Faithfulness to the Lord is something the church emphasizes often. In fact, we've placed a high value on it for a long time—and rightly so. Faithfulness is a big deal. It plays a significant role when we stand before the Lord in judgment. Jesus Himself says, “Well done, good and FAITHFUL servant. Enter into your reward” (Matthew 25, The Parable of the Talents, emphasis mine). Clearly, faithfulness is a priority in the Kingdom of God.
