COMMANDS OF CHRIST
CHAPTER ONE
"DO
GOOD AND AVOID EVIL."
The
first step Christ required of the young man was the avoidance of
what makes men evil: "Do not steal, kill, commit adultery, bear
false witness." To avoid evil, as God enumerated it,
however, is not enough for salvation; you must also do good
to attain eternal life. Christ has also enumerated the good we must
do.
So, not only must we avoid
murdering our neighbor (avoid evil), we must also help preserve the
life of our starving neighbor (do good).
