2 Chronicles 7:14 KJV
He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the LORD require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God? Micah 6:8 KJV
Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is. 1 John 3:2 KJV
The two greatest commandments are to love the Lord with all your heart and love your neighbor as yourself.
EVERYTHING else fits into those two.
There are not enough TV's in the world to NOT watch or wedding rings to NOT wear or sleeve/dress lengths long enough to fill in the gap if you say or think a mere bad thought about your neighbor!
Which is why I am always asking myself..... Why are there no (or very very few -never heard one myself) fire and brimstone sermons about the subject of love, compassion, and long suffering?

I have standards, but in my Church it isn't preached, but taught, and even then not often.
You will have a greater chance on hearing preached about Christian living and attitude than anything else.

Hearing that makes me feel very good this morning! (seriously)
Sometimes I begin to almost despair when it seems that the golden rule is all but ignored in some churches.
