‘We enter God’s Kingdom through the door of humble service'
Written by Uganda Episcopal Conference
We will be judged according to love 'given or denied'
What’s more, “He thus indicates the criterion of the judgement: it will be made on the basis of concrete love given or denied to these persons, because He Himself, the judge, is present in each one of them.”
Quoting from the Gospel reading, the Pope recalled that Jesus says “what you did not do for one of these least ones, you did not do for me.”
“We will be judged on love, not on feelings, no: on works, on compassion that becomes nearness and kind help,” he said.
At the end of the world, Pope Francis explained, “the Lord will inspect the flock, and he will do so not only from the perspective of the shepherd, but also from the perspective of the sheep, with whom He has identified Himself.”
