Mt5:42 Do unto others as you would have them do to you.

Facebook has an estimated $96 billlion net worth.In our cultural frenzy of dazzling social media how do you really connect with other people?!In Jesus sermon on the mount Jesus calls for a way of relating to others that completely transcends how we relate on a human level. This is a call to interact with others in a way that reaches the deepest aspect of someone elses life. Each individual has been fashioned in the image of God, and Jesus placed a significant value on human life and potential. He died to restore human worth and dignity due to the loss that sin brought into the world. To embrace the beatitudes creates a reservoir of kingdom rescources to bring into our relationships with others. In John 15:13 Jesus Christ told his most intimate followers that no one has greater love than that someone would lay down his life for his friends.
