• To do real kindness to one who has injured me, even if it should never be known by a creature upon earth, is the only thing worthy of a Christian.

When the provocation occurs, we should have it settled in our souls that the Christian is here for the purpose of expressing Christ; for indeed we are His epistle, known and read of all men. We ought to desire to reflect what Christ would have done under the same circumstances. (“Remarks on Matthew 5:17-48” by W. Kelly)
