We just finished Feast of Weeks again, Pentecost last week.
The spring feasts and holy days are over again.
Today's topic:
Serving God in pretence
A hypocrite acts in pretence
The last few weeks shows me again that visitors that come
to our congregation have little knowledge of Scripture.
They give opinions on subjects in Scripture that they have
not studied out.
This shows me their enthusiasm and their zeal to know the
truth is very low. I always wonder if people really believe in the true living God
of Israel, and that they have an everlasting soul.
If all you do is come to a Sabbath service, and you never
read Scripture, pray or fast during the week, you are just kidding yourself.
You might think you know the Scriptures, but the word of God is not dwelling in
you richly.
This shows up in your personality, the way you carry
yourself, the way you talk to people and the way you handle situations. You may find yourself not making a stand for
holiness by offering an apology, making an excuse or unknowingly condone
situations that are not Godly.
To put it simply, you just can’t attend a Sabbath service
once a week and think you serving God.
This is what has led me to this study this week, because I
see that without you knowing it, you may be turning yourself into a hypocrite,
doing things in pretence.
Let’s begin our study
Scripture says:
Pertaining to the few verses above, can you really say that
you’re living your life by them?
Let’s look up a few words:
Pretence
make-believe or feigning
a false display;
affectation
a false claim or
allegation; pretext
the act of pretending, a claim, esp a false one, to a right, title, or
distinction
πρόφασις - prophasis - prof'-as-is
- an outward showing, that is, pretext: - cloke,
colour, pretence, show, a pretext (alleged reason,
pretended cause), a show, under colour as though
they would do something, in pretence, ostensibly
--------------------------
Hypocrite
חנף chânêph - khaw-nafe' -
soiled (that is, with sin), impious: - hypocrite (-ical).
חנף chânêph - khaw-nafe'
- A primitive root; to soil, especially in a moral sense: - corrupt, defile,
greatly, pollute, profane.
A person who pretends to have virtues, moral or religious
beliefs, principles, etc., that he or she does not actually possess, especially a
person whose actions belie stated beliefs.
A
person who feigns some desirable or publicly approved attitude, especially one
whose private life, opinions, or statements belie his or her public statements
-----------------------------------
I see
people that have belied Yehovah all the time, they say God is so loving you can
do anything you want, and there is no judgment.
Belie = to
misrepresent
----------------------------
The second part of
this verse below I see all the time. The first part, being teaches of the
Torah, law has been totally erased.
1Tim.1[7] Desiring
to be teachers of the law; (they don’t desire that any more)(they still
today) understanding neither what they say, nor whereof
they affirm.
--------------------
Let’s read what God thinks about
hypocrites
Job.8 [3] Doth God pervert judgment? or doth the Almighty
pervert justice?
[4] If thy children have sinned against him, and he have cast them away
for their transgression;
[5] If thou wouldest
seek unto God betimes, and make thy supplication to the Almighty;
[6] If thou wert pure and upright; surely now he would awake for thee, and
make the habitation of thy righteousness prosperous.
[7] Though thy beginning was small, yet thy latter end should greatly
increase.
[8] For inquire, I pray thee, of the former age, and prepare thyself to
the search of their fathers:
[9] (For we are but of yesterday, and know nothing, because our days
upon earth are a shadow:)
[10] Shall not they teach thee, and tell thee, and utter words out of
their heart?
[11] Can the rush grow up without mire? can the flag grow without
water?
[12] Whilst it is yet in his greenness, and not cut down, it withereth
before any other herb.
[13] So are the paths of all that forget God;
and the hypocrite's hope shall perish:
[14] Whose hope shall be cut off, and whose trust shall be a spider's
web.
Job.13[16] He also
shall be my salvation: for an hypocrite shall not come before him.
Job.15[34] For the
congregation of hypocrites shall be desolate, and fire shall consume the
tabernacles of bribery.
Job.20 [4] Knowest
thou not this of old, since man was placed upon earth,
[5] That the triumphing of the wicked is short, and the joy of the hypocrite
but for a moment?
[6] Though his excellency mount up to the heavens, and his head reach
unto the clouds;
[7] Yet he shall perish for ever like his own dung: they which have seen
him shall say, Where is he?
