“‘I was in prison and you came to Me.’ …Then the righteous will answer Him, saying, ‘Lord,

when …did we see You …in prison, and come to You?’ And the King will answer and say to them,

‘Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these My brethren, you did it

unto Me.’” Matthew 25:36‐40
