Do NOT Rob Yourself (Believers) Of A Blessing



The Son Of Man Will Judge The Nations (Matthew 25:31-46) 


“When The Son of Man (Jesus Christ) comes in His (Jesus Christ’s) Glory, and All The Holy Angels with Him (Jesus Christ), then He (Jesus Christ) will sit on The Throne of His (Jesus Christ’s) Glory.  All the Nations will be gathered before Him (Jesus Christ), and He (Jesus Christ) will separate them One (Believers) from another (Unbelievers), as a Shepherd (Jesus Christ) divides His (Jesus Christ’s) Sheep (Believers) from the goats (Unbelievers).  And He (Jesus Christ) will set the Sheep (Believers) on His (Jesus Christ’s) Right Hand, but the goats (Unbelievers) on the left.

Then The King (Jesus Christ) will say to Those (Believers) on His (Jesus Christ’s) Right Hand, ‘Come, YOU (Believers) Blessed of My Father (God Almighty), inherit The Kingdom (The Kingdom  of God Almighty) prepared for YOU (Believers) from The Foundation of the World: for I (Jesus Christ) was hungry and YOU (Believers) gave Me (Jesus Christ) food; I (Jesus Christ) was thirsty and YOU (Believers) gave Me (Jesus Christ) drink; I (Jesus Christ) was a stranger and YOU (Believers) took Me (Jesus Christ) in; I (Jesus Christ) was naked and YOU (Believers) clothed Me (Jesus Christ); I (Jesus Christ) was sick and YOU (Believers) visited Me (Jesus Christ) ; I (Jesus Christ) was in prison and YOU (Believers) came to Me (Jesus Christ).’

“Then The Righteous (Believers) will answer Him (Jesus Christ), saying, ‘Lord (Jesus Christ), when did We (Believers) see YOU (Jesus Christ) hungry and feed YOU (Jesus Christ), or thirsty and give YOU (Jesus Christ) drink?  When did We (Believers) see YOU (Jesus Christ) a stranger and take YOU (Jesus Christ) in, or naked and clothe YOU (Jesus Christ)?  Or when did We (Believers) see YOU (Jesus Christ) sick, or in prison, and come to YOU (Jesus Christ)?’  And The King (Jesus Christ) will answer and say to Them (Believers), ‘Assuredly, I (Jesus Christ) say to YOU (Believers), inasmuch as YOU (Believers) did it to one of the least of these, My Brethren (Believers), YOU (Believers) did it to Me (Jesus Christ).’”

“Then He (Jesus Christ) will also say to those (Unbelievers) on the (Jesus Christ’s) Left Hand, ‘Depart from Me (Jesus Christ), YOU (Unbelievers) cursed, into The Everlasting Fire prepared for the devil and his angels: for I (Jesus Christ) was hungry and YOU (Unbelievers) gave Me (Jesus Christ) no food; I (Jesus Christ) was thirsty and YOU (Unbelievers) gave Me (Jesus Christ) no drink; I (Jesus Christ) was a stranger and YOU (Unbelievers) did NOT take Me (Jesus Christ) in, naked and YOU (Unbelievers) did NOT clothe Me (Jesus Christ), sick and in prison and YOU (Unbelievers) did NOT visit Me (Jesus Christ).’

“Then they (Unbelievers) also will answer Him (Jesus Christ), saying, ‘Lord (Jesus Christ), when did we (Unbelievers) see YOU (Jesus Christ) hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and did NOT Minister to YOU (Jesus Christ)?’  Then He (Jesus Christ) will answer them (Unbelievers), saying, ‘Assuredly, I (Jesus Christ) say to YOU (Unbelievers), inasmuch as YOU (Unbelievers) did NOT do it to one of the least of these, YOU (Unbelievers) did NOT do it to Me (Jesus Christ).’  And these (Unbelievers) will go away into Everlasting Punishment (The Everlasting Fire), but The Righteous (Believers) into Eternal Life (into God Almighty’s Immediate Presence, with Jesus Christ, The Holy Spirit, and God’s Holy Angels).”

Believers, I pose a question to YOU.  On Judgment Day, when YOU (Believers) stand before Our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, which would make YOU (Believers) feel worse or more ashamed?  Jesus (Jesus Christ) reminding YOU (Believers) of all the sins, YOU (Believers) ever committed OR Jesus (Jesus Christ) showing YOU (Believers) All the Souls/Spirits, YOU (Believers) could have lead to Christ (Jesus Christ)?

Yes, I know, Our (Believers) sins are forgiven and forgotten, each time We (Believers) ask God Almighty, so they (Our sins) will NOT actually be brought up at that Time (Judgment Day).  And yes, I know, other Souls/Spirits acknowledging God’s Amazing Saving Grace AND accepting God’s Free Gift of Salvation, is completely up to those Souls/Spirits (i.e. it is NOT dependent upon Us, Believers). 

