It goes on to show that most heathens possessed more of virtue than the followers of law as they showed more of mercy and love than ignorant obedience to the law.The same is with christianity, a true Christian does as per what Christ teaches us to do to fellowman, just as the samaritan did.It is imperative that we apply these teachings to our everyday lives, especially in the small things... and this brings to my attention to those who have been harrassed by life to be poor.Nowadays you hardly find good people to stop their cars by harmless pedestrians to give them a lift, no, we are concerned about our "self ", our good.we abandon the weightier things just as the Levite and the Priest did.Surely, will Jesus recognise His people......TRAGEDY!!!!
