Holy Week – Holy Wednesday – Bible Study

Mark 3:7-12 "But Jesus withdrew Himself with his disciples to the sea: and a great multitude … when they had heard what great things he did, came unto Him…" (John 6, Matthew 13:36-40)

A large crowd was gathering and people were coming to Jesus from town after town, He told this parables, He healed them (He accepted everyone who follow Him, there's no differences.). First time People saw the living Hope. Jesus said that the Kingdom of God could be seen through His life and teachings. People who followed His teachings would also be part of the Kingdom and bringing it to earth. Great multitudes followed Him and He healed them, teach them. The Jewish leaders were worried about growing Jesus' popularity, although they were shocked to hear about Jesus' Scriptures knowledge. After many unsuccessful attempts to prove Him wrong, they made a plan to kill Him.

We saw in our last post that how much Jewish leaders try to trap Jesus with a questions. Now, Jesus went out and departed from the Temple: and His disciples came to Him for to shew Him the buildings of the temple Matthew 24:1. This section forms Jesus’ last major discourse and His most prophetic and apocalyptic message of the coming of the end of the world or the present age. While the message includes a prediction of the coming up fall of Jerusalem (Jerusalem destruction in 70 A.D.), it also goes far beyond to point us to the distant future during which the “times of the gentiles” will continue until the end of “great tribulation”. Jesus then left the city, cross the Kidron valley and when east of Jerusalem to the mount of Olive from which He could look down on the temple courtyard. Here His disciples asked Him three questions when shall this things be? “The destruction of temple”, What shall be the sign of thy coming? “The coming of the King..”, and the End of the world? “The age” Matthew 24:3. Therefore the entire discloser must be looked upon an answering all three off these questions.

Jesus answered and warn them, many shall come refers to the parade of false-Messiahs who have now spanned the centuries of the Church history and have led many astray into false-religious cults. In verse Matthew 24:6-20 (Luke 21:20-38) Jesus talking about “wars and rumors of wars..” refer to peace being taken from the earth and the constant wars that have continually marked the “Age of the gentiles” famines and plagues this events make only “the beginning of sorrow”. In verse 14, “The Gospel of the Kingdom” refers to the missionary growth of the Church in all the world. The Gospel shall be preached in all the world, the inhabited world, and unto all nations, then shall the end come. In Matthew 24:15 (After Rapture taking place), Jesus talk about the “awful horror”. The abomination of desolation refers to Daniel 9:27, Daniel 11:31, Daniel 12:11. Where the Jewish Temple worship would foreshadow a similar and more severe act by the antichrist. Whereas Antiochus offered a pig on the scared Altar of the Temple, The antichrist will present himself 2 Thessalonians 2:4 as the signal of the beginning of “the great tribulation” in the midst of the week Daniel 9:27 this is the 70th week of Daniel’s prophecy, whose length is 42 months Revelation 11:2, 1260 Days Revelation 12:6, or time, and times, and half a time Daniel 7:25, Revelation 12:14. Then shall be great tribulation makes our Lord’s reference to Daniel 12:1 clearly evident has taking place just prior to the Resurrection in Daniel 12:2.

Jesus comfort them with referring about “His second coming” in Matthew 24:21 (After Rapture taking place), The terrible days of that time shall be shortened by SUDDEN RETURN OF CHRIST to destroy the wicked one 2 Thessalonians 2:8. The phrase “if it were possible..shall deceive the very elect.. ” clearly indicated that those who have been truly saved cannot be deceived and fall away. In Matthew 24:27, The lightning, shining from the east..even unto the west refers to the final expect of Christ’s return (Not the Rapture) In judgment upon the earth.

Matthew 24:27, Jesus comfort them with referring about “RAPTURE” In 1 Thessalonians Chapter 4, He comes in the cloud for the Church; in 2 Thessalonians Chapter 1 and 2 He comes to the Earth WITH THE CHURCH to Judge the world.

