This week we will se that the Gospel is made evident in the lives of Christ-followers through meeting the needs of the afflicted in the word.  We will be reading from Matthew 25:31–46.  With the help of pastor Randall, pastor Ron Barker and pastor Danny Newbern we will discover that living the Gospel means reflecting God’s compassion by meeting the needs of the afflicted in the world.  Also, we will evaluate ways in which we might sacrificially give of what we have in order to meet the needs of the ‘least of these’ both in our own context and around the world. If our lives do not reflect radical compassion for the poor, there is reason to question just how effective we will be in declaring the glory of Christ to the ends of the earth. More pointedly, if our lives do not reflect radical compassion for the poor, reason exists to wonder if Christ is really in us at all. “The King will reply, 'I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me.'”  Matthew 25:40
