Ephesians 5:8-9(NLT) “For though your hearts were once filled with darkness, now you are full of Light form the Lord and your behavior should show it! For this Light produces only what is good, right and true”

Why we do what we do?

We Love

God is love and he commands us to love. Love is an action

1 John 4:7-8(NLT) “Dear friends, Let us continue to love one another, for love comes from God. Anyone who loves is born of God and knows God. But anyone who does not love does not know God- For God is Love.

1 John 4:18 (NLT) “Dear children, Let us stop saying that we love each other; let us really show it by our actions.

Isaiah 58:10-11(NLT) “Feed the hungry and help those in trouble. Then your light will shine out from the darkness, and the darkness around you will be as bright as the day. The Lord will guide you continually, watering your life when you are dry and keeping you healthy too. You will be like a well be like a well- watered garden, like an ever flowing spring.”

Mathew 25:31-46
“But when the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, then he will sit upon his glorious throne. All the nations will be gathered in his presence, and he will separate them as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. He will place the sheep on his right hand and the goats at his left. Then he will say to those on the right, ‘Come, you who are blessed by my father, inherit the Kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world. For I was hungry, and you fed me. I was thirsty, and you gave me drink. I was a stranger and you invited me into your home. I was naked, and you clothed me. I was sick, and you cared for me. I was in prison, and you visited me.

Then these righteous ones will reply, ‘Lord, when did we ever see you hungry and feed you? Or thirsty and gave you something to drink? Or a stranger and show you hospitality? Or naked and give you clothing? When did we ever see you sick or in prison, and visited you? And the king will tell them, ‘I assure you, when you did it to one of the least of these my brothers and sisters, you did it to me!’

Then the King will turn to those on the left and say, ‘Away with you, you cursed ones, into the eternal fire prepared for the Devil and his demons! For I was hungry, and you didn’t feed me. I was thirsty, and you didn’t give me anything to drink. I was a stranger, and you didn’t invite me into your home. I was naked, and you gave me no clothing. I was sick and in prison, and you didn’t visit me.’

Then they will reply, Lord, when did we ever see you hungry or thirsty, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and not help you?’ And he will answer, ‘I assure you, when you refused to help the least of my brothers and sisters, you were refusing to help me.’ And they will go into eternal punishment, but the righteous will go into eternal life.”
