PREACHING THE

GOSPEL!”�

“You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbor as yourself… do this, and you will live.” �

Luke 10:27-28 �

“Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.” �

Matthew 25:40 �

The �RISKS�Of Doing JUSTICE �

“Bear each other’s burdens…”  

“Now by chance a priest was going down that road; and when he saw him, he passed by on the other side. So likewise a Levite… But a Samaritan while travelling came near him; and when he saw him, he was moved with pity.” �

Luke 10:31-33 �

The �REASON �To Do JUSTICE �

“For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.” �

John 3:17 �

Some �RECOMMENDATIONS�

For doing JUSTICE �

1.  Choose Someone over Everyone�2.  Choose Witness over Words�3.  Choose Action over Reaction�

“Christianity has been specially advanced through the loving service rendered to strangers, and through their care for the burial of the dead. It is a scandal that that these Galileans care not only for their own poor but for ours as well.” �

Emperor Julian�
