Whatever You Do Onto You Do To Me.

Jola Ajelabi

In 2 Samuel 12:7-10, the prophet Nathan confronts King David for his grave sins, particularly his adultery with Bathsheba and the murder of her husband Uriah. Nathan delivers a poignant message from God, emphasizing the consequences of David's actions and how they have offended God Himself. This passage underscores a profound moral principle: "Whatever you do unto others, you do unto Me."

This concept extends beyond the immediate consequences of David's actions to a broader ethical truth: our treatment of others reflects our relationship with God. It implies that every action, whether good or bad, has a spiritual dimension. When we harm or mistreat others, we are not only violating their rights but also dishonoring our relationship with God, who created and loves each person.

This passage challenges us to consider the impact of our choices on others and to recognize that our moral responsibility extends beyond human relationships to our accountability before God. It calls us to empathy, justice, and compassion in all our interactions, recognizing that how we treat others is a reflection of our reverence for the divine presence within each person. Thus, by honoring and respecting others, we also honor and respect God Himself.
