So many Christians are afraid. We are afraid to die. We are afraid we might not go to heaven. We are afraid to go to hell.
Here is a step by step guide so we won't go to hell.
First, feed the hungry.
Second, give drink to the thirsty.
Third, welcome the stranger.
Fourth, clothe the naked.
Fifth, look after the sick.
Sixth, visit those who are imprisoned.
We can will find these instructions in Matthew 25. And if we do not do these? The passage continues with Jesus saying, "Then you will go away to eternal punishment!"