[8] He shall fly away as a dream, and shall not be found: yea, he shall
be chased away as a vision of the night.
[9] The eye also which saw him shall see him no more; neither shall his
place any more behold him.
[10] His children shall seek to please the poor, and his hands shall
restore their goods.
[11] His bones are full of the sin of his youth, which shall lie down
with him in the dust.
[12] Though wickedness be sweet in his mouth, though he hide it under
his tongue;
[13] Though he spare it, and forsake it not; but keep it still within
his mouth:
[14] Yet his meat in his bowels is turned, it is the gall of asps within
him.
[15] He hath swallowed down riches, and he shall vomit them up again:
God shall cast them out of his belly.
[16] He shall suck the poison of asps: the viper's tongue shall slay him.
Job.27[8] For what is the
hope of the hypocrite, though he hath gained, when God taketh away his soul?
Job.36 [5] Behold, God
is mighty, and despiseth
not any: he is mighty in strength and wisdom.
[6] He preserveth not the life of the wicked: but giveth right to the
poor.
[7] He withdraweth
not his eyes from the righteous: but with kings are they on the throne; yea, he
doth establish them for
ever, and they are exalted.
[8] And if they be bound in fetters, and be holden in cords of
affliction;
[9] Then he sheweth
them their work, and their transgressions that they have exceeded.
[10] He openeth
also their ear to discipline, and commandeth that they return from iniquity.
[11] If they obey and serve him, they shall spend
their days in prosperity, and their years in pleasures.
[12] But if they obey not, they shall perish by the sword, and
they shall die without knowledge.
[13]
But the hypocrites in heart heap up wrath: they cry not when he bindeth
them.
[14] They die in youth, and their life is among the unclean.
Prov.11[9] An hypocrite with his mouth destroyeth
his neighbour: but through knowledge shall the
just be delivered.
Isa.33[14] The sinners in Zion are afraid;
fearfulness hath surprised the hypocrites.
Who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire? who
among us shall dwell with everlasting burnings?
------------------
Yeshua was confronted with hypocrites all the time. Let’s
read how he handled them. Remember, all these people thought they were serving
God, however they belie the Lord.
When you set yourself up as a teacher, you become a
Pharisee and the Sadducees.
Let’s read:
[1] Take heed
that ye do not your alms before men, to be seen of them: otherwise ye have no
reward of your Father which is in heaven.
[2] Therefore when thou
doest thine alms, do not sound a trumpet before thee, as
the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory of men. Verily I say unto you, They have
their reward.
[3] But when thou
doest alms, let not thy left hand know what thy right hand doeth:
[4] That thine alms may be in secret: and thy Father which seeth in
secret himself shall reward thee openly.
[5] And when thou prayest,
thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are:
for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in
the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto
you, They
have their reward.
[6] But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou
hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which
seeth
in secret shall reward thee openly.
[7] But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for
they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking.
[8] Be not ye
therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of,
before ye ask him.
[9] After this manner therefore pray ye: Our
Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.
[10] Thy kingdom come. Thy
will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.
[11] Give us this day our daily bread.
[12] And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.
[13] And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For
thine is
the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.
[14] For if ye forgive men their trespasses,
your heavenly Father will also forgive you:
[15] But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your
Father forgive your trespasses.
[16] Moreover
when ye fast, be
not, as the hypocrites, of a sad countenance:
for they disfigure their faces, that they may appear
unto men to fast. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.
[17]
But thou, when thou fastest, anoint thine head, and wash thy face;
[18] That thou appear not unto men to fast, but unto thy Father which is
in secret: and thy Father, which seeth in secret, shall reward thee openly.
[19] Lay not up for
yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where
thieves break through and steal:
[20] But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust
doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal:
[21] For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
[22] The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single,
thy whole body shall be full of light.
[23] But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness.
If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is that darkness!
[24] No man
can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or
else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and
mammon.
[25] Therefore I
say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye
shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the
life more than meat, and the body than raiment?
[26] Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they
reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not
much better than they?
[27] Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature?
[28] And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the
field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin:
[29] And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not
arrayed like one of these.
