Faithful Stewardship

Luke 12:35-48

Sermon Notes:

Main Idea: A disciple of Jesus serves Him faithfully with enduring anticipation of His return

1. Be Faithful in Serving Jesus 

• Anticipate the Blessings 
• Be Watchful 
  
• 1 Thessalonians 5:2-5 For you yourselves are fully aware that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night. While people are saying, “There is peace and security,” then sudden destruction will come upon them as labor pains come upon a pregnant woman, and they will not escape. But you are not in darkness, brothers, for that day to surprise you like a thief. For you are all children of light, children of the day. We are not of the night or of the darkness. 
    

2. Be Faithful in Serving Jesus’ Household 
  

• Faithfulness means giving God’s people what the need to keep serving Jesus 
• Faithfulness receives greater responsibility at Jesus’ return 
• Unfaithfulness means abuse of authority 
• Unfaithfulness means self-indulgence 
• Unfaithfulness will be met with terrific judgment 
• Unfaithfulness will be judged proportionately
