David Wilkerson emphasizes the importance of being intimately connected with Christ, which leads to a greater awareness of our responsibility to portray Him to the world. He highlights that on the Day of Judgment, we will be evaluated based on how we expressed Christ's love and compassion, particularly towards the needy. Wilkerson reflects on Jesus' teachings in Matthew 25, which inspire a genuine concern for the poor and a call to action in our lives and ministries. He reminds us that while good works do not save us, they are essential in demonstrating our faith and commitment to God's commands. Ultimately, we are called to engage personally in addressing the needs around us, guided by the Holy Spirit.