[30] Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which to day
is, and to
morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you,
O ye of little faith?
[31] Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What
shall we drink? or,
Wherewithal shall we be clothed?
[32] (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly
Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things.
[33] But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and
all these things shall be added unto you.
[34] Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take
thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.
[1] Judge not,
that ye be not judged.
[2] For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what
measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.
Remember, we
do not use our own judgment. We judged all things by the word of God.
[3] And why beholdest
thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam
that is in thine own eye?
[4] Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of
thine eye; and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye?
[5] Thou hypocrite, first cast out
the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the
mote out of thy brother's eye.
[1] Then came to
Yeshua scribes and Pharisees, which were of Jerusalem, saying,
[2] Why do thy
disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? for they wash not their
hands when they eat bread.
[3] But he
answered and said unto them, Why
do ye also transgress the commandment of God by your tradition?
[4] For God
commanded, saying, Honour
thy father and mother: and, He that curseth father or mother, let him die the
death.
[5] But ye say, Whosoever shall say to his father or his mother, It is a
gift, by whatsoever thou mightest
be profited by me;
[6] And honour
not his father or his mother, he shall be free. Thus have ye made the
commandment of God of none effect by your tradition.
[7] Ye hypocrites, well
did Esaias
prophesy of you, saying,
[8] This people draweth nigh unto me with
their mouth, and honoureth
me with their lips; but their heart is far from me.
[9] But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the
commandments of men.
[1] The Pharisees also with the Sadducees came, and tempting desired him that he would shew them a sign from heaven.
[2] He answered
and said unto them, When
it is evening, ye say, It will be fair weather: for the sky is red.
[3] And in the morning, It
will be foul weather to
day: for the sky is red and lowring. O ye hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the
sky; but can ye not discern the signs of the times?
[4] A wicked and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign; and
there shall no sign be given unto it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas. And he
left them, and departed.
[1] Then spake
Yeshua to the multitude, and to his disciples,
[2] Saying, The scribes and the Pharisees
sit in Moses' seat:
[3] All therefore whatsoever they bid you observe, that observe and do;
but do not ye
after their works: for they say, and do not.
[4] For they bind heavy burdens and grievous to be borne, and lay them
on men's shoulders; but they themselves will not move them with one of their
fingers.
[5] But all their works they do for to be seen of men: they make broad
their phylacteries, and enlarge the borders of their garments,
[6] And love the uppermost rooms at feasts, and the chief seats in the
synagogues,
[7] And greetings in the markets, and to be called of men, Rabbi, Rabbi.
[8] But be not ye called Rabbi: for one is
your
Master, even Messiah; and all ye are brethren.
[9] And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which
is in heaven.
[10] Neither be
ye called masters: for one is your Master, even Messiah.
[11] But he that is greatest among you shall be your servant.
[12] And
whosoever shall exalt himself shall be abased; and he that shall humble himself
shall be exalted.
[13] But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees,
hypocrites! for
ye shut up the kingdom of heaven against men: for ye neither go in yourselves,
neither suffer ye them that are entering to go in.
[14] Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees,
hypocrites! for
ye devour widows' houses, and for a pretence make long prayer: therefore ye
shall receive the greater damnation.
[15] Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees,
hypocrites! for
ye compass sea and land to make one proselyte, and when he is made, ye make him
twofold more the child of hell than yourselves.
[16] Woe unto you, ye blind guides,
which say, Whosoever
shall swear by the temple, it is nothing; but whosoever shall swear by the gold
of the temple, he is a debtor!
[17] Ye fools and blind: for whether
is greater, the gold, or the temple that sanctifieth the gold?
[18] And, Whosoever shall swear by the altar, it is nothing; but
whosoever sweareth
by the gift that is upon it, he is guilty.
[19] Ye fools and blind: for whether
is greater, the gift, or the altar that sanctifieth the gift?
[20] Whoso therefore shall swear by the altar, sweareth by it, and by all
things thereon.
[21] And whoso shall swear by the temple, sweareth by it, and by him
that dwelleth
therein.
[22] And he that shall swear by heaven, sweareth by the throne of
God, and by him that sitteth
thereon.
