“I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, I was naked and you clothed me, I was sick and you came to me. I was in prison and you visited me” (Matthew 25:35-36).

“I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, I was naked and you clothed me, I was sick and you came to me. I was in prison and you visited me” (Matthew 25:35-36).

FRiend, you haven't a clue as to Who you are quoting. Jesus is speaking about the End Times and this comes from the Olivet Discourse, the last of 5 discourses.

"When the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, he will sit on his throne in heavenly glory. 32 All the nations will be gathered before him, and he will separate the people one from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. 33 He will put the sheep on his right and the goats on his left.

34 "Then the King will say to those on his right, 'Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance, the kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world. 35 For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, 36 I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.'

Next time, quote in context. Better yet, buy yourself a Bible so you know what you are talking about. This passage has everything to do with serving the Son of God and NOTHING to do with claiming evil men are "misunderstood".
