Just a final remark on the command: "Bear ye one another's burdens". I read on Wednesday in my daily reading these words: "As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith," Galatians 6:10.

While Christians should bear one another's burdens, they are not to ignore or forget the unsaved!

"For this is the message that ye heard from the beginning, that we should love one another. Not as Cain, who was of that wicked one, and slew his brother. And wherefore slew he him? Because his own works were evil, and his brother's righteous. Marvel not, my brethren, if the world hate you. We know that we have passed from death unto life, because we love the brethren. He that loveth not his brother abideth in death," 1 John 3:11-14.

Even though the world hate us we are to seek to 'do good unto all men'!

Note the term used by the Saviour of His people. "Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me," verse 40. "My brethren". This is what Christians are to the King of Kings!

We are part of his family of God. We are related to the Lord Jesus Christ. Man recently said to Prince Charles that they were related! No great honour given his many sins and wicked opinions and notions!

But what an honour to be related to Christ!

It is a close relationship. The Father of our Lord Jesus Christ is our Father also. "When ye pray, say, Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name," Luke 11:2.

Listen to these words! "And the multitude sat about him, and they said unto him, Behold, thy mother and thy brethren without seek for thee. And he answered them, saying, Who is my mother, or my brethren? And he looked round about on them which sat about him, and said, Behold my mother and my brethren! For whosoever shall do the will of God, the same is my brother, and my sister, and mother," Mark 3:32-35.
