The Judgment of the Nations
The article analyzes the judgment of the nations in Matthew 25:31-46, where the Son of Man separates the sheep from the goats according to their actions. It emphasizes responsibility and divine justice, and calls for concrete acts of love.
John 5.22-27 (King James Version) :For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son:That all men should honour the Son, even as they honour the Father. He that honoureth not the Son honoureth not the Father which hath sent him.Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and they that hear shall live.For as the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the Son to have life in himself;And hath given him authority to execute judgment also, because he is the Son of man.King James Version (1769), domaine public — texte : eBible.org
