Torah + Prophets

[GospelS]

"Always treat others as you would like them to treat you; that sums up the teaching of the Torah and the Prophets". Matthew 7:12

The perfect love of the heavenly Father is most reflected in His children when they treat others as they themselves wish to be treated.

Ask yourself whether the action you think is beneficial to others is actually one you would want to receive yourself!

Such actions might just change your interactions for the better and for God's glory!

God bless!

Motives do matter and it's so good to keep 'looking unto Jesus' (Hebrews 12.2).

In theory it's easy, but in practice, it's a lot more harder, in special when your neighbour ( in 99% cases, people from your own blood ) hurts you and treats you in a very bad manner... try to love your neighbour then and see how hard it is.

This is what we are called to do, to love, forgive and spread the liberation to all beings

Matthew 18:21-22

21 Then came Peter to him, and said, Lord, how oft shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? till seven times?

22 Jesus saith unto him, I say not unto thee, Until seven times: but, Until seventy times seven.

Thank-you, @gospels; and yes I posted # 2, above...

PS: the phrase 'the law and the prophets' is also used by Paul in Romans 3.21, all about the great truth of imputed righteousness.

Shows there needs to be a willing heart.

Part of the secret is to keep 'looking unto Jesus' (Hebrews 12.2) and then other things will fall into perspective.
