Our Lord Jesus winds down His monumental Sermon on the Mount with shorter teachings, but no less important ones. First, He commands us not to be wasteful of His Things, like the graces He gives us. We would have to answer for each grace He gifts us with. Then, the Golden Rule is given. This not at all unique to Christ. Other cultures also follow this principle, although they express it in the negative form. Jesus enunciates it in the positive form. In this way, He tells us to be creative in doing good to the others. In the negative way, one only avoids what is bad. Lastly, Jesus describes the path to Heaven as passing through a narrow gate, indicating its difficulty.
