"Before him all the nations will be gathered, and he will separate them one from another, as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats." (Matthew 25:32)
Judgment and Compassion
This vivid scene portrays the final judgment. The criteria for separation is practical compassion shown to "the least of these."
Jesus identifies Himself with the poor, the sick, and the imprisoned. Serving them is serving Him. It challenges us that true faith produces active love and mercy.
Key Lesson: True faith produces compassion. How we treat the needy is how we treat Christ Himself.
