HOW OUR ANCESTORS SHARED THEIR POSSESSIONS
MATHEW 25:33-40
For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.
