Theme: THE GOLDEN RULE

Text: “Thou shalt not avenge, nor bear any grudge against the children of thy people, but thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself: I am the LORD.” – Leviticus 19:18.

Comment: From a spiritual standpoint, it is impossible for one to claim to love God sincerely and yet habour ill-will or hatred against one another. (1 John 4:20, 21) Certainly, it is when we realise and appreciate the fact that we are created in the image and likeness of God and that we are accountable to God Almighty our Maker, that we can strive to do His will and cultivate high regard for fellow humans. Apostle Paul warned: “Recompense to no man evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all men. If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men. Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord…” Romans 12:17-21.
