    LOVE AND MERCY AS THE PRINCIPLES OF THE LAST JUDGMENT Exegesis of Matt 25: 31— 46, Its Message and Application to Christian Life
    (Tangaza University College, 2005) HOROSIDY, PALTLIN
    his is an exegetical analysis of Matthew 25: 31— 46. It aims at bringing about its message to us so that we may be able to apply it in our Christian lives. It will be based on the last judgment scene or the second coming of Jesus and its message, and the way we should prepare for this event as Christians. At the last judgment scene. Jesus issued a statement, as portrayed by Matthew in the passage mentioned above, that our final judgment will be based on our concern or lack of it to those who are the most vulnerable, marginalized or in need. Today we still have them among us, they still challenge us as during the time of Matthew; What have we done to them in order to help them or to improve their situation, or are we indifferent to their need? Whatever we do or not do to them, we do it or not do it to Jesus himself since they are his representatives. These two statements of Jesus (Matt 25: 40, 45) are still alarming to our ears as Christians today in the twenty-first century
