Reflection Questions (Applying the Gospel to Our Lives):

1. If someone looked at your life, what evidence would they see that your faith in Christ is genuine?

2. According to this passage, what distinguishes the sheep from the goats? How do their actions reveal the reality (or absence) of genuine faith?

3. Why is it important to remember that acts of mercy do not earn salvation but flow from a heart transformed by God's grace (cf. Eph. 2:8–10; James 2:14–17)?

4. Both the sheep and the goats seem surprised by the King's verdict. What does this teach us about the difference between outward religion and a life genuinely changed by the gospel?

5. Are there opportunities God has given you to care for those who are hungry, thirsty, lonely, sick, or in need? What is one practical way you can reflect Christ's compassion this week?
