Well yes the more we are willing to learn the more we will grow.

That's why we should always be good because evil will try to overcome us but we should be ready for the worse :)

We all should behave other as friendly. We should not treat others as rough. We all are brothers because we are emerging from same couple from ancient. So we all should treat others as our friend, brothers, sisters>>>>And we should think for our brothers in good

WHILST a man is engaged in resisting evil, he is not only not practising the good, he is actually involved in the like passion and prejudice which he condemns in another ; and as a direct result of his attitude of mind, he himself is resisted by others as evil. Resist a man, a party, a religion, a government, as evil, and you yourself will be resisted as evil. He who considers it as a great evil that he should be persecuted and condemned, let him cease to persecute and condemn. Let him turn away from all that he has hitherto regarded as evil, and begin to look for the good. So deep and far-reaching is this precept that the practice of it will take a man far up the heights of spiritual knowledge and attainment.

He who will keep the precepts of Jesus will conquer himself, and will become divinely illuminated.

I appreciate your enthusiasm. I'm just wondering why you are pre-empting my post for the next day, by posting it in the comments, today.

Sorry dear @jamesallen. i just wanted to show you my enthusiasm in this. i will not do again it
