What does the Gospel teach about how we should treat others?
Answered in 1 source
The Gospel teaches us to treat others with compassion, love, and humility, as exemplified by Christ's own life and ministry.
The Gospel presents a radical approach to how we treat others, emphasizing love and compassion over judgment. Jesus exemplified this by reaching out to those marginalized by society, showing them kindness without condoning their sin. In John 8, when faced with the woman caught in adultery, He did not condemn her but instructed her to 'go and sin no more.' This mirrors our call as Christians to reflect Christ's heart of mercy. We are to share the truth of the Gospel with sincerity, kindness, and a recognition of our own need for grace. Our behavior should not create obstacles for others to come to Christ but should draw them in with the same grace we've received.
