Opening excerpt (first ~120 words) tap to expand
Democratic Senate candidate James Talarico and his denomination, the Presbyterian Church (USA), distort the true meaning of being a Matthew 25 church, which they proudly proclaim that they are and which they follow. The parable of the last judgment is found in Matthew 25 and describes the separation of the sheep and goats based on who fed the hungry, gave drink to the thirsty, clothed the naked, and visited the sick and those who did not.
