    In Matthew 25 Jesus gives us His only picture of the final judgment. In the parable of the Sheep and the Goats those who are the "blessed" ones are those who loved the least of these in society.

    Bad things do happen to good people. In Matthew 10, Jesus warns the disciples what will happen to them on their mission and then he reminds them that they were, are, and will be precious to God!

    It is clearly in our nature to rate and rank others. When Jesus tells us today that we are of more value than sparrows, we’re probably not surprised, but we may wonder about the hierarchy of creation. We’re worth more than sparrows, and sparrows are certainly worth more than ...read more
