NFCC testing dates scheduled in August Spiritual Guidance Continued From Page 5A you, inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these My brethren, you did it to Me.' "Then He will also say to those on the left hand, 'Depart from Me, you cursed, into the ever- lasting fire prepared for the devil and his angels: for I was hungry and you gave Me no food; I was thirsty and you gave Me no drink; I was a stranger and you did not take Me in, naked and you did not clothe Me, sick and in prison and you did not vis- it Me. "Then they also will answer Him, saying, 'Lord, when did we see You hun- gry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and did not minis- ter to You?' .Then He will answer them, saying, 'As- suredly, I say to you, inas- much as you did not do it to one of the least of these, you did not do it to Me.' And these will go away into everlasting punish- ment, but the righteous into eternal life." (Matt. 25:37-46) (NKJV) We should minister care to the widows: "Pure reli- gion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, to visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world." (James 1:27)(KJV) We should be minister- ing to the children: "But when Jesus saw it, he was much displeased, and said unto them, 'Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God.'" (Mark 10:14)(KJV) Finally we are to spread the Gospel message: "And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, 'All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Go ye there- fore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatso- ever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.'" (Matt. 28:18-20)(KJV) As you read this brief article, please pray and ask the Holy Spirit to guide you into the harvest. The ministry is not just the re- sponsibility of the pastor or evangelist. It is the re- sponsibility of every born again believer to work in the harvest. "The harvest truly is plentiful, but the laborers are few."
