Matthew 25:41-46

We are all so guilty of neglecting those less fortunate, if only by omission.....Father please forgive us for we know not what we do. If we want Christ in our nation then let’s act and vote like Christians when we make our laws and elect our leaders.
 At the very least, these on the “right and left” are believers in Jesus Christ. Everlasting and eternal are used to describe both torment and life, indicating that one will last as long as the other.
Matthew 25:41-46
41 “Then He will also say to those on the left hand, ‘Depart from Me, you cursed, into the everlasting fire prepared for the devil and his angels: 42 for I was hungry and you gave Me no food; I was thirsty and you gave Me no drink; 43 I was a stranger and you did not take Me in, naked and you did not clothe Me, sick and in prison and you did not visit Me.’ 
44 “Then they also will answer Him, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see You hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and did not minister to You?’ 45 Then He will answer them, saying, ‘Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did not do it to one of the least of these, you did not do it to Me.46 And these will go away into everlasting punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.”
