What We Owe Others

Justice is the virtue where we give to God and others what we owe them. The clearest expression of justice is to live the Golden Rule

Always treat others as you would like them to treat you.

The Kingdom of God is a Kingdom of Justice and Love.

Those who want to enter this kingdom will be assessed according to the only Rule in the Kingdom – the Golden Rule.

If Christ the King would come today, I would not measure up.

But that is ok because hopefully he is giving me more time.

But I must not delay, must not put it off. I need to take stock of my life, examine the way I think, feel and act and make the necessary effort to make the Golden Rule my standard way of living.

How would you measure up if the King of Justice came to you today?
