So,
25:37 Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we
thee an hungred, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee drink? 25:38 When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee? 25:39 Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came untothee? 25:40 And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto ...[text shortened]...
heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the
heart his mouth speaketh.

Remember Frogstomp, the Bible does not only consist of Matthew 25. Try to look at things from more than one angle.

reply to both of you
when are you going to realize the "faith" he talked about isn't faith as you perceive it. I really have said enough , go back and put His words in the context He meant.
So what do you think Christ meant with these words? C'mon Froggy, cough it up...
How do you believe without faith?

and in some cases He's talking to people that clearly "believe" in the sense you mean it.