Jesus reference to the events before “the Christ’s millennial Kingdom” in Matthew 24:29-31, The reference of the event immediately after the tribulation, such as the sun being darkened and stars falling, refers to the cataclysmic that will accompany Christ’s millennial Kingdom on the earth. His return will marked by the sign of the Son of Man in Heaven, which will identify His coming to the earth.

The disciples asked Jesus that when it will happen? Jesus answered, Matthew 24:35-36, warns against attempts to set an exact date for Christ’s return and the end of “the Church age” . The speculate that “Day” and “Hour” do not eliminate “Year” is a gross oversimplification. THE FATHER GOD ONLY KNOWS THE TIME OF CHRIST’S RETURN SINCE IT HAS BEEN SET BY HIS AUTHORITY ACTS 1:7. Jesus gave an example in Matthew 24:39-42 that the people of “the Noah’s day” knew not the suddenness of the coming destruction indicated that this last generation will be totally unprepared for the coming of the Son of Man, the return of the Christ to judge the world. 2 Thessalonians 1:7-8 the reference to two being in the field or at work at the time of Christ’s return implies the suddenness of His coming to separate the Lost and saved.

Jesus gave them examples by some of Parables, Matthew 24:43-51, The parable of the two servants follows to illustrate the seriousness of “Christ’s second coming”.

In Matthew 25:1-13, The parable of ten virgins explains the difference between the true believers and false. Here the bridegroom is Jesus Christ, and this parable describes His return, The lamps seems to refer to faith and the Oil refers to the Holy Spirit. (THE ONE BRIDE OF CHRIST IS THE CHURCH). In the Old Testament, Read Isaiah 54:4–6; 62:4-5; Hosea 2:19, God pictures Himself as the “husband” of Israel, and in the New Testament John 3:27–30; Matthew 9:15; Mark 2:19–20, Christ is pictured as the bridegroom of the Church. The Church is described in Scripture as the bride of Christ Ephesians 5:25–32. Christ will return (RAPTURE) at an unknown hour and that His people must be ready. Being ready means preparing for whatever contingency arises in our lives and keeping our eyes fixed on Jesus at all times while we eagerly await His coming. Being ready for Christ’s return ultimately involves one major thing which manifests itself in several areas of our lives. If we would be ready for Christ’s return, we must be born again through saving faith in Jesus Christ…His death, burial and literal resurrection from the dead John 3:16; 14:6; Romans 10:9 and 10; 1 Corinthians 15:1-4; Ephesians 2:1-10. Saving faith in Jesus Christ will manifest itself in every aspect of our lives. The fruit of the Spirit Galatians 5:22 will begin to show. The five virgins who have the extra oil represent the truly born again who are looking with eagerness to the coming of Christ. The five virgins without the oil represent false believers who enjoy the benefits of the Christian community without true love for Christ. They are more concerned about the party than about longing to see the bridegroom. Their hope is that their association with true believers (“give us some of your oil” of verse 8) will bring them into the kingdom at the end. This, of course, is never the case. One person’s faith in Jesus cannot save another. The “Lord, lord” and “I do not know you” of verses 11 and 12 fit very well with Jesus’ condemnation of the false believers of Matthew 7:21-23, “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father who is in heaven will enter. Many will say to Me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in Your name, and in Your name cast out demons, and in Your name perform many miracles?’ And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness.”.

Matthew 25:14-23, the parable of the talents further emphasize the need for personal preparation and faithful service to the master. The talents represent large unites of money and are distributed according to ability. Far country indicates the time during which Jesus is in Heaven, between His first coming and His final return. The tree servants of three type of who are entrusted with various task in accordance with their own ability. They are all faithful and they used their talents according to their ability to produce more money, while the third servant hide it in the ground. Even though, The master said “Well done.. ” when he returned. The great mistake of the unfaithful servant is misjudging the character of his Master. He could not have known the master well to assume him to be severe and merciless. He fails to understand the real generosity of his Master, who wanted him to experience the joy of service. Whereas the parable of the ten virgins emphasize personal preparation for the coming of Christ, the parable of the talents stresses the importance of faithful service during His present, absence. Here the unfaithful servant, who is cast into outer darkness, indicated that he is not a true disciple of the master.

