The Messiah warned those servants of the LORD being taught by calling them "Little flock" and listed the consequences if they did not do their reasonable service. Only one of three are expelled from His house when He returns from His wedding, to be with the unbelievers.

And consistent with what i said, if one has their part with the lost then it obviously does not mean that all the examples used in this teaching that follows were saved. And nowhere is it said that the others were saved either, while what it show is that they belong to the class of unfaithful servants. And even admitting that at least one was lost case refutes the argument that the use of "flock" means the other two were saved, and let alone saved by becoming fit enough in purgatory.

There is no occurrence of the words saved or lost in the text but there is this warning to friends. This is in accord with the rest of his teaching.

And I say unto you my friends, Be not afraid of them that kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do. But I will forewarn you whom ye shall fear: Fear him, which after he hath killed hath power to cast into hell; yea, I say unto you, Fear him.

Luke, Catholic chapter twelve, Protestant verses four to five,
as authorized, but not authored, by King James
