Matthew 25:31-46

Jesus said that when He returns, the sheep (believers) will be separated from the goats (non-believers). The believers will inherit the kingdom (enter into heaven). They will be commended for meeting the needs of the poor and oppressed - feeding them, clothing them, providing shelter, and looking after the sick and imprisoned. According to Jesus, when we do these things, we are doing them for Him. These are the things He wants us to do - the things He has commanded us to do. The ones who He condemns are the ones who have not done these things.

Belief in Jesus and following Him is not just a mental exercise. True followers of His will be motivated to real action. When you love someone, you want to do things for them and this is what Jesus has asked us to do if we love Him. One day, each of us will give an accounting of their life. You can be a sheep or you can be a goat - it's up to you.
