1) Jesus told his disciples: "There was a rich man whose manager was accused of wasting his possessions. So he called him in and asked him, 'What is this I hear about you? Give an account of your management, because you cannot be manager any longer.' "The manager said to himself, 'What shall I do now? My master is taking away my job. I'm not strong enough to dig, and I'm ashamed to beg.'" (NIV) What did the dishonest manager decide to do to make the best of a bad situation?
He decided to reduce the debts of everyone who owed his master.
He destroyed all the masters records to cover up his crimes.
He promised the master he would pay back all he had stolen.
He took as much of the master's possessions as he could and fled to a foreign land.
