I want you to keep in mind, Jesus the Christ came to reintroduce the Kingdom of God to us. Through that offering of His life on the cross, provides the means by which we could enter into that kingdom. A very critical part of our introduction to the powerful truth of the Kingdom is about our inheritance as children of God. The book of Matthew in God's Constitution, refers to a parable that Jesus introduced which is referring to that inheritance. The parable itself is about judgment and has placed the righteous, pictured as sheep, on His right hand and the unrighteous, pictured as goats, on His left hand.
Please note: Jesus used Himself as King, not a religious individual, but King.
Constitutional Scripture: Matthew 25:34-40 Then the King will say to those on His right hand, ‘Come, you blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world: 35) for I was hungry and you gave Me food; I was thirsty and you gave Me drink; I was a stranger and you took Me in; 36) I was naked and you clothed Me; I was sick and you visited Me; I was in prison and you came to Me.’ 37) “Then the righteous will answer Him, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see You hungry and feed You, or thirsty and give You drink? 38) When did we see You a stranger and take You in, or naked and clothe You? 39) Or when did we see You sick, or in prison, and come to You?’ 40) And the King will answer and say to them, ‘Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these My brethren, you did it to Me.’
Please notice: Jesus referred to Himself as King of a Kingdom, not a religious individual. He also referred to the righteous as brothers, not servants. We are joint heirs with Jesus, sons of God; not servants in the kingdom. Know your place in the Kingdom of God. Know your inheritance.
