Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law of the prophets (Matthew 7:12).
Here in the sublime precept that we call the Golden Rule, Jesus reiterates that great Law in a concise summing up. This repetition follows upon his wonderful statement of the fatherhood of God. The underlying explanation for the existence of the great law is the fact that we are fundamentally all parts of the Great Mind. Because we are all ultimately one, to hurt another is really to hurt oneself, and to help another is really to help oneself. The fatherhood of God compels us to accept the brotherhood of man, and spiritually, brotherhood is unity.
Brothers and sisters, there is no true separation between God and us or between each human. Separation is contrary to God’s law and is is what we understand as sin. Separation form God and separation from each other are illusions that enslave us to our perceptions and self-centered deceptions.
When we fully grasp this truth, we will be one with God and each other in our minds, as we are in God’s reality. Expression of this reality will be demonstrated in how we think and feel about others; and how we treat them. When we treat others as we would like to be treated, then our internal and external realities will reflect God’s love and will enlighten all we touch.
Touching unity,
