MASS INDOCTRINATION SESSION DAY 7
From the first day up till date, I have fed myself a lot of doctrines of Christ. The problem here now is to receive the grace to practice these doctrines that I have learnt. Nevertheless, I hope I get the grace I seek.
It is sad to see that it is difficult to see love within our brothers and sisters. Some say that they love their brothers and sisters but they do not put in actions and efforts to practicalize this love.
The Bible has a lot to say on this matter. Want to know? Then read on.
The primary doctrine in the church is love. When you love you brother, you must be protective of him, you must not be jealous of his success, you will always want to see him win. You will care for him, give him food and water when he is hungry and thirsty respectively.
You should love your neighbor as you love yourself, also pray for your enemies. Yes, the Lord said that our love should be extended even to our enemies.
Let brotherly love continue. This brotherly love should not continue for a minute, an hour, a day, or a month, however, it should continue and last forever. But first, you have to love the Lord your God first.
Honor all men, and do good to everyone. If you love a person, you will always want to see them grow.
When a parents honor their children, they respect the rights of their children.
Honor everyone including your servant. Respect is supposed to be reciprocated and not just one-sided. As a master or a parent you should not expect to be respected alone. You should respect your children. Masters respect your servants as well.
You should respect the authorities upon you, when they tell you to pay taxes, then you should go ahead and do so. Submit yourself to authority
In the church we are not rebels against the government, we support their good deeds. We are prohibited to partake in movements that goes against the government