In the Gospel of Luke 20:41-47, “How can..” Jesus answers His own question. Scriptures teaches that Jesus is more that David’s Son. Jesus quotes Psalm 110:1 Davis says the Lord (The God of Israel) sais to my Lord (Messiah Jesus). The Lord (Jesus Christ) is descendent of David and greater than His father David, and thus David calls Him Lord read Matthew 1:1-16 (the genealogy of Jesus the Messiah).

Jesus foretells the destruction of the Temple and Jerusalem Luke 21:5-24, and coming of the Son of Man Luke 21:25-38. As is also the case earlier in Luke 17:22, 19:43-44 the destruction of Jerusalem in 70 A.D. is used by Jesus as a pattern or a type of ultimate destruction at the end of the age when Christ’s returns.

In Luke 21:5, Herod began renovating the temple complex in 20 B.C. the work was completed in 63 A. D. (The Temple complex was 0.96 miles or 1.55 km around the enclosed a space equivalent to one sixth pf the entire city), some 30 years after Jesus’ Crucifixion, some of stones used for foundation were 40 feet Long. Others were overlaid with Gold. But Jesus declares that “Not one stone will be left on another.. ”in 70 A.D. the Roman Armies fulfilled the prophecy by leveling that temple and the city of Jerusalem. Many of the huge stone of temple were collapsed in to lower areas surrounding the complex. EVEN THOUGH HEROD TEMPLE LOOKED MASSIVE AND IMPRESSIVE BUT STILL COULDN'T REACHED TO THE GLORY OF THE SOLOMON'S TEMPLE, it was the most beautiful construction.. 1 Kings 6:22-35, 1 Kings 8:10,11.

And in the end Jesus talk about the judgment day Matthew 25:31-46, the judgment of the nations concludes our Lord’s prophetic discloser. This judgment of all nations must be distinguish from THE GREAT WHITE THRONE judgment at the end of the millennium. The nations are those peoples living through “the great tribulation” on earth at the time of Christ’s return. This is judgment of separation sheep on His right… goats on His left. At this judgment all nations (batter all gentiles) stand before Christ who then separates the sheep (the saved) from the goats in a manner reminiscent of the wheat and tares parable. Note that these are living nations, whereas the great white throne (Jesus’s Throne) judgment is one of the wicked death whose bodies are resurrected to face the final judgment of the lost. Thus, the SAVED are INVITED to come into and share the blessings of HIS KINGDOM.. “Come, ye Blessed of my Father, inherit the Kingdom.” This basis of their acceptance seems to be their treatment of the least of these MY BRETHERN, the saved of the great tribulation.

(Note that: We know that “nothing can happen without God's permission” HE is Almighty GOD Matthew 8:27 "Even the winds and the waves obey Him..". Jesus' rejection as Messiah, crucifixion, death on the cross, resurrection were already God's plan. God did this for our Salvation, so that we can obtain His Righteousness by the sacrificial death of His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ. God made the Chief Priest and Pharisees spiritually blind that they didn't accept Jesus as Messiah, even though He has fulfilled all the prophecies and did all the miracle. God made Jesus' opposition and persecutor to fulfill His will. The main thing is we put our faith on God’s sent, His Son Jesus Christ, the perfect God-Man, came to offer the pure, complete and everlasting sacrifice to remove, atone, and make eternal payment for sin. “Keep yourselves in God's love as you wait for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to bring you to eternal life.” Romans 6:23 "For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord" Read also John 3:16-17, Hebrews 4:14-16. )

