God’s 10 commandments tell us not to harm others, but when the Lord Jesus came to Earth, He raised the bar even higher and told us to treat others the way we want to be treated. As someone once perceptively put it, it’s not just about ‘do no harm’, but to actually take the initiative to go and do good. You want to be treated like royalty don’t you? So go and be a blessing! Treat others like royalty! And let’s teach our children to do the same.

GOLDEN RULE ~ BIBLE VERSES
Luke 6:31 Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.
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.
Matthew 5:44-46 But I say to you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; that you may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for He makes His sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust. For if you love them which love you, what reward have you?
Luke 6:35 But love your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing again; and your reward shall be great, and you shall be the children of the Highest, for He is kind to the unthankful and to the evil.
Proverbs 25:21-22 If your enemy is hungry, give him bread to eat; and if he is thirsty, give him water to drink, for you shall heap coals of fire upon his head, and the LORD shall reward you.
Romans 12:21 Be not overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
Galatians 6:7 Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.
James 2:8 If ye fulfil the royal law according to the scripture, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself, ye do well.
Matthew 16:27 For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels; and then He shall reward every man according to his works.
Revelation 22:12 And, behold, I come quickly; and My reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be.
Obadiah 1:15 For the day of the LORD is near upon all the heathen: as you have done, it shall be done unto you; your reward shall return upon your own head.

The Golden Rule – colouring (wonderfullymadekids; scroll down) a ruler to colour with the words – The Golden Rule – Be a blessing; the ten commandments tell us to avoid causing harm or pain to others… But Jesus showed us a better way, for as He said, he did not come to abolish the law, but to fulfill them (Matthew 5:17). Jesus made it clear to us that we should go to the heart of the matter— and it is not about doing no harm, but actively DOING GOOD for others that God requires from us… this is what loving others really means, because love seeks to bless others and does not ask for anything in return. For this is the kind of love that we received from God, and if we are connected to that love, then this is the kind of love that we will have for others (and part of the inspiration for this post); free printable
