Forgive, and you will be forgiven. Luke 6:37

Do not judge, and you will not be judged. Do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven. Luke 6:37

When was the last time you were blamed for something you didn't do? Unless you're a hermit, it probably happens pretty often. Friends, family, church members, your teachers, your parents, your boss at work. Jesus talks here about mercy and love for our enemies, and about applying the Golden Rule. None of us wants to be judged or condemned, so we should not judge or condemn others. All of us want to be forgiven and to receive good gifts, so we must forgive and give to others.
