The following thoughts came to me whilst reading “The Parable of the Unjust Steward” on the 16th March 2021.

I accept people need to make their own choice with what they know about the vaccine. My oldest brother and sister are having it but they do not know God so do not trust in God. My opinion is having a jab to go on holiday in the past is quite a different thing from being told today for example no jab no job, and I don’t like what I have learned about the jab which I think is poison and has its roots in murder. The media is censoring the Truth.
The mark of the beast comes to mind. We might be grooming the next generation that has to face the mark of the beast and we will be held accountable for not preparing them by teaching them and neglecting to lead by example. As Christians we are accountable for teaching the young, they are entrusted to us by God. We are teaching our young ones it is OK and normal to allow something to be put in you to be allowed to enter somewhere or fly etc. They will grow up thinking it is normal. We are to be in the world but not part of it and to trust in Him. If I have to sacrifice not being able to take part in the the world to not be apart of this grooming and this murder of the young that is happening then that is fine, because it will be just a little bit easier when I answer to the Lord. I believe God is in control, that remains true.
With all that being said. Let’s start with some comparisons.
Luke 16:1 He also said to His disciples: “There was a certain rich man who had a steward, and an accusation was brought to him that this man was wasting his goods. 2 So he called him and said to him, ‘What is this I hear about you? Give an account of your stewardship, for you can no longer be steward.’
In this parable, the steward has been unfaithful to his master, he has been dishonest and self serving with what the master has given him. That is what the fallen world does to us though, so the steward was conforming with the world. But let us compare this to Job. For Job his accuser was satan the great deceiver and father of all lies, and Job was also removed from his stewardship to give account. Job was not guilty. Job was honest and served God diligently. By God’s righteousness Job did not let the fallen world get the better of him.
In Mathew 6:31 Jesus said. “Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ God is good to us, yet none of us deserve anything good from God. Yet we can have a tendency to complain and think we have a right to something better. We are ungrateful and blind to what God gives us. But if we look at Job, he loved the children God gave him and protected them by being diligent in making sacrifices to the Lord – on their behalf in case they might have sinned. When Job began to suffer he asked God why but he was not ungrateful. By doing so he actually sought God and received a blessing. God wants us to get on our knees and seek Him, to develop a relationship with Him, even if we do so by complaining. Job’s own righteousness could not protect him from satans torment. Job was inflicted with such severity of viruses and disease that even today, in these days with Covid 19 all around us, we still cannot imagine his suffering. Job could no longer do anything. He was incapable, and an outcast. People did not want to go near him and cursed him. Through the mouth of his friends the world accused him and tried to tell him what to do. But Job didn’t look to the world for answers, he did not seek for mans answers, he didn’t turn to witchcraft for healing, instead he defended the righteousness of God and sought God for the answers. Because of this, God raised up Job and restored him, entrusting him with twice as much as before and provided for him in abundance.
In comparison. Jesus was accused and put to death by Crucifixion, but the Father found Him to be completely innocent and actually could only find praise for Him. When Jesus faced the Father He was found to have been spotless, blameless, and He had been the perfect steward with all that the Father had given Him and what the Father gave Him is us! His children. Jesus came to save us from this fallen sinful world, He bled and died for us and washed away our sins using His own blood. Jesus did not conform with this world but died and was resurrected within it … and God would raise up Jesus and entrust him to reign on the right hand of God’s throne. Let’s follow in His footsteps. Followers of Christ will go to Heaven, but we can lose our stewardship in Heaven, this can happen by abusing what God has entrusted to us on earth now. God not only entrusted us with the protection of children but also has given each one of us unique gifts and if He entrusts us with a gift that means we have the ability to serve Him with it, but it seems many instead use their gifts for a self serving purpose instead of imitating our Lord and serving as a good steward would.
Abusing The Temple.
The Temple that was in Jerusalem, (and it will be built again) is the most important location in the world for God. But even more important to God is us, Mankind, and God sent His Holy Spirit to dwell within us, inside of us. Our bodies are also a temple, Jesus said so Himself, and in no way should we profane it by injecting this vaccine into it. When Jesus found the Temple being profaned, being abused for selfish gain and people being taken advantage of, Jesus said “It is written, ‘My house shall be called a house of prayer,’ but you have made it a ‘den of thieves.” We also pray to God in our bodily temples. Those who do their research will discover that the vaccines have been tainted by being made using aborted fetal cell lines (little babies). These babies bodies are also little Temples in God’s eyes, so this is robbery, and babies organs are also harvested and sold. Some of the vaccines actually still have aborted fetal cells in them which end up in the recipient of the vaccine. Yet many I fear are deliberately self serving and ignorant and willingly taking this vaccine for reasons no less than to simply go on holiday and so conforming with the world – with what the world wants.
