Can we take this scripture literal to mean exactly what it says; a resounding yes is heard across the country and many of us live our lives in our dealing with others saved and unsaved alike in this manner, do unto others as you would have them do unto you, right, so we spend our day talking with people, being very respectful, listening to every word as to not to give an appearance of being bored, we say yes maam and yes sir, we help with heavy items, we give our opinion or even offer The Word of God as a comfort, as an answer to a problem and in many cases we offer a Word of Prayer, we smile because we don't meet any strangers because we have heard that you maybe entertaining angels unaware, every gift and talent God has given us we use it to uplift others as we ought not ever doing this for it to be returned but we know that we reap what we sow, so we don't want any horrible things to come back on us, we have enough fighting the devil because we are being obedient to God and walking after the spirit and not after the flesh, not ever expecting it to e returned by the person we helped out, but when it comes back and it comes back in away that makes you say IS THAT WHAT I DID TO YOU?  After my first encounter i went and repented to God because it had to be something i did wrong and just did not realize it, after many more returns and soon discovered that just because your nice to people does not always mean that they are going to be nice to you, just because your honest with people does not always mean that they will be honest wirth you, what? am i saying not to do what God has placed in you, no that is not what i'm saying keep doing what you know to do becasue it will come back, but remember everyone is not on the same level or understanding as you are, however it does prove to be a great test of your love for Christ. 

Be Blessed
