MORALS AND VIRTUES


Dear One,

What most people consider as morals are really laws, rules and regulations imposed by religion on people, particularly on the people who are nonreligious. Real morals are love, mercy, sympathetic concern, kindness, mercy, providing for family, kind words, kind attitudes and actions. Those are what I consider the really important morals.
Where there is love and respect for others, the moral climate is good whether rules and regulations of religion are being followed or not. Jesus broke some religious laws in order to offer healing and kindness to others.
Love and respect cause others to love, respect and care for others; therefore the moral climate is enhanced. Love does not hurt or injure others, nor does it judge the actions of others as being bad or good.
Love always understands a person's predisposition to obey negative spirits. A man operating in My love will offer a person caught in the web of demons a way out of his problems and his obsessions. He will not judge him.
Morals come from religious laws and regulations.
Virtues come from excellence of character, where My characteristics of love, temperance, mercy, faith, goodness, kindness and patience dwell inside of you when you are My children.
Extending love to others is the highest form of praise that a person can offer to Me.

Love, God
Matthew 7:1-5; Luke 6:37 & 38
