OF the things Jesus Christ preached and lived,, what is/are your favorite(s).

Mine are the 'golden rule'

Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them


and
"And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn you: go, and sin no more" (John 8:2-11 NKJV).


I try to live treating others with the fairness and honesty I expect and I am relieved to know I have the ability to turn from sins and sin no more.

I would have to agree with you on that 1. Although when i see an injustice or unfairness or even a lie someone tells before me .... the fire burns inside and capping it off is as hard as anything gets for me. Its really hard to treat them with love when the need a swift kik in a manner of speaking. Its a flaw i have fought with forever. Someday he will grant me the grace of that kind of patience. I sometimes say a quick breath prayer but for some reason i dont always think of that before i confront the individual. Growing in his love is without a doubt the most difficult yet the most rewarding experiences of my life. Even the small things seem to have eternal implications. I am so filled with his love and know i am truly blessed that i cant express in words my gratitude to him for his patience with me and my many many sins of the past. I Praise his holy name... May everyone do the same.

I think THIS is a very good way to TRY and live,
yet no-man is above sin...so we can ALL,,only try to avoid sins.

I believe that we should all live to show Jesus Love within US,
to the world, but NOT to try and do that in manners that seem
to be-little others through our giving,or sharing of HIS LOVE.


The LORD"S Ten Commandments justifies my trying to do and be.

As to Jesus teachings,

Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness for they will be filled.
(Matthew 5:6)


"Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you."

-Matthew 7:1-2
