A few weeks back I was reading Luke 6:27-45 and found this really good list on my Bible's footnotes. This is just straight from my Scofield Study Bible. I can't improve more on this one so I'm just going to type it word for word.
HOW TO TREAT OTHERS
Tell the truth when testifying about your neighbor. Exodus 20:16
Do no covet anything that belongs to your neighbor. Exodus 20:17
Love your neighbor as yourself. Leviticus 19:18
Don't move your neighbor's boundary marker. Deuteronomy 27:17
Don't take your neighbor to court. Proverbs 25:8
Don't visit your neighbor too often. Proverbs 25:17
If someone forces you to go one mile, go two. Matthew 5:41
Pray for those who persecute you. Matthew 5:44
Do good to those who hate you. Matthew 5:44
Love your enemies. Luke 6:27
Bless those who curse you. Luke 6:28
If someone takes your cloak, give your tunic too. Luke 6:29
Give to everyone who asks of you. Luke 6:30
Lend to others and don't expect anything back. Luke 6:35
Don't judge. Luke 6:37
Don't be a stumbling block to others. Romans 14:13
I found myself feeling guilty for NOT doing most of what's on the list. The Holy Spirit gave me a new light to that Luke 6 passage as I was reading it that breezy, dewy morning. It is nothing but Jesus' commands for ME, as a child of God, so that I may show HIS love to others.
