"....So I hid it in the ground, and, lo, there you have
what is yours."
And his lord was very angry, and said,
"You wicked and lazy servant ! You knew
I reap where I have not sown, and gather what I
have not threshed. How dare you waste the tal
ent? At least you might have lent it to a banker,
when it would have made some growth. And he
commanded him to be cast out"; Jesus stopped.
Judas, who had listened with a half-frown on his face, said nothing, and Jesus,
watching him, smiled and said,
"Well, Judas, have I justified myself?
Judas, as if half-reluctantly, smiled too.
"What is your meaning" he asked.
"That men must learn to use their powers. To

"I tell you that now the kingdom is being
preached, men everywhere are forcing their way
into it. It is God's will that men should have life
and have it in greater fullness. Think you this
will not cause division? If a man seek the kingdom, his enemies shall be those of his own house
hold, and even his old familiar friends, in whom
he trusted, will turn against him. But I am here
to teach men to be lawgivers to themselves, and
he who is daunted by any man is not worthy of
me."
His passion woke passion in every man of us. It was as if a fire lit up in our souls and ran through our veins. Judas' eyes burned in his head, and Peter cried out,
"Master, tell us of the great deeds you said we
should do"; Jesus looked at him and then at Judas, and a.....