Jesus prayed to the Father “I pray for them. I do not pray for the world but for those whom You have given Me, for they are Yours. And all Mine are Yours, and Yours are Mine, and I am glorified in them.” This statement is quite clear. We belong to the Father and the Father has entrusted our care into the hands of Jesus; the perfect steward. The same can be said with little children, they belong to God but they are entrusted into our care. Are we setting a good example? are we good stewards? I think we are not. We need to teach our Children the Truth and pray like Job, God is our medicine.
Jesus said in John 17:9-19
“I pray for them. I do not pray for the world but for those whom You have given Me, for they are Yours. And all Mine are Yours, and Yours are Mine, and I am glorified in them. Now I am no longer in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to You. Holy Father, keep through Your name those whom You have given Me, that they may be one as We are. While I was with them in the world, I kept them in Your name. Those whom You gave Me I have kept; and none of them is lost except the son of perdition, that the Scripture might be fulfilled. But now I come to You, and these things I speak in the world, that they may have My joy fulfilled in themselves. I have given them Your word; and the world has hated them because they are not of the world, just as I am not of the world. I do not pray that You should take them out of the world, but that You should keep them from the evil one. They are not of the world, just as I am not of the world. Sanctify them by Your Truth. Your word is Truth. As You sent Me into the world, I also have sent them into the world. And for their sakes I sanctify Myself, that they also may be sanctified by the Truth.”
These are the words of Jesus. Read it prayerfully. He proclaimed that His Kingdom is not of this world – neither should ours be. Remember we were washed, we were sanctified by the Truth and justified in Jesus blood. The blood of Jesus is more precious than Silver and Gold but His precious blood was willingly spilled for us, He washed us in His blood – that was spilled as the result of betrayal and selfish greed yet ends up washing us clean of sin; all of us for eternity. Our sins, past present and future are paid for. I hope and pray our future sins will not be many, if we look for the Truth the Spirit will guide and help us to be good stewards, because Jesus has filled our bodily temples with His Spirit to help us.
Some people might argue it is a vaccine that will prevent serious illness, but the Truth is 99.9% get better from this virus without the vaccine, and we are not respecting the temple of the Holy Spirit by having an experimental vaccine which is also known to cause injury injected into us. I would also argue the true serious illness is the sin involved in producing the vaccines, there is much deceit in this vaccine – no informed consent, a lot of propaganda and no liability for these huge pharmaceutical merchants. Jesus told us “sin no more” but many are partaking in this sin by turning a blind eye to the Truth. Wisdom is known by her children and I fear many have not been berean enough in doing their own research.
Desiring God.
3 “Then the steward said within himself, ‘What shall I do? For my master is taking the stewardship away from me. I cannot dig; I am ashamed to beg. 4 I have resolved what to do, that when I am put out of the stewardship, they may receive me into their houses.’
The steward did not do the will of his master, and now Instead of looking to God, the steward is looking to the world for answers and I think had too much pride. Are you also looking to the world for answers and are you seeking solutions through men? In the following verses the steward continues to be self serving. He is seeking to cling onto the comforts he has known. In comparison, Job continues to desire God despite all of his illness, hardship and having lost everything. Seeking closeness with God, even forsaking all things, is what we all must be willing to do. Luke 14:33 “So likewise, whoever of you does not forsake all that he has cannot be My disciple.”
5 “So he called every one of his master’s debtors to him, and said to the first, ‘How much do you owe my master?’ 6 And he said, ‘A hundred measures of oil.’ So he said to him, ‘Take your bill, and sit down quickly and write fifty.’ 7 Then he said to another, ‘And how much do you owe?’ So he said, ‘A hundred measures of wheat.’ And he said
to him, ‘Take your bill, and write eighty.’ 8 So the master commended the unjust steward because he had dealt shrewdly. For the sons of this world are more shrewd in their generation than the sons of light.
