'The Sheep and the Goats'
Matthew chapter 25 verses 31 - 46 Jesus Christ clearly taught that men and women are responsible to God for the way they think, speak and act. Christians believe there is a final judgment when faith, shown by how men and women have acted, especially to those less fortunate, will be the test of receiving God's blessing in heaven - or not. This parable (earthly story with a heavenly meaning) is very clear. As you read it apply it to the 21st century and make notes as to how it could be applied practically to:
|
Those in your own age group |
at home and abroad and what is being done? |
|
Adults in the U.K. who you know |
Governments, especially our own in the U.K. |
