THE GOLDEN RULE.


whatsoever We would that men should |
do unto you, even SO do we also unto |
them; for this is the law and the pro-
phets." Matt 7: IL.
Verses Is Do not try to make |
others right until, first, you are right
yourself.
Verse g. BE intelligent in efforts to
make others right
Verses rs Goodwill answer the soul
that honestly comes after him.
Verses OIL. IuSrre'i:u. Men are
good to their children. though men ofe
also sinful. Is not the holy God better
than men?
Verse II. The measure OF human
actions. As ye would, SO do ye.
MORE CAREFUL STUDY.
vs.. I-2 Judge not" This is not
aimed at courts, or persons appointed
for the special duty 1t is aimed at in
dividua censorsiousness. We pass
judgment on people more than we are
aware "Hypocrite," 'sneak," rim-
poster" liar" CRATER" and almost
numberless such words fall from our
lips
Ii is a bad habit 1t makes one un
lovely. Such is an enemy to friend
ship. Better to see good in others
than to sec bad. Better to be forbear-
ing than censorious God is the Judge.
Leave character to him. If this one
principle could go into action at once
everywhere, this would be very happy
world.
Nss. 3-5. These are the mote and
beam verses. The language is figura-
tive Mote means little speck.
Beam mcays something larger. But
the three words EYE mote" and
beam mean lie in which sins great
and small are manifest.
Why talk about the sin OF another
man when you may be greater sim
ner? Why reprove a man for lying,
when you are a blasphemer? Why try
to reform poor man who drinks beer
in a saloon. when you drink cham
payne in your Office?
Get right first; right with God, right
with men, right with yourself. No
man with speck as big as a pin
point in his eye can see clearly to get
arything out OF another's eye. No man
known to indulge himself in sin can
help reform another. Get right first.
vs.. E. And there are some people
ipr who NIT is idle to work at all.

is a sort OF food right for them. But

use.
