So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets.
Good things really do come in small packages, and Matthew 7:12 is a prime example. It’s short, simple, and something most of us learned in childhood: treat others the way you want to be treated. But while it may be easy to understand, living out the Golden Rule daily is a lot harder than it seems. There’s a reason Jesus said this principle sums up the Law and the Prophets — it’s powerful enough to change lives.
