Matthew 7:12
So whatever you wish that others would do to you, do also to them, for this is the Law and the Prophets.
……
What is the crux of the “Golden Rule”?
Answer: Consideration of others.
……
Therefore, how do I know if I am fulfilling the Law and the Prophets?
1) Am I putting others’ interests before my own? (Philipp. 2:1-5)
2) Do I energize others or drain them? Do they enjoy being in my presence, because I am a life-giver, or do they avoid me, because I’m a life-leech?
……
Being considerate, life-giving people opens the door for us to proclaim a crucial, life-giving gospel.
Geez! Why don’t you just punch me in the nose - it would hurt less!
Preach it, babe!