This self serving servant cared only for himself and for comforts in this world right now. He did not repent but instead of repenting for his behaviour, he sinned further to win the favour of the people in this world, and he used deceit to get what he wanted and in the process he led his fellow debtors into sin. Then… He receives praises for his actions! Praise for something that is not praiseworthy. He was clearly a gifted servant but used the gifts he had for self serving only. The world will commend us for what it deems sensible and wise behaviour, but God will not agree with what the world deems sensible and wise as seen in the book of Job! The world will reward and praise our obedient behaviour in taking this vaccine, it might even appear wise and beneficial to able to continue taking part in the things of the world. The worldly is proving to be more shrewd right now than the followers of Christ who God said should be “The sons of Light”
We must choose, our rewards on Earth or in Heaven? The steward chose his rewards on earth. Sadly it seems the same can be said for many Christians today who will fall to the urges to please their friends and families, to please their colleagues and bosses, and to please the authorities, but ultimately to please their own desires to cling onto some kind of normality and be able to do what they are accustomed to do and go where they are accustomed to go and keep the comforts they are accustomed to having. They will take the vaccine and sacrifice instead their rewards in Heaven for something only temporary on this Earth. All this whilst sadly leading many others astray, intentionally or not.
Jesus told us “So likewise, whoever of you does not forsake all that he has cannot be My disciple.” – Like the steward in the parable who tried to hold onto his comfortable life, many appear to be willingly trying to hold on to the so called normal that they are used to on this Earth that they are forsaking following Jesus by profaning their temples (body) to follow the world. This is the opposite of what Jesus intended in this verse! We should have no problem whatsoever rejecting the vaccine and forsaking all that we have in this world to follow after our Lord. We should be desiring Jesus not this world. His Word is Truth, let us hear it and be sanctified by God. He entrusted us to be good stewards with it.
Being faithful in what is another man’s.
One misguided argument I hear is “We must protect the vulnerable, our loved ones, our neighbour, we have a duty to take this vaccine.” But I would say “We must protect the vulnerable, our loved ones, our neighbour by rejecting this vaccine with its roots in evil. We must stay on the straight and narrow path and imitate Christ and follow Him.” Let us show them the way by rejecting this poison – taking this poison will only integrate us further into this world.
9 “And I say to you, make friends for yourselves by unrighteous mammon, that when you fail, they may receive you into an everlasting home. He who is faithful in what is least is faithful also in much; and he who is unjust in what is least is unjust also in much. 11 Therefore if you have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true riches? 12 And if you have not been faithful in what is another man’s, who will give you what is your own?
Many see it as a small matter of taking or not taking this vaccine. But look at the verse “And if you have not been faithful in what is another man’s, who will give you what is your own?” Does the body of a little baby belong to us? No. Is it not their own life but entrusted to us by God? Yes. If we deliberately allow ourselves to directly or indirectly partake in their murder then we are not faithful with what is another mans and we are not being good stewards for our Master (God).
I think Jesus saw things as black and white and He did not compromise on anything, He would not take the middle ground. It was clear to Him. Jesus made his position clear when he addresses the church of Laodiceans in Revelation 3:15-16 “I know your works, that you are neither cold nor hot. I could wish you were cold or hot. 16 So then, because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will vomit you out of My mouth.” – we can not be indecisive, we have to make up our mind! I think their is a difference between being a believer and being a follower of Jesus Christ our God.
Things are not always so clear for us, but by not taking this vaccine is forsaking the world and to follow after Jesus as His Disciple. At first, not taking the vaccine might appear as being faithful in what is the least. If we cannot even be faithful in what we perceive to be least, then how can we be trusted with more in Heaven? If we compromise on this, what else will we compromise on? By not taking the vaccine, and doing diligent research, you soon discover how being faithful in what we might perceive to be least is definitely being faithful in much – because the roots of the vaccine is in murder, it has been created by murdering innocent unborn children and we call it abortion. We should be crying out.
Mathew 18:10 “Take heed that you do not despise one of these little ones, for I say to you that in heaven their angels always see the face of My Father who is in heaven.” Every little child that is aborted is a child that was sadly despised. God knows, and He knows them by name. God knits us in the womb but not for us to become a science project or to produce vaccines. Every child is a gift from God – not a gift for medical science! They are entrusted into our care.
God in Deuteronomy 27:25 says, ‘Cursed is the one who takes a bribe to slay an innocent person.’And all the people shall say, ‘Amen!’ – and I think all Christians should be saying Amen too. People are accepting money to do an abortion of an innocent baby, and now the pharmacies take money for the vaccines they developed from their poor little bodies.
