The verse above is known as the "Golden Rule" a rule that Jesus gives us on how to treat other people.

   Keep in mind that forgiveness is a character of God and His Son Jesus

   .

   That Jesus even forgave the authorities and the soldiers who facilitated the process up to the final step which LED to his crucifixion on Cavalry. You will realize how painful the experience of Jesus is with the nails pierced right through the palms and the nerves of his hands and right through the soles and nerves of his feet. Jesus even forgave the robbers who were also posted to their own respective crosses on the left and right of Jesus. You can see Jesus' kind heart when he forgives people who have forsaken him, but still He knows that they have their own place in heaven. So, there is no reason why you should not be a forgiving person yourself. Actually, it is bad for your heart and overall health if you keep your hatred and animosity to yourself. Let these bad emotions out by forgiving completely and sincerely, and you will understand the character of God.

   1. Other verses that explain this are John said: "If someone says, 'I love God,' and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen, how can he love God whom he has not seen (1 John 4:20, NKJV)
   2. James said: "My brethren, do not hold the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory, with partiality. For if there should come into your assembly a man with gold rings, in fine apparel, and there should also come in a poor man in filthy clothes, and you pay attention to the one wearing the fine clothes and say to him, 'You sit here in a good place,' and say to the poor man, 'You stand there,' or 'Sit here at my footstool,' have you not shown partiality among yourselves, and become judges with evil thoughts" (James 2:1 - 4)
   3. James said: "Listen, my beloved brethren: Has God not chosen the poor of this world to be rich in faith and heirs of the kingdom which He promised to those who love Him? But you have dishonored the poor man. Do not the rich oppress you and drag you into the courts? Do they not blaspheme that noble name by which you are called" (James 2: 5 - 7).

   Realize that god is explaining how you can love him but cannot completely understand and love him until you take the step to love your neighbors also in the same sense

   .

   Hate should not live in your heart about no fellow man, which is not to say that we should like the all but love them the same way that god loves his children who do not do right all the time just as you may also be a lost sheep at times.

   Know that in everything we do we will have to face the judgment of god and the bible speaks of these things that we will be judged on pertaining to how we treat our fellow neighbor

   .

    

   1. James 2:12. Speak and act as those who are going to be judged by the law that gives freedom, 13 because judgment without mercy will be shown to anyone who has not been merciful. Mercy triumphs over judgment.
   2. John 5:24. "Very truly I tell you, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life and will not be judged but has crossed over from death to life.
   3. Romans 8:1. Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus,
   4. Matthew 12:36. But I tell you that everyone will have to give account on the day of judgment for every empty word they have spoken.
   5. Jeremiah 31:34. No longer will they teach their neighbor, or say to one another, 'Know the Lord,' because they will all know me, from the least of them to the greatest," declares the Lord. "For I will forgive their wickedness and will remember their sins no more." Hebrews 10:17. "Their sins and lawless acts I will remember no more."

These verses are told to let us know that we will be judged for the things we say, act and do unto others on the day of judgment. As Christians we need to remember these things and how to treat others in everyday life for one day we will be judged on the things that we have done and no one will be there on our judgment day but us (as an individual) so it is important that we treat our neighbors with respect for this is the way that god intended and how god acts towards us all regardless of what we have done and continue to do everyday.
