If You Love Someone
If You Love Someone
Author: Mark V. Markov
If you love someone
You help that person
If you never wanna help that person
Than you don't love
And if you don't love a brother or sister in Christ
Than you don't love Christ Himself.
For He said you gave me water to drink
When I was thirsty
Saying that with action
They cared and loved
They said when did we do that?
He said, when you did it to the least of my brothers
You did it to me.
This is not a ploy
For anyone to do something for me
It is just a statement.
That if any one of you
Have ever really loved me.
Or even appreciated anything I ever said.
Those that know about me.
You would've helped me.
So now I am left with this truth.
Not one of you,
Has helped me.
If you love someone,
You help that person.
If you never wanna help that person,
Than you don't love
And if you don't love a brother or sister in Christ
Than you don't love Christ Himself.
For He said you gave me water to drink
When I was thirsty
Saying that with action
They cared and loved
They said when did we do that?
He said, when you did it to the least of my brothers
You did it to me...
Matthew 25:34-35
34 Then the King will say to those on his right, 'Come, you who are blessed by my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world.
35 For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me,
Matthew 25:37
37 Then the righteous will answer him, saying, 'Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you drink?
Matthew 25:40
40 And the King will answer them, 'Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, you did it to me.'
