Matthew 25:31-33. Throne of Glory 14 Nov 2023

Mat 25:31 'When the Son of man comes in his glory,
escorted by all the angels,
then he will take his seat on his throne of glory.
32 All nations will be assembled before him
and he will separate people one from another
as the shepherd separates sheep from goats.
33 He will place the sheep on his right hand
and the goats on his left.

Excerpt from THE NEW JERUSALEM BIBLE, copyright (c) 1985 by Darton, Longman & Todd, Ltd. and Doubleday, a division of Penguin Random House, Inc. Reprinted by Permission.

We have reached the 3rd parable of chapter 25. It speaks about Jesus in his glory. All nations and people are gathered. Not the nations will divide the people. Sheep will be separated from goats. It is easy to see the difference between sheep and goats.

I have no idea what a 'throne of glory' looks like. Perhaps the glory illuminates the goodness in people.
No person is totally good or totally bad? Without help, I will never pass the test.

Prayer

Jesus, I am not worthy, please have mercy on me.
