#343: The Power of the Golden Rule

Description

Episode 343 - Show Notes:

Given to us by Jesus himself, this is the Christian ethic. How you would like to be treated, that’s how you should treat others.” Obedience to Jesus’ “Golden Rule” has the power to transform all of our relationships.
It is a call to put God and others first in all that we do. This verse shows us how to truly love our neighbor as we love ourselves.
We must remember this verse is a biblical principle. It is not simply a moralistic statement like…be kind to your neighbor. It is not a pity quote. Like everything else Jesus has taught us in the Sermon on the Mount, it requires the power of God to live out this verse.
Join me in making this our daily prayer. Lord, help us to put you and others first in our live. As we do, we trust that you will meet our needs.

Matthew 7:12 - “So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets.”

Galatians 5:14 - “For the entire law is fulfilled in keeping this one command: “Love your neighbor as yourself.”
