Episode Details

In this episode of Down to Earth Theology, Matt Plett concludes his exposition of Matthew 24 by examining Jesus' teaching on the faithful and wicked servants. Far from encouraging passivity, Christ calls His people to faithful stewardship, kingdom service, and obedience while awaiting His return. Matt explores how Matthew 24:45–51 applied to the generation that witnessed the destruction of Jerusalem and how its warning continues to challenge Christians today. What does kingdom readiness actually look like? How should pastors, elders, church members, fathers, mothers, and ordinary believers live in light of Christ's reign? And what separates the faithful servant from the wicked servant? Join us as we conclude this important study of Matthew 24 and consider Christ's call to faithful dominion, service, and perseverance.
