Luke 6:46 And why call ye Me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say.
There was a day I said, ” Lord how do you want me to live / behave?” Very clearly I heard “Proverbs.” I whined, “I don’t understand Proverbs.” Today I love them.
James 4:17 Therefore to him who knows to do good and does not do it, to him it is sin.
Matthew 22:36-40 Teacher, which is the great commandment in the Law? Jesus said to him, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all you soul, and with all your mind. This is the first and great commandment, and the second is like it: you shall love your neighbor as yourself. On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets.”
Romans 13:8-10 Owe no-one any thing except to love one another, for he who loves another has fulfilled the law. For the commandment, you shall not commit adultery, you shall not commit murder, you shall not steal, you shall not bear false witness, you shall not covet, and if there is any other commandment it is summed up in this saying namely, you shall love your neighbor as yourself. Love does no harm to a neighbor: therefore love is the fulfillment of the law
Proverbs is an amazing lesson on caring for others and yourself. If you feel uncomfortable about one of them focus, God may be revealing an area you need change in.
Jesus teachings in the Sermon on the Mount explained in detail how we are to treat others. You will find this in Matthew chapters 5-7.
Lord Jesus without love we are but a clanging symbol. God is love. Lord lead us in seeking You for You are love. Lord help us to do all You have commanded for your Word is good and You are worthy.
In Jesus name amen
