FOPO Part-3 Reflect The King
Reflecting the King: Living the Golden Rule ... In a world that often feels divided and chaotic, how can we as believers stand firm in our faith and effectively share the love of Christ? Many of us struggle with the fear of rejection, hesitating to speak up or stand out. But what if we could break free from that fear and truly reflect the King we serve? The foundation for how we reflect Christ is found in His Golden Rule: "In everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets" (Matthew 7:12).
Jesus expands on this principle in Luke 6:31-38, giving us a blueprint for kingdom living:
1. Love others – even those who don't love you back
2. Do good – not just to those who do good to you
3. Be helpful – lend freely without expecting anything in return
4. Be merciful – just as our Father is merciful
5. Don't judge or condemn others
6. Forgive and pardon freely
7. Give generously – "For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you"
