Matthew 24:47 Meaning and Commentary

Matthew 24:47

Verily I say unto you
Nothing is a greater truth, more certain, or to be depended on, than this; all such wise, faithful, diligent, and industrious servants may expect it: that he, shall make him ruler over all his goods;
will honour him with greater gifts, bestow a larger degree of Gospel light and knowledge on him, make him more useful in the church below, and at last cause him to inherit all things in the other world, all glory, happiness, and bliss.

Matthew 24:47 In-Context

45 "Who is the wise and loyal servant that the master trusts to give the other servants their food at the right time?

46 When the master comes and finds the servant doing his work, the servant will be blessed.

47 I tell you the truth, the master will choose that servant to take care of everything he owns.

48 But suppose that evil servant thinks to himself, 'My master will not come back soon,'

49 and he begins to beat the other servants and eat and get drunk with others like him?
