forgiving

Core Interrelations


CONSOLIDATION:
Do to others as you would have them do to you. Then your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High.

Give, and a good overflowing measure will be poured back to you.

When you start serving others and have your relationships with others inline with the principles in spite of all the problems that come up, and this involves A LOT of forgiving and mercy (these are the fruits of true believing), then you can ask what you wish from the Father, and it is yours.

Be merciful to people and do not judge or condemn them; forgive them.

Don't cause others to sin; there is a heavy price to pay. Forgive your brother when he repents. Humble serving is our duty.

We worship from start to end and along the way we overcome our frail harmful nature, after applying God's will to our life; giving up the worldly things and forgiving each other.



Divorcing your spouse and then marrying someone else is adultery (unless the one you divorced was maritally unfaithful, see MT 19:9); don't be insensitive to (hard-hearted toward) what Jesus says.

settling problems

Core Interrelations


CONSOLIDATION:
Love your neighbor, being careful not to offend him.

Show the childlike humility that leads one into true believing and greatness.

If we love our unbelieving neighbors we'll ask God to heal them and He'll take action on their behalf. Better have some faith because they are going to need it.

Whoever is not against Jesus and his followers is for them.

All of us will go through difficult trials, and we must retain our stubborn persistence in sticking to the principles. But we should be at peace with others who are for Jesus.

Though applying the principles is so difficult with the hatred people sometimes inflict on us and trying not to retaliate with that same hatred, Jesus brings us life.

Only Jesus our Savior can distract us from our worldly pursuits; He provides.

Perhaps one of the best ways to overcome our harmful desires is through serving others. Jesus served us by coming to find us and save us when we had gone astray.

When you start serving others and have your relationships with others inline with the principles in spite of all the problems that come up, and this involves A LOT of forgiving and mercy (these are the fruits of true believing), then you can ask what you wish from the Father, and it is yours.



Relationship problems are caused by the bad things we do from the harmfulness in our hearts.

Once you start judging, you're going to have relationship problems.

You may really have to get a handle on the harmfulness in your heart in order not to get divorced.

Looking at women lustfully is adulterous and leads you into hell.

Some unbelievers may attack you when you tell them what you most highly value.

Unbelievers tend to cause believers to sin (do harmful things); they better take as strong a measure as possible to stop or they will be sorry.
