Answer #1

               The “minas” represented (1) the knowledge of and the understanding of Sacred Secrets, and (2) Special Bible Understanding of God’s Sacred Purposes that was not generally known.  If these “minas” were misused, then they would be taken away from the individual as he would have “blasphemed the spirit” for which he cannot gain forgiveness from Jehovah ever.  (Matthew 12:31, 32; 1 John 5:16)
