His Life: A Complete Story in the Words of the Four Gospels
Barton, William E. (William Eleazar)
Jesus Christ -- Biography
"But when the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the angels
with him, then shall he sit on the throne of his glory: and before
him shall be gathered all the nations: and he shall separate them one
from another, as the shepherd separateth the sheep from the goats; and
he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left.
Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, 'Come, ye blessed
of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation
of the world: for I was hungry, and ye gave me to eat; I was thirsty,
and ye gave me drink; I was a stranger, and ye took me in; naked, and
ye clothed me; I was sick, and ye visited me; I was in prison, and ye
came unto me.'
"Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, 'Lord, when saw we thee
hungry, and fed thee? or athirst, and gave thee drink? And when saw we
thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee? And
when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee?' And the King
shall answer and say unto them, 'Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye
did it unto one of these my children, even these least, ye did it unto
me.'
"Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, 'Depart from me,
ye cursed, into the eternal fire which is prepared for the devil and
his angels: for I was hungry, and ye did not give me to eat; I was
thirsty, and ye gave me no drink; I was a stranger, and ye took me not
in; naked, and ye clothed me not; sick, and in prison, and ye visited
me not.' Then shall they also answer, saying, 'Lord, when saw we thee
hungry, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison,
and did not minister unto thee?' Then shall he answer them, saying,
'Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it not unto one of these
least, ye did it not unto me.' And these shall go away into eternal
punishment: but the righteous into eternal life."
THE CONSPIRACY AGAINST JESUS.
And it came to pass, when Jesus had finished all these words, he said
unto his disciples, "Ye know that after two days the passover cometh,
and the Son of man is delivered up to be crucified."
Then were gathered together the chief priests, the elders of the
people, unto the court of the high priest, who was called Caiaphas;
and they took counsel together that they might take Jesus by subtlety,
and kill him. But they said, "Not during the feast, lest a tumult
arise among the people."
And Satan entered into Judas, who was called Iscariot, being of the
number of the twelve. And he went away and communed with the chief
priests and captains, how he might deliver him unto them. And they
were glad, and they weighed unto him thirty pieces of silver. And from
that time he sought opportunity to deliver him unto them in the
absence of the multitude.
WEDNESDAY--THE DAY OF RETIREMENT
[There is no record of the events of this day. Jesus spent it in
retirement, almost certainly in the home of his friends at Bethany.]
THURSDAY--THE DAY OF FELLOWSHIP
