a lawyer asks Jesus to test his knowledge, "Master what is the great commandment in the law?" Jesus replied: "Love the Lord your God with all your soul and with all your mind" And then adds, "This is the first great commandment, the second is like it is _ and love your neighbor as yourself stesso_ (Matthew 22 :37-39). I always thought of this commandment as the greatest call to love our neighbor, even as it evolves the sermon of Jesus in the Gospels. but over time observing the behavior of many people, their reactions, even used expressions such as teaching, I realized that the interpretation of this commandment is misunderstood or even distorted. In other words simple and very direct, I get the impression that "Love your neighbor as yourself" is deliberately interpreted as "I do not mind, do not break the boxes, well you do the same." It occurs to me that you do not really know the universality of Jesus, because how can you believe that this commandment could have even a minimal sense of selfishness? In Chapter 6 of Mark, Jesus tells his disciples, warning them they will not have an easy life, but encourages them to rejoice because great will be their prize in the sky and from verse 27: But I say unto you which hear, Love your enemies, do good to them that hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you. What strikes you on one cheek, turn to him the other also, and who takes your coat does not prevent, remove the shirt. Give to everyone who asks you, and who would not let you off your ridomandare. Judge not, and will not be judged, condemn not and will not be condemned, forgive, and you will be forgiven, give and you shall receive ,..........., because the measure with which to measure, will also re-measured you. (Luke 6:27-30, 37-38). I do not think there is a need for a comment, Jesus' words speak for themselves and give off a message of altruism is right to stress. Only Jesus could not stand a category: the famous scribes and Pharisees, because they regarded them as false and hypocritical "blind people to filter out a gnat and swallow a camel" (Matthew 23:24) and even "Woe to you scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites because you are like whitewashed tombs which indeed appear beautiful outside, but inside are full of bones and trash. Even so ye also outwardly appear righteous unto men, but inside you are full of hypocrisy and wickedness. (Matthew 23:27-28). We are close at parties and always expect even unconsciously, feel the magic of Christmas, let us hope that the message of Jesus' love in our hearts really go down like pearls of wisdom and light, and how to use a banal but effectively say, caring for each other, good luck to all!