No one is ever too lost to be saved by God's amazing grace. It doesn't matter how many steps you took away from God, remember there's only one step backward to get right with Him; only single step in the right direction. Sometimes we get so hard on ourselves that we don't want to see we already has the solution of our problem! We're living in the constant fear of our society; fear of being criticized, fear from changes and fear of being hurt, and that's how we have missed the point; the point of “God's Grace!” Trusting in God's unfailing Grace and Favour is the exact opposite of living in fear that society doesn't has. Place your Trust in Him, He created all the things visible and nonvisible and He knows what's going on, Just BELIEVE “But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory: 8 Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.9 But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him” 1 Corinthians 2:7-9 We don't need to be perfect because we have the Perfect God Almighty as our helper and our Guide “I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go: I will guide thee with mine eye.” Psalm 32:8. God the Father wants us to rely on Him for everything, from our daily bread to our Eternal Salvation, He is our provider God …“Our fathers did eat manna in the desert; as it is written, “He gave them bread from heaven to eat.” John 6:31-44, “Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:” Romans 3: 24 , “That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.” Romans 10:9, Nothing is impossible for God, if we believe in Him, He will do it for us “But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible.” Luke 1:37 Bible is full of the story about God's mercy toward peoples disobedience and iniquity. We saw how forgiving was our Heavenly Father towards those people in Bible time, than why do we think that the same God who full of compassion and grace suddenly changed? He has the same compassionate Heart and He loves us; HIS Children and His marvellous creations. But He is the just God, He punish the sins but not sinners because Jesus already took our punishment on the cross and died for our sins, but Jesus is the God, One of the member of the Holy Trinity so that He rose again from death on the third day (That's why we celebrate The Resurrection Day, Easter) “Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.” Hebrews 13:8 So, don't be like modern day Pharisees! Look at the ordinary people in the Gospels, those Israelites and Gentiles (everyone except Jews) knew nothing about The Messiah, (The Son of God and our Saviour) but they followed Jesus Christ and accepted Him as their Saviour by the inspiration of God and the Holy Spirit. WE read their stories in The Bible, they were real and they were became God's living miracle... Be the living miracle! Have Faith on God Almighty.

“Behold, he that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep.” Psalm 121:2-4 , “The nation is like a mighty lion; When it is sleeping, no one dares wake it. Whoever blesses Israel will be blessed, And whoever curses Israel will be cursed.” Numbers 24:9 There are many PROPHECIES about “The Great Tribulation” (Read Micah 2:12) Isaiah 63:1-6 describe the area of “Petra” in Jordan as the place where Jews flee when the antiChrist begins persecution, it will be a horrible time for those who will left behind (This is why I urge you to accept Jesus Christ as your God and Saviour, be Baptized in Him) “God Just to For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to ALL men” Titus 2:11-12 whether you are Jews, Muslims, Hindus, Buddhist, atheists you can start your New Life from today by accepting Jesus Christ as your God, Saviour and by being Baptized in His name you will have the Power of Holy Spirit, who seals you until the day of Redemption (RAPTURE) “And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.” Ephesians 4:30 and once you received “The Seal of The Holy Spirit” then antiChrist, all evils and death has no power over you “Therefore it is of faith, that it might be by grace; to the end the promise might be sure to all the seed; not to that only which is of the law, but to that also which is of the faith of Abraham; who is the father of us all,” Romans 4:16, (Read also Ephesians 2:8-11, Galatians 3:28, Romans 10:12, Acts 2:21-22, 1 Timothy 2:4-6 ) Alright, back to the point! The Jews in the 7 years period of great tribulation -- (Read Micah 2:12) Isaiah 63:1-6 describe the area of “Petra” in Jordan as the place where Jews flee when the antiChrist begins persecution, It is where they remain safely protected by God during the period of the Great Tribulation. That is why Israel will stand firm even after going through 7 years of the great tribulation and all, “Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness. Behold, all they that were incensed against thee shall be ashamed and confounded: they shall be as nothing; and they that strive with thee shall perish.” Isaiah 41:10-11 So, the main thing is Israelites need to accept Jesus as The Messiah, this is the last chance to get Raptured and if they don't then, they will have to go through the 7 years of Great Tribulation because of their unbelief on the Son of God Jesus Christ, The Promised Messiah. But God will deliver them, and they will accept Jesus as their Messiah and then The Millennial Kingdom will began, God judge the world and will throw the devil and his followers into the lake of fire and then The New Heaven and The New Earth will come down from above. (See Revelation chapter 7 to 22)

May God bless you...

