Matt. 14-16
Jesus told His disciples that there was a day coming when they would be rewarded for what they had done, their deeds, their actions, their works.
Good works ARE important. They don’t merit salvation but to a person already saved by the blood of Jesus they will qualify for rewards from God.
What kind of reward do we qualify for? While we still have time, let’s be about our Heavenly Father’s business.
Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?’ “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.’ Matt. 25:37-40
