If you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? Even sinners love those who love them. And if you do good to those who are good to you, what credit is that to you? Even sinners do that. And if you lend to those from whom you expect repayment, what credit is that to you? Even sinners lend to sinners, expecting to be repaid in full. But love your enemies, do good to them, and lend to them without expecting to get anything back. Then your reward will be great, and you will be children of the Most High, because he is kind to the ungrateful and wicked. Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful.

“Do not judge, and you will not be judged. Do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven. Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.”

He also told them this parable: “Can the blind lead the blind? Will they not both fall into a pit? The student is not above the teacher, but everyone who is fully trained will be like their teacher.

“Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother’s eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? How can you say to your brother, ‘Brother, let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when you yourself fail to see the plank in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye.

To love without standard is to hate the self in service of those who don't deserve you, but of course a christian would do that. It's your virtue to suffer. That's what your credit is.

You don't deserve God or life yet God gives it to you and offers you the opportunity to be with him. If God is so generous with you then who are you to not be generous with others?

Generosity and altruism are not the same thing. Giving something to someone because it suits your values is generosity. Altruism means your only moral credit is that which you sacrifice, with nothing in return, not even your own moral satisfaction. The most altruist act, the crucifiction of Jesus, is him dying for the crimes others have committed. He is a victim of a violent mob.

Sounds good on paper, just like communism.
It makes feel all fluffy inside, but in reality criminals should be judged and thrown into prisons otherwise all hell will break loose.

Good to know someone else understands Sermon on the Plain.

Why??????

They deny fundamental doctrines of the Christian religion and teach various deadly heresies which they thrust forward to be believed on pain of a curse.
