The “10 laws of manhood” are best answered by the One who understood men best.
These “10 laws” work not just for men, but for everyone, everywhere, everywhen.
1.Let your light shine by your example that others might see and glorify God through you.
(Matt 5: 16: Let your light so shine before all men by the good works that ye do because of the light that the Father hath given unto you; that they might see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.)
2) Never become angry at ANY person in ANY situation.
(Matt. 5: 22: But I say unto you, he that killeth in any manner and for whatever reason lieth in sin; and whosoever is angry with his brother for any reason shall be in danger of the same judgment, because the anger in his heart might lead to the death of his brother; and whosoever shall hold his brother in contempt or ridicule shall be in danger of the law that hath been given by the council which rendereth the law; but whosoever shall say to his brother for any reason, Thou fool, shall be in danger of a hell like unto fire, which shall burn in his soul because of that which he thinkest of his brother.)
3) Respect another’s opinions and beliefs as if they were your own.
(Matt. 5: 25: Yea, be kind to thy brother and respect the opinion of he who disagreeth with thee and considereth thee his adversary, whiles thou art still in his good graces, that thou mightiest remain in the way with him; lest at any time he who considereth thee an adversary causeth thee to sin; for in whatsoever sin thou shalt be found, thou shalt be delivered to the judge, and the judge deliver thee to the officer, and thou be cast into prison.)
4) Stay faithful to relationship commitments, whether these relationships be personal or business, especially promises of fidelity.
(Matt. 5: 28: But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart; therefore, your leaders have caused you to err because of their examples. Ye look at them as your guides who have eyes that see for you, and hands that do for you that which ye believe God hath commanded of them.)
5) Do not fight back in ANY situation.
(Matt. 5: 40: And if any man will sue thee at the law, and take away thy coat, do not fight for that which he desireth of thee, but let him have thy cloak also.)
6) Love your enemies by never thinking of another as your enemy, but as an equal child of God.
(Matt.5: 44-45: But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them who despitefully use you, and persecute you; That ye may become the children of your Father who is in heaven, who is no respecter of persons; for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust—all being His beloved children.)
7) Do not give to be known for giving, but be known for giving.
(Matt. 6:1: And it came to pass that as Jesus taught his disciples, he said unto them, teach this people, saying, Take heed that ye do not your alms before men, to be seen of them and receive the honor and praise of the world; otherwise ye have no need for a reward of your Father which is in heaven, which He shall give unto you, not as the honors of men are given, but by the peace of His Spirit.)
8) Do not fast and pray as others, but know, understand, and act upon the TRUE order of fasting and prayer.
(Matt. 6: 6, 16: But thou, when thou prayest, enter into the closet of thy heart, where others cannot hear thee, and when thou hast shut thine own door to be alone in the Spirit, pray to thy Father who seeth in secret; and thy Father who seeth in secret shall reward thee openly through the ministrations of the Spirit. Moreover when ye fast, be not, as the hypocrites, who pretend to be of a sad countenance; for they disfigure their faces so that it may appear that they sacrifice much of the flesh, that they may appear unto men to fast. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.)
9) Seek for peace and happiness instead of money and success.
(Matt. 6: 19- 21: Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon this earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal the treasures of your hearts, which are the desires that ye have. But lay up for yourselves these treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal; For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.)
10) Do not judge another in ANY way or set a standard or measure for what another person should be or live up to.
(Matt. 7: 1,2: Behold, the temptations of the flesh cause this people to judge one another, and anger and strife enter into their hearts, therefore they sin and keep not the great commandment that I have given unto you. Therefore, teach this people, saying Judge not, that ye be not judged. For with what judgment ye judge another, ye shall be judged of the same. Behold, ye should discern that which is good and that which is evil, but make this judgment in righteousness according to the commandments I have given you of the Father. For which one of you, being evil, can set a measure of righteousness for another? With the measure of righteousness that I have given you, ye shall judge the actions of another, and with this measure that ye mete, it shall be measured to you again when the Son of Man cometh in his glory.)
In service…
In my pursuit of Real Truth, I have given up everything. Crawling through the “eye of the needle,” I have learned the *mysteries* and am now giving my life to assist YOU to dis-cover Who *YOU* really are, along with your unique gift to offer humanity. As you learn to seek (in the right place and with purified intent), you WILL find treasures of lasting value, along with every promised reward. Together, we will establish a society of humane beings and live life ALIVE, on PURPOSE, and with a sociality unequaled… because we will each BE and view each other as equally and profoundly DIVINE! Please… catch this Hope and Vision and join with me.