Abortion is part of the unrighteous mammon, to compromise on abortion is being part of the unrighteous mammon – indirect involvement or not, these vaccines are an abomination where the innocent blood of babies who were still in the womb of the mother who should love them, is then experimented on without anesthesia, mutilated and even organs removed whilst still alive. Taking the vaccine is enabling the evil that is abortion to continue and for people to continue profiting from it. Abortion is a business and vaccines are a business and we are the target audience for both and both have joined forces together in the name of medical science. We are the consumer of these merchants and they will market this vaccine in a way to convince us we need it just as they convince us abortion is necessary for health care.
Finally
13 “No servant can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will be loyal to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon.”
It is a matter of choosing this world (mammon) or choosing God. If we chose the vaccine to be in the world then actually, do we not risk despising God? and despising little children? especially when the murder of innocents is involved. Jesus adores little children, and He is God. God knits everyone of us. If Jesus adores little children then we should also adore little children. It is another reason to speak out and refuse this vaccine that has been tainted with their innocent blood.
Jesus Blesses and Adores Little Children: Mark 10:13-16
“Then they brought little children to Him, that He might touch them; but the disciples rebuked those who brought them. But when Jesus saw it, He was greatly displeased and said to them, “Let the little children come to Me, and do not forbid them; for of such is the kingdom of God. Assuredly, I say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God as a little child will by no means enter it.” And He took them up in His arms, laid His hands on them, and blessed them.”
A friend fittingly sent me this verse: 1 Kings 18:21 ”And Elijah came to all the people, and said, “How long will you falter between two opinions? If the Lord is God, follow Him; but if Baal, follow him.” But the people answered him not a word” If you read on you will see they did not repent and God dealt with them accordingly. It seems to me there are many Christians who are also being deliberately ignorant about the Truth of the vaccine and like the followers of Baal they wont answer one word. They have decided what they want regardless. But you cannot serve both mammon and God.
Job put God first, and God provided for all of Jobs needs. The answers for what is happening right now cannot be found in men, the medicine for what is happening right now cannot be found in sorcery / witchcraft. God is our medicine, God is our cure, and He will provide for us just as He did for Job. If we are good stewards, He will entrust us with even more.
What do you think?
So, what does Jesus think? does Jesus want you to take this vaccine?… In my case the answer is no. But when you ask God, make sure you really want the Truth and don’t manipulate the answer. Ask the question, and pray to God for the answers and through Bible study. The answer is already in our hands, in God’s Bible, we just need to pray and be berean enough to do our research to see it and hear what He has to say. “He who has ears to hear, let him hear!”
I think the world has been and is being deceived….
In Revelation 18:23 John tells us how the world is deceived. “The light of a lamp shall not shine in you anymore, and the voice of bridegroom and bride shall not be heard in you anymore. For your merchants were the great men of the earth, for by your sorcery all the nations were deceived.”
The word sorceries might be better translated as pharmacy. In Greek it is rendered as pharmakeia and the word pharmakeia is pharmacy. So it could read “for by your pharmacies all the nations were deceived.” It is not by chance or coincidence that this can be rendered this way but it is from God…
In Revelation 9:21 John tells us “And they did not repent of their murders or their sorceries or their sexual immorality or their thefts.”
Sounds like Abortion of babies? poisoning of people? administering of drugs? (connected with abortion)
From Thayer’s Greek Lexicon:
pharmakeia
1) the use or the administering of drugs
2) poisoning
3) sorcery, magical arts, often found in connection with idolatry and fostered by it
4) metaphorically the deceptions and seductions of idolatry
I am certain there are some Christians whom are deliberately ignoring the facts and then they are quoting verses to do with the conscience to those who do not want to take the vaccine, to justify themselves for having taken it. Yet the more I think about it, it actually doesn’t have anything to do with my conscience, I simply believe it is wrong and so I wont take it. I want to trust in and follow Jesus.
Fortunately being a Christian means Jesus is our saviour. It is a real blessing and God will be graceful and merciful to us, but when spending eternity with God, wouldn’t you want to hear Him say “Well done good and faithful servant” and have Him reward you greatly and entrust you with stewardship over many things? I don’t know what my rewards will be if any, but how sad if it turns out I am spending eternity in Heaven yet have been entrusted with absolutely nothing!
We do have a choice. Let us pray and make the right choice.
Praying you all stay well.
God bless.
