belongs to another is steal ing and is sin the amount of stealing going on today in govern ment circles is surely indicative that our moral condition has sunk to very low levels the basis of all this

account of thy stewardship for thou mayest be no longer steward there is a day of reckoning for all this accounting was to close the account so far as this servant was concerned the accusations of verse 1 were too manifestly true to make the matter stand in doubt verse 3 what shall i do i cannot dig to beg i am asham ed his soft life had unfitted him for hard work and his pride shrank from the humiliation of begging he might have added and nobody else will trust me with a stewardship how men defeat their own ends by their sin verse 4 i am resolved that they may receive me into their houses
