 God Settles Accounts with Us as to Whom We Have Served in Our Lives ㅡ

 “After a long time the lord of those servants cometh, and reckoneth with them.” (Matthew 25:19)

 “Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?

 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.” (Matthew 7:22, 23)

 What revelations will be made in the day of judgment! Many who have called themselves Christians will be found to have been not servants of God, but servants of themselves.

 Self has been their center; self-service has been their lifework.

 By living to please themselves and to gain all they could for themselves, they have crippled and dwarfed the capabilities and powers entrusted to them by God.

 They have not dealt honestly with God. Their lives have been one long system of robbery.

 These now complain against God and their fellow men, because they are not recognized and favored as they think they ought to be.

 But their unfaithfulness will be revealed in that day when the Lord judges the cases of all.

 He will return “and discern between the righteous and the wicked, between him that serveth God and him that serveth Him not.” (Malachi 3:18).
