The Parable of the Talents (Matthew 25)

The Parable of the Talents is about the big wars that will shortly precede the arrival of Jesus. These wars are also known as the harvest of the tares: reaping where you have not sown.

Matthew 25 is composed of three parts:

1. The arrival of the fake Jesus (false prophet) and the Mark.

2. The big wars that shortly precede the arrival of Jesus.

3. The judgement of remaining nations based on who took the Mark.

Jesus doesn't want you to understand Matthew 25. That's why it's in parable form.

What is the purpose of parables?

Matthew 13

10 The disciples came to him and asked, “Why do you speak to the people in parables?”

11 He replied, “Because the knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of heaven has been given to you, but not to them. 12 Whoever has will be given more, and they will have an abundance. Whoever does not have, even what they have will be taken from them. 13 This is why I speak to them in parables:

“Though seeing, they do not see;    though hearing, they do not hear or understand.

14 In them is fulfilled the prophecy of Isaiah:

“‘You will be ever hearing but never understanding; you will be ever seeing but never perceiving. 15 For this people’s heart has become calloused; they hardly hear with their ears, and they have closed their eyes. Otherwise they might see with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their hearts and turn, and I would heal them.’[a]

16 But blessed are your eyes because they see, and your ears because they hear. 17 For truly I tell you, many prophets and righteous people longed to see what you see but did not see it, and to hear what you hear but did not hear it.

Do you reject things you don't want to hear? Do you know some important things are true without even bothering to investigate?

Analyis of the Parable of the Talents ( Matthew 25:14-30):

Please take a look at Matthew 25:14-30 now.

Shortly before the arrival of Jesus there are a series of big wars and the arrival of the fake Jesus. Now let's continue.

24 “Then he who had received the one talent came and said, ‘Lord, I knew you to be a hard man, reaping where you have not sown, and gathering where you have not scattered seed.

Harvest of the tares: "reaping where you have not sown, and gathering where you have not scattered seed."

Matthew 25:24 is talking about the harvest of the tares. The big wars (nuclear wars) represent the harvest of the tares. Christians in these lands will die along with most people unless they are prepared or they flee in time. 

The Ukraine war will lead to a big war with America within a few years. Ukraine is just a starting place for a much bigger agenda: kicking NATO out of eastern Europe and challenging the American led world order. China is a part of this challenge but currently works in the background. Everything is now in play. If you can't begin to see it on your own then you are probably in trouble.

The parable includes three people: 5-talents, 2-talents and 1-talent. The 1-talent person buries what he knows. Any news about the harvest of the tares is buried. Anything in the Bible about that harvest is buried. This person will simply die with everybody else in a land hit by nuclear attack. The survival rate will be small.

Why is it buried? Because this person is afraid of the implications. Better to just bury it. Otherwise, he will have to get ready for nuclear war or move out of the US and eventually the entire West. It is better to bury it and just die when the time comes. And that time is fast approaching.

What makes someone a 5-talent person?

Navigating the end-times is going to be easier for some people than others depending on where they live. People who live in countries that have been given the most by God (the West) will be the most difficult to escape. Hence, the few individuals who escape death will be in the 5-talent group due to its difficulty. I anticipate this group being pretty small. I know some Christians have left America due to end-times reasoning. Others are preparing for the worst, like nuclear war. These groups are small.

If you live in South America then maybe you won't be hit by big wars. You might only have to worry about the fake Jesus (aka false prophet) and the Mark. The lower difficulty puts you in the 2-talent group.

Why does the talent from the 1-talent guy go to the 5-talent guy? Why not the 2-talent guy? When some Christians in Europe see America obliterated then they will know that Europe is probably the next target and flee in time. People in South America are not going to react. The knowledge transfers to those most at risk.

The Son of Man Will Judge the Nations

Notice how the last section of Matthew 25 is about Jesus judging the remaining nations. This is gonna be real easy. Anybody who took the Mark is toast. Everybody else is good.

Conclusion

In fairness, it is really hard to believe anyone who tells you about a coming calamity.  You need to hear it from several people over multiple years before it begins to sink in. This actually happened to me before the 2008 financial crash. It took me about six months and news from about four different people before I finally understood that the danger was serious enough to act. I finally did act at the beginning of 2008.

If you are going to be a 5-talent Christian then you will have to be prepared for nuclear war.
