Before the American election last fall, a group of Christians founded a PAC they named Matthew 25 Network. Its stated purpose: to elect and promote candidates who share our values through grassroots mobilization, raising our voices in the media, and paid advertising.
It is interesting to compare what the crucial issues are to the different Christian groups discussing politics.
Another point: Many contemporary Christians do not spend much time discussing judgment. Matthew is writing something scary here. "You help the poor or you'll end up in hell."
Which were you today--a sheep or a goat?
Lectio Divina: Matthew 25:37-40
