Do Unto Others As You Would Have Them Do Unto You
Luke 6:3, KJV
31 And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise.
32 For if ye love them which love you, what thank have ye? for sinners also love those that love them.
Knowing and doing the things that Jesus teaches about behavior, attitude, and conduct toward others is the pure definition of real Christianity. This implies that solid study and understanding of the Gospels is essential to those who are called and call themselves Christians. In the Gospel of Matthew 7:12 we read, “Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets.” Christians must rid themselves of the natural tendency to live ‘eye for an eye’ life; trying to repay evil for evil. Always remember Romans 12:19-20: “Do not take revenge, my friends, but leave room for God’s wrath, for it is written: ‘It is mine to avenge,’ says the Lord.” On the contrary: “If your enemy is hungry, feed him: If he is thirsty, give him something to drink. In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head.” Jesus is there quoting from Proverbs 25:21-22; “If your enemy is hungry, give him food to eat; if he is thirsty, give him water to drink. In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head, and the Lord will reward you.”
It is difficult to emphasize the level of spiritual maturity needed to live in this manner, but I promise that God’s Word will never fail. I have seen Him do it.
Malachi 3:9-10, New International Version
