upon dangerous
ground.. When we have defamed
man we may have robbed one of the
enjoyments to the fullest of life, and
give him a blow whose hurt will fol
low him to his grave. We do not
many times at first though realize
the gravity of a word of abuse
criticism. Miany times we could bring
an accusation on a man "that while it
may be true that if true will drag a
man lower down, when the accusing
will not help him any. How much bet
ter when we see a .man at fault
would be to lend him a helping hand
or a kind word instead of words of
blame and .a push downward. What
was Christ’s way? A good example
of this is the incident that took
place between Jesus and the woman
at the well. What did Christ say to
this guilty woman? Did he condemn
her and push her on down? He did
not. He "told her to go her way and
sin no more. If we have nothing good
to say of a brother lets take the sure
route of being right and-if we can't

was anxious to talk with Jesus. He
was impressed with the idea that
Jesus could show him the way to
eternal life.
Jesus in unmistakable terms laid
down the terms to him on which he
might obtain salvation. This man
was a man of great wealth and would
not agree to part with that which
was in the way of eternal life. The
young man went away sorrowful.
Here is a picture that is the case of
many a poor human. They choose to
cling to the things of the world and
lose the chance of obtaniing eternal
life. Here then is another form of
stealing when we refuse to do God's
biddings and let the things of this
world keep us away from God we are
robbing ourselves of the most valua
ble heritage that is possible for any
human can possess. This heritage has
been prepared for us since time .be
gan. Then why should we rob our
selves ?
There is a diderence in robbing
ourselves and 'God, and anyone . else.
If we rob some one of our fellow
creatures, we may escape the penalty
of it. If we roib ourselves or 'God, We
will always pay the penalty. When
we xob ourselves we pay the great
est .price possible to be exacted,
namely the gaining admission to
eternal life.
View this question of robbing pr
stealing from every angle. Man
must in some way suffer for indulg
ing in it in any way. The greatest
price to be paid is many times, by
socalled chirstians. The offense being
sucj]!, that it is not always looked up
on as being wrong. .TuTu^mI
Restoring That Which Has Been!
Taken from Others
Ip Luke 19:1-10 we have the story
of the man who had robbed bis fel
low man and how after falling under;
the spell of conviction of his wrongs
be prepares to make restitution for
all that he had taken from his fellow
man unlawfully. Like Zaccheus, we
may rob people and at the same time
it will have the appearance of being
legal and lawful. While at the same
time it may be questionable; This
proves to us that when the power of
God gets a hold on a man he is will
ing to caknowledge his sins tho they
may have the appearance of being
legal and lawful. Zaccheus knew
his heart that 'he was dishonest,
There came into his life a longing to
be released from the .bondage which
he was living. He was robbing his
fellow man. He wanted to get right
with God and man.
He was willing to pay the price
and showed his willingness to ' do
right by odering to restore fourfold
anything that he had taken unlaw
fully from any .man. This rettitution
was the hungering of the heart for
things that satisfy. Zacchaeus felt
that now was the time and went and
climbed up into the sycamore tree to
be sure that he might see the Lord,
He seemed to have felt that today
was the crisis in his life and if he
could not get things settled this
very day he might be too late.
The marvelous change in the life of
Zacchaeus cannot be accounted for in
any other way than that the Lord
had come into his life. When he re
ceived Christ in his life he turned
over a new leaf with Zacchaeus it was
case of robbing himself and his
fellow man. He was robbing himself
of a title to eternal life and his fel
low man by extortion. He learned the
price of'restoration .'and paid "it’ up
to the last farthing.'

about thirty cents in our money.
This had to be paid half-sheckles. In
the country there was in circulation,
Persian, Tyron, Syrian, Egyptian,
and Grecian money. So we see it must
have been quite a task for the money
changers to exchange the temple’s
dues from all these different curren
cies into half-shekels. The annual
temple dues .were said to have .been
in the neighborhood' 1 of $37&,000. The
money changers profit's amounted to
about $40,000. When people came in
with their foreign plhces to the tem
ple for the money to ibe changed there
was another charge. There was much
arguing and disputing. Now we can
realize what the Lord meant when he
said that they had. made the Lord's
house a place of traffic. They (were
driving to the house of God fraud
arguments, etc. So they were really
robbing the temple of its religious
significance.
The Parable of the Vineyard
The parable of the vineyard does
not mention money. Primarily it
means the Jewish people 'God had
chosen Israel a land of glory, but Is
rael had acted treason tow^d God
and had gone so far, as to 'kill the
pTophets of Pod, and finally Israel
put ;to death the Son of God- When
we bliberately shut God out of our
lives we have done what these wicked
husbandman did. We have refused to
give God what he has a right to ex
pect from us as his own creation.
