1 | Do most live by Matthew 7:12? | Bible general Archive 3 | Gregory Thomas, Jr. | 177458 | ||
As a preschooler I was taught the Golden Rule which is a paraphrase of Matthew 7:12. In anguish I would like to state I do not understand how too often I have been treated in a way that I can not imagine someone else would want to be treated. This is by institutions, people in positions of responsibility, and strangers. How do I go about understanding this? Do I assume that maybe most people were not taught this at so young of an age and are not established in this way of living? | ||||||
2 | Do most live by Matthew 7:12? | Bible general Archive 3 | CDBJ | 177459 | ||
Hi GTR and welcome to the forum, I found the same thing as you found in that verse. Matthew 7:12 Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets. I’ve learned that the Christian way of life is actually a supernatural way of life and it can’t be accomplished in the energy of the flesh; this is due to the fact that we all have an old sin nature. This old nature residing in us has dooming us for destruction. 1 Cor. 15:22 For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive. The Bible, along with its truths, and the way to carry them out, where always very nebulas and abstruse to my way of thinking. But there came a day when I had an actual experience with the living author of the Bible. From that point on, the Bible started making sense to me. The Lord sure can open one’s understanding of the Bible, if they really want to know the truth that it contains, but the key to the Bible resides in one very large portions of truth that must be understood first. John 6:45 (A) It is written in the prophets, And they shall be all taught of God. Understanding the Bible is kind of like doing a math problem, once one knows the formula it’s easy. Have you come to that point yet in your spiritual understanding or are you still working on that part? Have fun and enjoy the forum, CDBJ |
