PAY IT FORWARD
= an obligation to do three
good deeds for others in response to a good deed that
one receives. Such good deeds should accomplish things
that the other person cannot accomplish on their own.
In this way, the practice of helping one another can
spread geometrically through society, at a ratio of
three to one, creating a social movement with an impact
of making the world a better place.

We will come back to the other PE’s later in the lesson.
POINT: Christians believe they have a moral duty to help others because of the ‘Golden
Rule’, this means…
to treat people how you would like to be treated, ‘do to others as you would have
them do to you’.
EXAMPLE: To put this into practice Christians should…
• look at policies and see how they will affect other people and see if they would be
happy being treated that way e.g. a party wants to cut benefits for the disabled.
• If someone was lonely, or excluded in some kind of way (including groups within
society) they will welcome them; the Church should welcome all members within a
society.
• Christians will give to charity and help those who go hungry or are homeless as they
would hope to be helped in the same situation.
When Jesus was with the crowd, He told them a parable about the
sheep and goats. Jesus said, “In the end times, God will sit on His
throne with all His glory and judge the people.
Everyone will stand before God, and He will judge them one by
one. God will separate the sheep to His right side and the goats to
His left side.
Then Son of Man will says to those on His right side, 'Come, you
who are being blessed. You give me water to drink when I am
thirsty.
You give me food to eat when I am hungry.
When I was ill, you care for me by paying me a visit. When I have
no clothes to wear, you give me a clothes to put on.
When I was locked up in the prison cell, you visited me.'
The righteous will say to Him,’ When did we give you food when
you are hungry? When were you ill that we pay you a visit? When
did you have no clothes to wear that we give you a clothes to
wear? When did we pay you a visit when you are in the prison?’
The son of Man answered,’ Whenever you care for one of my
followers, you are doing it for Me.’
Then He will say to those on His left side, 'Go away from Me!
When I was hungry, you didn’t give me any food to eat.
When I was thirsty, you didn’t give me any water to drink.
When I am naked and have no clothes to wear, you didn’t give me
clothes to put on.
When I was at the prison, you didn’t pay me a visit.
When I fell sick, you didn’t pay me a visit.'
The righteous ones received eternal life but those who are sinners
and did not help Me at all will go to hell. Therefore, anything that
you do for one of my followers, you are doing it for me.”

Abel kills his brother Cain. God asks him where Abel
is and Cain replies with the quote ‘Am I my brothers
keeper?’. God punishes Cain by making him become a
homeless wanderer.
What is the moral of this parable?
This shows God wanted us to look after each
other (be ‘my brother’s keeper’) and if you
refuse to look after your fellow man you will
be punished.
How can this be linked to Christian moral duties
and responsibilities?
It is important to love and respect to everyone,
to be compassionate and kind and
understanding. It is important to not give in
to negative emotions such as hatred and
jealousy.
11 For
this is the message you heard from the beginning: We should love one
another. 12 Do not be like Cain, who belonged to the evil one and murdered
his brother. And why did he murder him? Because his own actions were evil
and his brother’s were righteous. 13 Do not be surprised, my brothers and
sisters, if the world hates you. 14 We know that we have passed from death
to life, because we love each other. Anyone who does not love remains in
death. 15 Anyone who hates a brother or sister is a murderer, and you know
that no murderer has eternal life residing in him.

actively care for others.
How can this be linked to Christian moral duties

while others suffer. They should get involved

work, fund raising, raising awareness,
volunteering etc.
