Mathew 25
34 “Then the King will say to those on his
right, ‘Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance, the
kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world. 35 For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was
thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me
in, 36 I needed clothes and you clothed
me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came
to visit me.’
37 “Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord,
when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to
drink? 38 When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing
clothes and clothe you? 39 When did we see you
sick or in prison and go to visit you?’
40 “The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you,
whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine,
you did for me.’
Christ didn’t come to save the righteous. Sinners, the lost, the homeless, immigrants, transgender children, and all the people you love to mock and detest are included in the preceding scripture. You can continue detesting them, or you can follow Christ. But you can’t do both and profess to be a Christian.
