Wait for It: The Early Church and Us 8/8

November 23, 2020  /  Katie Hays

Sheep and goats, “You did it unto me.” The “Son of Humanity” so identifies with the small, oppressed, marginalized people of the world that our lives can be assessed by how we have aligned ourselves with respect to them. Think of the gladiator games, where the emperor gave a thumbs up or thumbs down for the life of the competitors. Here, the emperor is replaced by “the least of these my brethren,” collectively informing Jesus the King as to the worthiness of each ovine in the judgment queue. A note: this is a parable, making extensive use of metaphor. It’s not a literal description of a “judgment day,” but it’s an imaginative exercise about an imagined future meant to provoke real action, here and now.
