  6. THE 7 TIMES 70 EXPLAINED 6000 YEARS OF PROBATION Revelation 14:7 Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.

  14. 2. THE TIME OF RECKONING: GOD’S TRIAL OUR TRIAL THE PARABLE OF FORGIVENESS 18:23 Therefore is the kingdom of heaven likened unto a certain king, which would take account of his servants. 18:24 And when he had begun to reckon, one was brought unto him, which owed him ten thousand talents.

  15. THE IMMEASURABLE DEBT 10,000 TALENTS= 113,000 LBS + SILVER?=1 YR REVENUE OF BRITISH EMPIRE (1800’S) “But the Hebrew talent of silver, called cicar, was equivalent to three thousand shekels, or one hundred and thirteen pounds, ten ounces and a fraction, troy weight.” --Noah Webster, 1828 Dictionary 10,000 TALENTS = THE INFINITE VALUE LEND TO MANKIND

  16. GOD’S IMAGE-GOD’S MEANS FOR A TRIAL

  17. THE VALUE LEND BY GOD TO MANKIND—HIS IMAGE=GOD’S VALUE IN MAN Genesis 1:26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. 1:27 So God created man in his [own] image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.

  18. THE VALUE IN THE SCALES IS GOD’S IMAGE GOD’S IMAGE IN MAN= GOD’S VALUE IN MAN GOD’S IMAGE IN MAN=GOD’S RIGHTEOUSNESS IN MAN ONE IS THE ORIGINAL, THE PATTERN OR THE STANDARD AND THE NEXT ONE IS THE COPY EQUITY (Value shared equally)

  19. A. GOD’S GLORY-IMAGE-FACE 2 Corinthians 3:18 But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, [even] as by the Spirit of the Lord.

  20. B. GOD’S GLORY-IMAGE Hebrews 1:3 Who being the brightness of [his] glory, and the express image (Gk. Karakteer--exact replica, or exact representation) of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;

  21. C.GOD’S GLORY-IMAGE-CHARACTER-FACE Exodus 33:18 And he said, I beseech thee, show me thy glory. 33:19 And he said, I will make all my goodness pass before thee, and I will proclaim the name of the LORD before thee; and will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and will show mercy on whom I will show mercy. 33:20 And he said, Thou canst not see my face: for there shall no man see me, and live.

  22. IMAGE=THE MEASURE OF LIFE When a human life is in danger, what sacrifices men are ready to make! They stop at no risk, they grudge no effort and no cost that will save the imperiled life. Of how much more value is that life which measures with the life of God!...

  23. IMAGE=THE MEASURE OF LIFE …If we are Christians, and not mere pretenders, shall we not be far more earnest and interested to rescue the soul than to save the body? {GCB, December 1, 1895 par. 21} God’s image is our life, the condition of our existence, the means of His trial!

  24. GOD’S TRIAL IS OUR TRIAL

  25. THE TRIAL OF A GENEROUS KING The king called all his subjects to judge him . He gave them all his wealth to finance his trial. At the reckoning time, the king will know their verdict by the way the subjects spends his wealth. At the time of judgment one was found that he had used the money for pleasures.

  26. THE TRIAL OF A GENEROUS KING Then one was found used all the money for his wants and needs and did not use it to know the true character of his king. Then the last one was found that he used all the money for popularity. All were required to pay it back. They Had judged the king wrongfully and were judged the way they judged the king.

  27. GOD’S TRIAL IS OUR TRIAL Matthew 25:24 Then he which had received the one talent came and said, Lord, I knew thee that thou art an hard man, reaping where thou hast not sown, and gathering where thou hast not strowed: 25:25 And I was afraid, and went and hid thy talent in the earth: lo, [there] thou hast [that is] thine.

  28. GOD’S TRIAL IS OUR TRIAL 25:26 His lord answered and said unto him, [Thou] wicked and slothful servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I have not strowed: 25:27 Thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to the exchangers, and [then] at my coming I should have received mine own with usury. 25:28 Take therefore the talent from him, and give [it] unto him which hath ten talents.

  29. GOD’S TRIAL IS OUR TRIAL Matthew 7:1 Judge not, that ye be not judged. 7:2 For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.

  30. GOD’S TRIAL FOR STABILITY The mind may speculate upon this, and fail to comprehend it; for the great matter to be decided in the conflict was not merely between God and man; every creature that God had created was involved in the conflict…

  31. GOD’S TRIAL FOR STABILITY The unfallen worlds saw that the character of God could be vindicated only through this trial and conflict of the two forces. The attributes of God must be made to appear. Of the stability of his government there must be no question… (eternal security)

  32. GOD’S TRIAL FOR STABILITY And the Son of God himself proposed to carry forward the work to the end, to gain the victory over the prince of darkness and over all his allies- {YI, April 15, 1897 par. 13} Jesus-is to vindicate God’s image. But Satan’s purpose is to destroy it.

  33. 3. THE INFINITE DEBTS TO BE PAID 18:25 But forasmuch as he had not to pay, his lord commanded him to be sold, and his wife, and children, and all that he had, and payment to be made. The servant has to pay it with his body, his family and all his property.

  34. DEBTS=SIN, TRESPASS Matthew 6:12 And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. 6:14 For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you: 6:15 But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.

  38. SIN=TO EFFACE GOD’S IMAGE …He was determined to efface the image of God from the human posterity,and to trace his own image upon the soul in the place of the divine image. He adopted methods of deception by which to accomplish his purpose…

  39. SIN=TO EFFACE GOD’S IMAGE …He is called the father of lies, an accuser of God and of those who maintain their allegiance to God, a murderer from the beginning.
