Whoa,
what do I mean by a crazy title like that!
Don't worry I'll explain, but first you need to read these few verses
from Matthew 25:
35
For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave
me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, 36 I needed clothes and you clothed me,
I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.’
37
“Then the righteous will answer
him, ‘Lord, when did we see you
hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? 38 When did we see you a stranger and
invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? 39 When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?’
40
“The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of
these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’
Judging
by these verses I think it is safe to say that,
"The
way we treat others is the way we treat Jesus"
I mean,
how can someone say they love Jesus with all their heart when they rip a
customer off, mistreat a sibling or treat their parents with disrespect.
The Bible
says that you will know them by their fruits (Matt 7:16)
Just
telling God we love Him is not going to cut the mustard. It is like a husband telling his wife that he
loves her so much, but in reality he is secretly having an affair with someone
else.
Worshiping God in church is a great thing, but if we knowingly treat others wrongly we are
no better than the cheating spouse who says
he loves his wife.
So, what
about you? Are you treating other people
as if they were Jesus?
"Truly
I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters
of mine, you did for me." - Jesus
