The Principles of Sowing and Reaping

"Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting. And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not." (Galatians 6:7-9 KJV)

The origin of this principles or philosophy was from the Lord. It's the principle of "Sowing and Reaping". "Do unto others as you would have others do unto you..." Or "Do not do unto others that which you don't want others will do unto you. This is true in our giving to the Lord as well as in our charitable works for our fellow men. The evil deeds that we've done to others will bear the same fruit someday, it means we will reap what we sow. The Lord will not close His eyes to those who are faithfully giving their lives, their resources, and their strenght. And He will not close His eyes either to those who practiced evil, dishonest, unfaithful, greedy, and selfish… God is a just God, He is the same yesterday, today, and for eternity.

Jesus said; "Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets." (Matthew 7:12 KJV)
