"Will there be only a few saved?" Jesus is asked today. The question reflected the belief of many Jews in Jesus' time that they and they alone were God's "Chosen People". For them that meant that "pagans" and "unbelievers," people who did not observe the Law of Moses, were outcasts to be rejected by God forever. In answer to the person's question, Jesus does not confirm or deny that only a few will be saved. When we do come face to face with God - and hopefully we will -we may be surprised at who is not there. We may even be more surprised at those who are there: people we regarded as "pagans" (Buddhists, Hindus, Muslims), animists, agnostics, even atheists, people of other races we tended to despise, the dregs of society. "People from east and west, from north and south, will come to take their places at the banquet in the Kingdom of God." These people will be in the Kingdom because, whatever labels we gave them, they were at heart loving, caring and sharing people, people who lived their lives for others as Jesus did. These people Jesus will recognise. Let us make sure that he will be able to recognise each of us, too. What will you do today to make sure that Jesus knows you?
