The Life and Teachings of ChristSteve Gregg
In this Parables of Eternal Destiny discussion, Steve Gregg delves into the meaning of Luke 16, focusing on the parable of the unjust steward. He explains how money is a physical good for purchasing things in the natural sphere, but also a blessing and a test from God. Gregg explains that the steward in the parable should not be viewed as a positive example, but rather as a shrewd character who used his resources to benefit himself. Ultimately, Gregg emphasizes the importance of being faithful with the resources God has provided and using them to build everlasting habits.
