If ye transparent to the stories about Jesus in the Bible, it is remarkable that he not to the rich, the clever and educated, and those of reputation in society which had to say was. Jesus was almost always among the drunks, the losers, the sick, the poor, the beggars, the handicapped, the weak, to those for which no one cared who had nothing and say nothing in particular had.
He has done because he was convinced that it is precisely these people needed God.
And to his friends, he said, "so the power goes to the people who need you tell them about God, and do them some good!." (Eg, Matthew 10.1 to 15)
and his friends went and did it exactly as Jesus had told them that.
They told the people of God prayed for them, healed the sick and many have even raising the dead and cast out demons.
is now all about 2000 years ago!
And the question is: WHAT HAS WITH
U.S. TO DO?
The answer: What Jesus had said to his friends, this is still true today for his friends! And if you're Christian, you are among friends and then it applies to you!
Because what we have (be it money, time, reputation, charm, "WHATEVER"), which we have not just like that. Everything we have, we have from God. And God willing, we are pleased and grateful. Sure, but he also wants us to help people who are worse off than us. The fact that we are not selfish by this world and are glad that we are not as bad off as other people. But that we help our fellow human beings.
Jesus once told a story about how it will be the last court where decides who goes to heaven and who is not (now ma do not worry, it's a story that is to us what to teach important, not a factual report - Jesus has not told to make us fear, but to make us aware of something very important !!!).
He said that will stand before the throne of God 2 groups.
to one group of judges (Jesus) will say, '..' You were great, really you come to any event in the sky For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat when I was thirsty, I got one of you something to drink. I was a stranger with you, and you welcomed me. I was naked, you've given me something to wear. I was sick and you visited me. I was in prison and you came to me "
The people to whom he will say that will be surprised by this bold praise and will then ask." Lord, when are you hungry and we have been given you to eat? Or thirsty and we gave thee drink? When we have granted you hospitality, and when you've been naughty and we have brought you clothes? When were you sick or in prison and we visited you, "
And Jesus will answer them:" I can tell you. What are you one of the least brothers and friends have done, you did it for me "
to the other group, he will say," Hey, you make away! Your shit was real to me! Because when I was hungry, because you gave me nothing to eat. I was thirsty, but you gave me nothing to drink. I was a stranger and you did not welcome me. I was naked, but you would have told me to give anything to wear. I was sick and in prison, but you have not you taken care of me. ? Why are you sied for friends
Then they too will ask him: "Yes, Lord, Jesus, that's not all. Hey, when did we see you hungry or thirsty because, without accommodation, naked, sick or in prison, seen and not helped you? But we would have made for you "
And Jesus will answer them:" The help that you have refused my brethren and friends that you've denied me too "
(If you like to read more! times in Matthew 25:31-46 to)
Everything we do as Christians (or not) that has something to do with our Lord
We can not say. "Hey, we're really the super Christians, we believe, pray, fast, and so on! wants is not the
For Jesus that all people hear from him and his - we are really great and our fellow human beings we do not care! become friends.
And a friend that you're not simply lie in the gutter!
So the task for the next 2 weeks:
