The 11 Essential Wisdoms of Jesus

1. Forgive them, for they know not what they do.

Luke 23:34

“Don’t forgive* them if they don’t know what they do … because they will do it again. Maybe** forgive them once, only if they know what they do, they immediately stop doing it, they honestly regret it, and they are determined, with all their will, to never, ever do it again.” Yojen T. Veil

*There is one exception to this: the person who committed the deed is crazy (in the medical sense), in which case they should have been locked up, and the people responsible for locking them up and failed to do so are accountable for the crazy person’s actions.

**Maybe, as some acts cannot be forgiven. For example, you cannot forgive someone who raped or killed someone you love, especially your child!

2. You shall know them by their Fruits and their Deeds.

Matthew 7:16

3. It is not what goes into people’s mouth that defiles them, but what comes out of it.

Mark 7:15

4. When you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, so that your giving may be in secret.

Matthew 6:2

“Give to people what they can take, and take from them what they can give” Yojen T. Veil

5. Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, nor cast your pearls before the swine, because they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.

Matthew 7:6

6. Give to Caesar what to Caesar, and to God what to God.

Matthew 22:21

7. Judge not, as not to be judged by God. By your judgments you will be judged and by your measures you will be measured.

Matthew 7:1

8. He who is without sin among you, let him cast the first stone at her.

John 8:7

After everyone left, Jesus stood up and told the woman: "no one wants to condemn you. Neither will I ...”

9. Let your communication be: yes, yes or no, no.

Matthew 5:37

10. No Man can serve two Masters, God and Money.
