About
doing for others…
Woe
to you when all men speak well of you, for that is how their fathers treated the
false prophets. "But I tell you who hear me: Love your enemies, do good to
those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you.
† Do to others as you would have them do to you. "If you love those who
love you, what credit is that to you? Even 'sinners' love those who love them.
And if you do good to those who are good to you, what credit is that to you?
Even 'sinners' do that. And if you lend to those from whom you expect repayment,
what credit is that to you? Even 'sinners' lend to 'sinners,' expecting to be
repaid in full. But love your enemies, do good to them, and lend to them without
expecting to get anything back. Then your reward will be great, and you will be
sons of the Most High, because he is kind to the ungrateful and wicked. Be
merciful, just as your Father is merciful. † For in the same way you judge
others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to
you. †
