Matthew 24:47 Meaning and Commentary

Matthew 24:47

Verily I say unto you
Nothing is a greater truth, more certain, or to be depended on, than this; all such wise, faithful, diligent, and industrious servants may expect it: that he, shall make him ruler over all his goods;
will honour him with greater gifts, bestow a larger degree of Gospel light and knowledge on him, make him more useful in the church below, and at last cause him to inherit all things in the other world, all glory, happiness, and bliss.

Matthew 24:47 In-Context

45 "Who, then, is a faithful and wise servant? It is the one that his master has placed in charge of the other servants to give them their food at the proper time.

46 How happy that servant is if his master finds him doing this when he comes home!

47 Indeed, I tell you, the master will put that servant in charge of all his property.

48 But if he is a bad servant, he will tell himself that his master will not come back for a long time,

49 and he will begin to beat his fellow servants and to eat and drink with drunkards.
