Matthew 18:23

The Parable Of The Unforgiving Slave

²² Jesus answered, I tell thee not only seven: but seventy times seven. ²³ In this respect the gospel-kingdom may be represented by that of a temporal prince, who had a mind to call his servants to account. ²⁴ when he had begun to reckon, one was brought to him indebted the sum of ten thousand talents.

For This Cause

Kingdom of Heaven

Matthew 13:24

Another parable he propos'd to them in these words. the state of the gospel in this world may be compar'd to a man who sowed good grain in his field:

He propos'd another parable to them, which was this; the gospel-state is like a grain of mustard-seed which a man took to sow in his field.

Again, the gospel-kingdom is like a net that is cast into the sea, and draws all sorts of fish:

The kingdom of the Messiah will then be such, as when ten virgins took their lamps, and went out to meet the bridegroom.

Matthew 25:14

So it was when a man was going to travel into a foreign country, he called his servants, and delivered to them his stock:

Romans 14:12

Since then every one of us shall give an account of himself to God;

1 Corinthians 4:5

therefore suspend your judgment till the Lord comes, who will bring to light the secrets of darkness, and expose the counsels of mens hearts: and then shall every man have his due reward from God.

2 Corinthians 5:10-11

for we must all appear before the tribunal of Christ; that every one may receive the retribution, according as his actions in the body were either good or evil.
