‘Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance ...’
 ‘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,  
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.’
‘when did we see you ... ?’
‘whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’

29. Matthew 25:31-46
“Then he will say to those on his left, ‘Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels...’

...
‘when did we see you ... ?’
‘whatever you DID NOT DO for one of the least of these you DID NOT DO for me.’

30. We cannot fool God Psalm 139
You have searched me, Lord,  and you know me. You know when I sit and when I rise;
you perceive my thoughts from afar.
Search me, God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts. See if there is any offensive way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.
