					<description><![CDATA[I think that Jesus told the parable in the context of the community that he lived in, where slavery was an accepted part of their culture.  It was a relationship they could relate to, that illustrated God&#039;s relationship with His servants.  Slavery is no longer an accepted practice in most countries of the world.  But, in a free enterprise system, if a person works long hard hours for many years to build a business and then it succeeds, the owner usually will give responsibilities to their employees that increases their profits.  Here in the U.S., these types of employees are paid a percentage higher than their coworkers as an encouragement for them to help the company turn a profit.  A sales person may often seem to not work as hard as everyone else, but in reality they are putting their most creative thoughts and efforts into making a profit for their employer. ]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Am Deeply Touched From This Sharing. But I Have Some Worries Concerning The Reaction Of The Third Servant Whom The Master Entrusted The Talent To Him.  By Drawing A Biblical Understanding To Our Daily Lives, isn&#039;t It Justifiable To The Later That The Source Of The Master Talent Wasn&#039;t Genuine ie He Reap Where He Did&#039;nt Sow, and If He Does Or Multiplied It, his Would Comprised His Eternity. Secondly, his Reaction Could Also Be Extend To The Working Habit Of Most Of Us Who Don&#039;t Like To Put To Service Their&#039;s Best, but Long For The Best Wages As A prior Cited. Isn&#039;t It Contradictory?]]></description>
