Then the King will tell those on his right hand, ‘Come, blessed of my Father, inherit the Kingdom
prepared for you from the foundation of the world; for I was hungry and you gave me food to eat.
I was thirsty and you gave me drink. I was a stranger and you took me in. I was naked and
you clothed me. I was sick and you visited me. I was in prison and you came to me.’ “Then the
righteous will answer him, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty
and give you a drink? When did we see you as a stranger and take you in, or naked and clothe you?
When did we see you sick or in prison and come to you?’ “The King will answer them,
‘Most certainly I tell you, because you did it to one of the least of these my brothers,
you did it to me.’ Then he will say also to those on the left hand, ‘Depart from me, you cursed,
into the eternal fire which is prepared for the devil and his angels; for I was hungry, and you
didn’t give me food to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave me no drink; I was a stranger, and you
didn’t take me in; naked, and you didn’t clothe me; sick, and in prison, and you didn’t visit me.’
“Then they will also answer, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry, or thirsty, or a stranger,
or naked, or sick, or in prison, and didn’t help you?’ “Then he will answer them, saying,
‘Most certainly I tell you, because you didn’t do it to one of the least of these, you didn’t
do it to me.’ These will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.”
Passage Number 4. This is from Luke chapter 14, verses 12 through 14. The scripture says:
He also said to the one who had invited him, “When you make a dinner or a supper,
don’t call your friends, nor your brothers, nor your kinsmen, nor rich neighbors,
or perhaps they might also return the favor, and pay you back. But when you make a feast,
ask the poor, the maimed, the lame, or the blind; and you will be blessed, because they don’t have
the resources to repay you. For you will be repaid in the resurrection of the righteous.”
Passage Number 5. The fifth verse is from Proverbs chapter 22, verse 9. The Bible says:
He who has a generous eye will be blessed, for he shares his food with the poor.

My little children, let’s not love in word only, or with the tongue only, but in deed and truth.
And by this we know that we are of the truth and persuade our hearts before him, .
