What are you doing for others?
Jesus said,
"So in everything,
do to others what you would have them do to you,
for this sums up the Law and the Prophets"
Matthew 7:12
While I know the Talmud is a Jewish book and not Christian it presents an interesting scenario. It states,
"When a man appears before the Throne of Judgment, the first question he is asked is not, "Have you believed in God?" Or "Have you prayed and observed the ritual?
"He is asked: "have you dealt honourably and faithfully in all your dealings with your fellow men?" The Talmud
The great American civil rights leader once said,
“Life's most persistent and urgent question is, 'What are you doing for others?'” Martin Luther King, Jr.
So the question if you are a Christian becomes, what are you doing for others? At the very least are you doing what Jesus said,
"So in everything,
do to others what you would have them do to you,
for this sums up the Law and the Prophets"
Matthew 7:12.
Please think about it.
