2.24.11

Matthew 25:45

"I tell you the truth, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me".

Here in the 25th chapter of Matthew, Jesus discusses a separation of the sheep and the goats when the Son of Man comes in all his glory. Many of us know verse 35 where Jesus tells the sheep to take their inheritance, the kingdom prepared for them since the creation of the world. They are blessed by the Father because they had fed the hungry, gave drink to the thirsty, clothed those in need, looked after the sick and visited the prisoner. When He speaks to the goats he tells them some crushing news. We must notice that there are two types of people described here; those that do the will of God and those who don't. We are God's workmanship created in Christ Jesus to do good works which God has prepared in advance for us to do (Eph 2:10). Let us seek to walk in those good works prepared for us today and be a doer of the Word.

To God be the glory!
