Parable of the Talents teaches that the servants of God must be faithful by promptly and efficiently administering what has been entrusted to them until the day of reckoning. A talent is indicative of a gift, ability, responsibility, or blessing – given by God.
o “And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one; to every man according to his several ability; and straightway took his journey” (Matt 25:15).
