Other Bible verses related to ethics:
- Matthew 5:21-22, 27-28 (NIV), “21 You have heard that it was said to the people long ago, ‘You shall not murder, and anyone who murders will be subject to judgment.’ 22 But I tell you that anyone who is angry with a brother or sister, will be subject to judgment. Again, anyone who says to a brother or sister, ‘Raca,’ is answerable to the court. And anyone who says, ‘You fool!’ will be in danger of the fire of hell… 27 You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall not commit adultery.’ 28 But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart.”
- - Jesus demonstrates that…
- - - Hatred is equal to murder and that
- - - Lust is equal to adultery
- - - Because the inner attitude is the same (the foundation for ‘doing good’ is…)
- Jeremiah 17:9-10, “The heart is deceitful above all things and beyond cure. Who can understand it? I the Lord search the heart and examine the mind, to reward each person according to their conduct, according to what their deeds deserve.”” (NIV)
- - We don't ultimately trust ‘our heart’ for ethics because sin has made our hearts a desperately sick & deceitful thing—
- - - Therefore, we trust what God says!
- Romans 2:14-16, “14 (Indeed, when Gentiles, who do not have the law, do by nature things required by the law, they are a law for themselves, even though they do not have the law. 15 They show that the requirements of the law are written on their hearts, their consciences also bearing witness, and their thoughts sometimes accusing them and at other times even defending them.) 16 This will take place on the day when God judges people’s secrets through Jesus Christ, as my gospel declares.” (NIV)
- - God wrote His law on the hearts & conscience of every human!
