. THE REWARD FOR THE "OTHER SHEEP". (1) "When the Son of Man arrives in his glory, and all the angels with him, then he will sit down on his glorious throne. And all the nations will be gathered before him, and he will separate people one from another, just as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. And he will put the sheep (1) on his right hand, but the goats (2) on his left. Then the king will say to those on his right, 'Come, you who have been blessed by My Father, inherit the Kingdom prepared for you from the founding of the world. For I became hungry, and you gave me something to eat; I got thirsty and you gave me something to drink. I was a stranger and you received me hospitably; naked, and you clothed me. I fell sick and you looked after me. I was in prison and you came to me… Truly I say to you, To the extent that you did it to one of the least of these my (anointed) brothers, you did it to me.'" (Matt 25:31-36 & 40). THE REWARD FOR THE "GOATS"
OF MANKIND. "'Truly I say to you, 'To the extent that you did not do it to one of these least ones, you did not do it to me.' And these will depart into everlasting cutting-off, but the righteous ones into everlasting life." (Matt 25:45,46).
