Ch25-5. It Is Our Duty to Preach the Gospel (Matthew 25:31-46)

Ch25-1. Now Is the Time for Those Righteous to Be Awake And Spread the Gospel (Matthew 25:1-13)

There have been so many natural disasters recently that I am fully convinced that we are now living in the age of sorrow and recently Pakistan was struck by a devastating earthquake. Some villages in Guatemala were wiped out by mudslides triggered by a hurricane thereby disappearing without a trace. The devastation was so bad that the authorities stopped trying to recover the victims and instead declared the sites to be public cemeteries. It’s estimated that about 80,000 people died from the earthquake in Pakistan, but the number of victims is expected to grow even more in the coming months, as the afflicted region, Kashmir, is very rugged and mountainous, and the brutal winter there will extract a heavy toll on the people who lost their homes from the earthquake. We also have some partners in Pakistan, and unfortunately, their safety is not known to us yet. We’ll continue to try to get in touch with them, but meanwhile, we should all pray for them.   https://www.bjnewlife.org/  [https://www.bjnewlife.org/] https://youtube.com/@TheNewLifeMission  [https://youtube.com/@TheNewLifeMission] https://www.facebook.com/shin.john.35  [https://www.facebook.com/shin.john.35]

Ch25-2. Those Standing on His Right Hand (Matthew 25:31-46)

Since meeting you on the day of the Lord, I meet you again today, Wednesday, and the time in between seemed so very long. In recent days, I have been very busy preparing the sermon books about the Gospel of Matthew. I am so glad to be meeting you by taking time out of my crowded schedule. God has allowed us a new translator who will be translating our books into English, and because I have to give her materials to translate, I am busy these days. But, I have discovered that she was translating “the gospel of the water and the Spirit” as just “the gospel” according to the American style of translating, and so I have instructed her to correct some expressions.   https://www.bjnewlife.org/  [https://www.bjnewlife.org/] https://youtube.com/@TheNewLifeMission  [https://youtube.com/@TheNewLifeMission] https://www.facebook.com/shin.john.35  [https://www.facebook.com/shin.john.35]

Ch25-3. What Is Done to The Righteous Of the Lord’s Church Is Done to the Lord (Matthew 25:31-46)

Our Lord said that in the last days when He comes to this earth again with His angels, He will sit on His white throne of glory, gather all nations of the earth, and divide them as a shepherd divides the sheep from the goats, placing the sheep on the right and the goats on the left. And He said that He would permit the people on His right hand to inherit the Kingdom prepared for them or, in other words, heaven. The reason that He gives them the reward of Heaven is found in His saying, “For I was hungry and you gave Me food; I was naked and you clothed Me; I was sick and you visited Me.”   https://www.bjnewlife.org/  [https://www.bjnewlife.org/] https://youtube.com/@TheNewLifeMission  [https://youtube.com/@TheNewLifeMission] https://www.facebook.com/shin.john.35  [https://www.facebook.com/shin.john.35]

Ch25-4. The Work for the People In the Image of God Is Indeed Done to God (Matthew 25:31-46)

The Lord said He would come as the King when He comes back to this world. And He said, “All the nations will be gathered before Him, and He will separate them one from another, as a shepherd divides his sheep from the goats. And He will set the sheep on His right hand, but the goats on the left.” And the Lord who is the King says to the righteous on His right hand, “Come, you 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; 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.” https://www.bjnewlife.org/  [https://www.bjnewlife.org/] https://youtube.com/@TheNewLifeMission  [https://youtube.com/@TheNewLifeMission] https://www.facebook.com/shin.john.35  [https://www.facebook.com/shin.john.35]

Ch25-5. It Is Our Duty to Preach the Gospel (Matthew 25:31-46)

The Lord will come someday without fail. This world will be destroyed at the time that God has decided, and a new world will come. Even if you think that this can be said by anyone, I say it again. It is clear that the Lord will come in His time. When He comes, He will speak to us just as it is written in today’s Scripture passage.   https://www.bjnewlife.org/  [https://www.bjnewlife.org/] https://youtube.com/@TheNewLifeMission  [https://youtube.com/@TheNewLifeMission] https://www.facebook.com/shin.john.35  [https://www.facebook.com/shin.john.35]