Now, having said this, let me remind YOU (Believers), God Almighty has Created a uniquely special Path (God’s Path), for each of Us (Believers) to walk.  As We (Believers) walk God’s Path, We encounter other people (Believers, Yet-To-Be- Believers, and Unbelievers), and every single one of these encounters has a purpose, even if We (Believers) do NOT know it or understand it.  Yes, even when We (Believers) walk away from God’s Path, We encounter other people (Believers, Yet-To-Be- Believers, and Unbelievers), and every single one of these encounters has a purpose, even if We (Believers) do NOT know it or understand it.  When We (Believers) do step off (walk away from) God’s Path, God Almighty gives Us (Believers) a “swift kick” to get back on God’s Path, through Godly Discipline, which means We (Believers) may suffer through trials or tribulations.  Please understand, God Almighty does NOT make Us (Believers) suffer, but God Almighty does allow Us (Believers) to suffer, there is a difference.  In this way, We (Believers) may understand God Almighty even more.

Walking God’s Path, includes encounters with Believers, Yet-To-Be- Believers, and Unbelievers.  Meaning, We (Believers) have the opportunity to Preach The Gospel of Jesus Christ to each of them.  We (Believers) may even Witness (being in the presence of) Them (Yet-To-Be- Believers), acknowledging God’s Amazing Saving Grace AND accepting God’s Free Gift of Salvation, thereby becoming a Fellow Believer, a Child of God Almighty!  Also, when We (Believers) Preach The Gospel of Jesus Christ to Fellow Believers, They (Believers) will learn something God Almighty wants Them (Believers) to know, at that point in time.  And, when We (Believers) Preach The Gospel of Jesus Christ to Unbelievers, even though Our (Believers) Words may fall upon “deaf ears and blind eyes”, We (Believers) can still pray to God Almighty, to touch their (Unbelievers) hearts, that one day they (Unbelievers) will have “Ears to hear and Eyes to see” (become Yet-To-Be- Believers)!

Now, back to the second half of my question, On Judgment Day, when YOU (Believers) stand before Our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, which would make YOU (Believers) feel worse or more ashamed?  Jesus (Jesus Christ) reminding YOU (Believers) of all the sins, YOU (Believers) ever committed OR Jesus (Jesus Christ) showing YOU (Believers) All the Souls/Spirits, YOU could have lead to Christ (Jesus Christ)?  IF YOU (Believers) fail to Preach The Gospel of Jesus Christ to Yet-To-Be- Believers, does this mean They (Yet-To-Be- Believers) will NOT have the opportunity to acknowledge God’s Amazing Saving Grace AND accept God’s Free Gift of Salvation?  NO, They (Yet-To-Be- Believers) will still have the opportunity to acknowledge God’s Amazing Saving Grace AND accept God’s Free Gift of Salvation, thereby becoming a Fellow Believer, a Child of God Almighty!  The point is, YOU (Believers) ROBBED Yourself (Believers) of a Blessing!

Remember this, “Then The Righteous (Believers) will answer Him (Jesus Christ), saying, ‘Lord (Jesus Christ), when did We (Believers) see YOU (Jesus Christ) hungry and feed YOU (Jesus Christ), or thirsty and give YOU (Jesus Christ) drink?  When did We (Believers) see YOU (Jesus Christ) a stranger and take YOU (Jesus Christ) in, or naked and clothe YOU (Jesus Christ)?  Or when did We (Believers) see YOU (Jesus Christ) sick, or in prison, and come to YOU (Jesus Christ)?’  And The King (Jesus Christ) will answer and say to Them (Believers), ‘Assuredly, I (Jesus Christ) say to YOU (Believers), inasmuch as YOU (Believers) did it to one of the least of these, My Brethren (Believers), YOU (Believers) did it to Me (Jesus Christ).’”

Fellow Believers, please, do NOT rob Yourselves (Believers) of a Blessing!  When YOU (Believers) encounter, an opportunity to receive a Blessing, by helping others, take it, humbly.  Especially, when YOU (Believers) have the opportunity to Preach The Gospel of Jesus Christ, to Witness (being in the presence of) someone (Yet-To-Be- Believers), acknowledging God’s Amazing Saving Grace AND accepting God’s Free Gift of Salvation, thereby becoming a Fellow Believer, a Child of God Almighty!  May YOU (Believers) graciously and humbly, accept every opportunity to serve God Almighty and Our Lord Jesus Christ, thereby receiving infinite Blessings, but just as importantly, storing up Your (Believers) Treasures in Heaven!  Amen.
