So how should we treat our fellow brother and sister? The terrible happenings in the gulf coast should make us all think, "How does God expect us to treat those around us?" Jesus said that as we have treated he least of these so we have treated him. I also remember him teaching that there will be those who think that they will make it to heaven, but will be shocked by the reception they receive from their savior. Jesus said that many will say to me in that day Lord, Lord. However, Jesus will reply, "depart from me for I do not know you." They will ask him how that could be and he will tell them because he was naked and they did not clothe him, hungry and did not feed him and in prison and did not visit him. Still dumbfounded, they will ask, "When did we see you in these circumstances?" Jesus will tell them that how they have treated the least of these, so have they treated him.
What a shock for those who thought they were doing God's work by preaching and making this world turn to Christ! Today I believe that there are many Christians in the United States today that are in this situation. They believe that they are on their way to heaven, but would never "lower" themselves take care of the least of us. I hear people say that it is the people's fault for not leaving the city, they should have left when asked. I wonder when I hear this how many of the ones saying this would say they are "Christian?" Do they forget the story of the Good Samaritan and Jesus' own actions of reaching out to the lowest of his time? I hear them say and act out all too often that only those they deem "worthy" will make it to heaven.
Who are these worthy? Do we have to be just like them? Do we all have to learn how to "take care of ourselves," and "pull ourselves up by our bootstraps?" If you listening to Rush and many on the religious right, this is what you must do and anything less is just your fault. Now I do believe that there are those who refuse to take the appropriate advantage of the help they are offered, but they are few. To listen to many of the religious right leaders it sounds like America is just about to fall over the abyss to a terrible socialist state. Could it be that they are pushing the country there by their own refusal to follow the commandant of Christ - to love thy neighbor as thyself?
