“But to you who are listening I say: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, 28 bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you. 29 If someone slaps you on one cheek, turn to them the other also. If someone takes your coat, do not withhold your shirt from them. 30 Give to everyone who asks you, and if anyone takes what belongs to you, do not demand it back. 31 Do to others as you would have them do to you.

32 “If you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? Even sinners love those who love them. 33 And if you do good to those who are good to you, what credit is that to you? Even sinners do that. 34 And if you lend to those from whom you expect repayment, what credit is that to you? Even sinners lend to sinners, expecting to be repaid in full. 35 But love your enemies, do good to them, and lend to them without expecting to get anything back. Then your reward will be great, and you will be children of the Most High, because he is kind to the ungrateful and wicked. 36 Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful.

The Golden Rule teaches us a Basic Principle to understand love towards others 👥♥️. Treat others as you would like others to treat you . First of all, to achieve this we must walk in LOVE, And above all things put on love, which is the perfect bond (Colossians 3:14) Because love does not harm others, so the fulfillment of the law is love. (Romans 13:10)

📝 * We must love our enemies *, knowing that this is difficult, let's remember that it is not with human love, but with the _ love of God in us _ (1John 4:12)

📝Do good to those who hate you🤝; bless those who curse you, and pray for those who slander you. To the one who strikes you on one cheek, present him also the other; and whoever takes your cloak, do not even deny him the tunic. To anyone who asks you, give; and whoever takes what is yours, do not ask him to return it to you. If God loves us being imperfect, who are we not to love someone who makes us "a bad gesture or something that goes against us"? (1 John 4:11) We cannot repay evil for evil, but overcome evil with good, adverse situations with brothers and enemies is left in the hands of God, because He helps us (Romans 12:17- twenty-one)

🔑 And as you want men to do with you, so do you with them.

📝 _ We do nothing extraordinary by loving those who love us, doing good to those who do good to us, lending to those who lend us (Luke 6:32-34) _. Because everyone seeks his own, not what belongs to Jesus Christ (Philippians 2:21). Love is not what we know humanly, it goes beyond what we imagine and the LORD establishes it in his word many times.

✔️ Love your enemies, and do good, and lend, expecting nothing from it; and your reward will be great, and you will be children of the Most High; because he is kind to the ungrateful and wicked. So be merciful, just as your Father is merciful. (Luke 6:35-36)

📢 Do nothing out of strife or vainglory; rather with humility, each one estimating the others as superior to himself; not looking each one for his own, but each one also for what belongs to the others.
Philippians 2:3-4

📢 And whatever you do, do it from the heart, as for the Lord and not for men; knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance, because you serve Christ the Lord.
Colossians 3:23-24🤍🕊️

GOD BLESS YOU ALL
