To be responsiable to what you have been given
To do unto others as you would have them do unto you
To provide forgiveness for sin
The call to protect feed widows and orhpans
The call to feed the hungry, to cloth the poor.
To Go the extra mile to give and do more than what is expected
The strong ties to family and community (A man can not serve in the church unless he first cares for and protects his family first)
The principle that one must forgive transgression before our own are forgiven
The fact that God Has promised to open Himself to you personally if you simply A/S/K Him to
The fact that we are no longer tied to the law of sin as a means to righteousness/The idea that we can not earn ourway to heaven by our deeds
The command that we are to respect and tailor our selves in such a way as to not cause weaker brother to stumble in sin.
The freedom we have in everything we do from worship, to beliefs and how we live our lives.
The fact that we have a God that would go to such extremes to ensure salvation to those who not only don't deserve it, but would be doomed to Hell without such a sacrifice.
Remember for the time these things were written, they were all very counter culture, and would still be if not for the examples of 2000 years of Christianity and it's influence over humanity.
