Matthew 25:14-30 For the kingdom of heaven is as a man traveling into a far country, who called his own servants, and delivered to them his goods.… Applause, vainglory, and suchlike carnal motions and ends may set some men on work, and make them prostitutethe service of Christ to their own lusts. This is not to trade as factors for God, but to set up for ourselves. (T. Manton.)
