18 Parables of Judgment & Salvation (cont'd)
The Sheep and the Goats
But when the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the
angels with him, then shall he sit on the throne of his glory: and before him
shall be gathered all the nations: and he shall separate them one from
another, as the shepherd separateth the sheep from the goats: and he shall set
the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left. Then shall the King
say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the
kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world: for I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a
stranger, and ye took me in; naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye
visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me. Then shall the righteous
answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed thee? or
athirst, and gave thee drink? And when saw we thee a stranger, and took thee
in? or naked, and clothed thee? And when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and
came unto thee? And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto
you, Inasmuch as ye did it unto one of these my brethren, even these least, ye
did it unto me. Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from
me, ye cursed, into the eternal fire which is prepared for the devil and his
angels: for I was an hungred, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye
gave me no drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me not in; naked, and ye
clothed me not; sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not. Then shall they
also answer, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, or athirst, or a
stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto thee?
Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did
it not unto one of these least, ye did it not unto me. And these shall go away
into eternal punishment: but the righteous into eternal life.