Matthew 24:1-25:46 (Mark 13:1-37, Luke 20:1-21:4)

And Jesus went out, and departed from the temple: and his disciples came to [him] for to shew him the buildings of the temple.

2 And Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these things? verily I say unto you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down.

3 And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what [shall be] the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?

4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.

5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.

6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all [these things] must come to pass, but the end is not yet.

7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.

8 All these [are] the beginning of sorrows.

9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake.

10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.

11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.

12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.

13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.

14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.

15 When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:)

16 Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains:

17 Let him which is on the housetop not come down to take any thing out of his house:

18 Neither let him which is in the field return back to take his clothes.

19 And woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days!

20 But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day:

21 For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.

22 And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened.

23 Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here [is] Christ, or there; believe [it] not.

24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if [it were] possible, they shall deceive the very elect.

25 Behold, I have told you before.

26 Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth: behold, [he is] in the secret chambers; believe [it] not.

27 For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

28 For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together.

29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:

30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.

31 And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.

32 Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer [is] nigh:

33 So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, [even] at the doors.

34 Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled.

35 Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.

36 But of that day and hour knoweth no [man], no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.

37 But as the days of Noe [were], so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark,

39 And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

40 Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.

41 Two [women shall be] grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left.

42 Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.

43 But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up.

44 Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh.

45 Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them meat in due season?

46 Blessed [is] that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing.

47 Verily I say unto you, That he shall make him ruler over all his goods.

48 But and if that evil servant shall say in his heart, My lord delayeth his coming;

49 And shall begin to smite [his] fellowservants, and to eat and drink with the drunken;

50 The lord of that servant shall come in a day when he looketh not for [him], and in an hour that he is not aware of,

51 And shall cut him asunder, and appoint [him] his portion with the hypocrites: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

Matthew Chapter 25

1 Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom.

2 And five of them were wise, and five [were] foolish.

3 They that [were] foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them:

4 But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.

5 While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept.

6 And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him.

7 Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps.

8 And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out.

9 But the wise answered, saying, [Not so]; lest there be not enough for us and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves.

10 And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut.

11 Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us.

12 But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not.

13 Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh.

14 For [the kingdom of heaven is] as a man travelling into a far country, [who] called his own servants, and delivered unto them his goods.

15 And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one; to every man according to his several ability; and straightway took his journey.

16 Then he that had received the five talents went and traded with the same, and made [them] other five talents.

17 And likewise he that [had received] two, he also gained other two.

18 But he that had received one went and digged in the earth, and hid his lord's money.

19 After a long time the lord of those servants cometh, and reckoneth with them.

20 And so he that had received five talents came and brought other five talents, saying, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me five talents: behold, I have gained beside them five talents more.

21 His lord said unto him, Well done, [thou] good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.

22 He also that had received two talents came and said, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me two talents: behold, I have gained two other talents beside them.

23 His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.

24 Then he which had received the one talent came and said, Lord, I knew thee that thou art an hard man, reaping where thou hast not sown, and gathering where thou hast not strawed:

25 And I was afraid, and went and hid thy talent in the earth: lo, [there] thou hast [that is] thine.

26 His lord answered and said unto him, [Thou] wicked and slothful servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I have not strawed:

27 Thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to the exchangers, and [then] at my coming I should have received mine own with usury.

28 Take therefore the talent from him, and give [it] unto him which hath ten talents.

29 For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath.

30 And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

31 When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory:

32 And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth [his] sheep from the goats:

33 And he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left.

34 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:

35 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:

36 Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me.

37 Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed [thee]? or thirsty, and gave [thee] drink?

38 When saw we thee a stranger, and took [thee] in? or naked, and clothed [thee]?

39 Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee?

40 And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done [it] unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done [it] unto me.

41 Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:

42 For I was an hungred, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink:

43 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.

44 Then shall they also answer him, 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?

45 Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did [it] not to one of the least of these, ye did [it] not to me.

46 And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal.