[23] Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees,
hypocrites! for
ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier matters
of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have done, and not to
leave the other undone.
[24] Ye blind guides, which strain
at a gnat, and swallow a camel.
[25] Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye
make clean the outside of the cup and of the platter, but within they are full
of extortion and excess.
[26] Thou blind Pharisee, cleanse
first that which is within the cup and platter, that the outside
of them may be clean also.
[27] Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites!
for ye are like unto whited
sepulchres,
which indeed appear beautiful outward, but are within full of dead men's bones,
and of all uncleanness.
[28] Even so ye also outwardly appear righteous unto men, but within ye
are full of hypocrisy and iniquity.
[29] Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because
ye build the tombs of the prophets, and garnish the sepulchres of the
righteous,
[30] And say, If we had been in the days of our fathers, we would not
have been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets.
[31] Wherefore ye be
witnesses unto yourselves, that ye are the children of them which killed the
prophets.
[32] Fill ye
up then the measure of your fathers.
[33] Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can
ye escape the damnation of hell?
[34] Wherefore,
behold, I send unto you prophets, and wise men, and scribes: and some of them
ye shall kill and crucify; and some of them shall ye scourge in your
synagogues, and persecute them from city to city:
[35] That upon you may come all the righteous blood shed upon the earth,
from the blood of righteous Abel unto the blood of Zacharias son of Barachias,
whom ye slew between the temple and the altar.
[36] Verily I say unto you, All these things shall come upon this
generation.
[37] O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest
them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children
together, even as a hen gathereth
her chickens under her wings, and ye would not!
[38] Behold, your house is left unto you desolate.
[39] For I say unto you, Ye shall not see me henceforth, till ye shall
say, Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord.
[36] But of that
day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.
[37] But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son
of man be.
[38] For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and
drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe
entered into the ark,
[39] And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall
also the coming of the Son of man be.
[40] Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the
other left.
[41] Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken,
and the other left.
[42] Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.
[43] But know this, that if the goodman of the house had
known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not
have suffered his house to be broken up.
[44] Therefore be
ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh.
[45] Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made
ruler over his household, to give them meat in due season?
[46] Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so
doing.
[47] Verily I say unto you, That he shall make him ruler over all his
goods.
[48] But and if that evil servant shall say in his heart, My lord delayeth
his coming;
[49] And shall begin to smite his fellowservants, and to eat
and drink with the drunken;
[50] The lord of that servant shall come in a day when he looketh
not for him, and in an hour that he is not aware of,
[51] And shall cut him asunder, and appoint him his portion
with the hypocrites: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

Feign - ὑποκρίνομαι – hupokrinomai - hoop-ok-rin'-om-ahee
to decide (speak or act) under a false part, that is, (figuratively) dissemble (pretend)
Pss.17
[1]
Hear the right, O LORD, attend unto my cry, give ear unto my prayer, that goeth
not out of feigned lips.
[1]
But there were false prophets also among
the people, even as there shall be false teachers among
you, who privily
shall bring in damnable heresies, even
denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction.
[2]
And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall
be evil spoken of.
[3] And through covetousness shall they with feigned
words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth
not, and their damnation slumbereth
not.
[4]
For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them down to hell, and
delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto judgment;
[5] And spared not the old world, but saved Noah the eighth person, a
preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood upon the world of the ungodly;
[6] And turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrha into ashes
condemned them with an overthrow, making them an ensample unto those that after
should live ungodly;
[7] And delivered just Lot, vexed with the filthy conversation of the
wicked:
[8] (For that righteous man dwelling among them, in seeing and hearing,
vexed his righteous soul from day to day with their unlawful deeds;)
[9] The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptations, and to reserve the unjust unto the Day of Judgment to be punished:
-------------------------------
Prov.6[19] A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth
discord among brethren.
Prov.11[1] A false balance is abomination to Yehovah: but a
just weight is his delight.
Prov.12[17] He that
speaketh truth sheweth
forth righteousness: but a false witness
deceit.
Prov.14[5] A faithful
witness will not lie: but a false witness
will utter lies.
