TRUE KINDNESS
And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue;
and to virtue knowledge; And to knowledge temperance; and to
temperance patience; and to patience godliness; And to godliness
brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity.
2 Peter 1:5-7
**************************************************************************
The apostle Paul tells us to "be kind to one another." Peter says to "add brotherly kindness" to the other godly virtues God is developing in us. Living according to God's instruction, following the example of Christ and aided by the Holy Spirit, we produce the wonderful, spiritual fruit of kindness.
Kindness and charity are twins in a way, for how can you have true kindness in your heart, and not be charitable towards your fellow man? As Christians, we must not judge who is and who is not in need of charity . Annie
