1. The Great Divide
Jesus used a simile involving sheep and goats to help us envision the literal judgement scene.
A. Serving Sheep
B. Graceless Goats
2. The Big Surprise!
Both the righteous and the unrighteous were surprised by the words of Jesus. Neither remembered seeing the Lord in need. We are called to minister to the needs of others--especially fellow believers--as though we were ministering to the Messiah himself.
3. The "Least of These" Ministry
We must demonstrate Christ's lordship in our lives through acts of service. We are to participate in the "least of these" ministry highlighted by Jesus in this passage.
A. Pray
B. Give
C. Volunteer
We Are His Hands
Matthew 25:31-46
