THREE PHILOSOPHIES: THE GOOD SAMARITAN

The parable of the Good Samaritan gives three philosophies of life—

The robber's philosophy was "What you have is mine, and I will take it."

The priest and Levite had the philosophy that "What is mine is mine, and I will keep it."

The Samaritan's philosophy was "What is mine is yours, and I will share it."

Jesus endorsed the Samaritan's philosopher and said, "Go, and do thou likewise." (Luke 10:37)