Prov.17[4] A wicked doer
giveth heed to false lips; and a liar
giveth ear to a naughty tongue.
Prov.19[5] A false witness shall not be unpunished, and he that
speaketh lies shall not escape.
[9]
A false witness shall not be unpunished,
and he that speaketh lies shall perish.
Prov.20[23] Divers
weights are an abomination unto Yehovah; and a false
balance is not good.
Prov.21[28] A false witness shall perish: but the man that heareth
speaketh constantly.
Prov.25[14] Whoso boasteth
himself of a false gift is like clouds
and wind without rain.
[18]
A man that beareth
false witness against his neighbour
is a maul,
and a sword, and a sharp arrow.
Zech.8[17]
And let none of you imagine evil in your hearts against his neighbour; and love no false oath: for all these are things that I hate, saith Yehovah.
I am Yehovah, I change not
2Cor.13 [5] Examine
yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves.
Know ye not your own selves, how that Yeshua the Messiah is in you, except ye be reprobates?
Mal.2 [17]
Ye
have wearied Yehovah with your words.
Yet
ye say, Wherein
have we wearied him
When
ye say, Every
one that doeth evil is good in the sight of Yehovah, and he delighteth in them; or,
Where is the God of judgment?
He is right below
[1] Then shall
the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and
went forth to meet the bridegroom.
[2] And five of them were wise,
and five were foolish.
[3] They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them:
[4] But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.
[5] While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept.
[6] And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh;
go ye out to meet him.
[7] Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps.
[8] And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for
our lamps are gone out.
[9] But the wise answered, saying, Not so; lest there be not
enough for us and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for
yourselves.
[10] And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were
ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut.
[11] Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to
us.
[12] But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not.
[13] Watch
therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man
cometh.
[14] For the kingdom of heaven is as a man travelling into a far
country, who called his own servants, and delivered unto them his goods.
[15] And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another
one; to every man according
to his several ability; and straightway took his journey.
[16] Then he that had received the five talents went and traded with the
same, and made them other five talents.
[17] And likewise he that had received two, he also gained other two.
[18] But he that had received one went and digged in the earth, and
hid his lord's money.
[19] After a long time the lord of those servants cometh, and reckoneth
with them.
[20] And so he that had received five talents came and brought other
five talents, saying, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me five talents: behold, I
have gained beside them five talents more.
[21] His lord
said unto him, Well
done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few
things, I will make thee
ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.
[22] He also that had received two talents came and said, Lord, thou deliveredst
unto me two talents: behold, I have gained two other talents beside them.
[23] His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou
hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many
things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.
[24] Then he which had received the one talent came and said, Lord, I
knew thee
that thou art an hard man, reaping where thou hast not sown, and gathering
where thou hast not strawed:
[25] And I was afraid, and went and hid thy talent in the earth: lo,
there thou hast that is thine.
[26] His lord answered and said unto him, Thou
wicked and slothful servant, thou knewest that I reap where I
sowed not, and gather where I have not strawed:
[27] Thou oughtest
therefore to have put my money to the exchangers, and then at my coming I
should have received mine own with usury.
[28] Take therefore the talent from him, and give it unto him which hath
ten talents.
[29] For unto
every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but from him
that hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath.
[30] And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer
darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
[31] When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with
him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory:
[32] And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them
one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats:
[33] And he shall set
the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left.
[34] Then
shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father,
inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world:
[35] For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty,
and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in:
[36] Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in
prison, and ye came unto me.
[37] Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee
an hungred,
and fed thee? or
thirsty, and gave thee drink?
[38] When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee?
[39] Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee?
[40] And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you,
Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have
done it unto me.
[41] Then shall he say also unto them on the left
hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil
and his angels:
[42] For I was an hungred, and ye gave me no meat: I was
thirsty, and ye gave me no drink:
[43] I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me
not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not.
[44] Then shall they also answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred,
or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not
minister unto thee?
[45] Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you,
Inasmuch as ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me.
[46] And these shall go away into everlasting
punishment:
but the righteous
into life eternal.
Prov.28
[5] Evil men understand not judgment: but they
that seek Yehovah understand all things.
Remember, a gospel without judgment is a lie.
