The Golden Rule states,"Do unto others as you would have them do unto to you".Now that works well with "normal" people,because most people like to be treated well.But I've had a nagging question about that. You know, not everyone who "hears" the Word is, or becomes, saved.Ok.. so, with instructions to "do unto others as you would have them do unto to you." I have the question,"What if a masochist heard that, and , since masochists LIKE TO be mistreated , and even physically tortured,the masochist, upon hearing this, would apply it to his own twisted thinking and go around abusing others.When Jesus gave the Golden Rule, was that taken into consideration?Would any of you have an answer for that?For all we know, there might have been masochists who read that and used it for justification to mistreat others. So it's a legitimate point. I guess Jesus realized the risk of that happening.

Did Jesus think of this?

Yes, Steven, Jesus thought of this... He knew people would twist His Words, as the serpent twisted God’s Words in th beginning...
“Many false prophets will arise and will mislead many. Because lawlessness is increased, most people’s love will grow cold. But the one who endures to the end, he will be saved. This gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all the nations, and then the end will come.
Unless those days had been cut short, no life would have been saved; but for the sake of the elect those days will be cut short.
For false Christs and false prophets will arise and will show great signs and wonders, so as to mislead, if possible, even the elect. Behold, I have told you in advance.”
Matthew 24:11-14, 22, 24-25 NASB
So did Peter and the other Apostles...
“But false prophets also arose among the people, just as there will also be false teachers among you, who will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the Master who bought them, bringing swift destruction upon themselves. Many will follow their sensuality, and because of them the way of the truth will be maligned; and in their greed they will exploit you with false words; their judgment from long ago is not idle, and their destruction is not asleep.”
2 Peter 2:1-3 NASB
So did The Apostle Paul...
“If anyone advocates a different doctrine and does not agree with sound words, those of our Lord Jesus Christ, and with the doctrine conforming to godliness, he is conceited and understands nothing; but he has a morbid interest in controversial questions and disputes about words, out of which arise envy, strife, abusive language, evil suspicions, and constant friction between men of depraved mind and deprived of the truth, who suppose that godliness is a means of gain.”
1 Timothy 6:3-5 NASB
He reminds Timothy again because it is so important what to focus on (Sound Doctrine about faith in Who Jesus is, what He did and what that means we should believe), and what we should avoid. He ends by saying to Study the Scriptures so we can strengthen believers in the faith...
“Remember Jesus Christ, risen from the dead, descendant of David, according to my gospel,
Remind them of these things, and solemnly charge them in the presence of God not to wrangle about words, which is useless and leads to the ruin of the hearers. Be diligent to present yourself approved to God as a workman who does not need to be ashamed, accurately handling the word of truth.”
2 Timothy 2:8, 14-15 NASB

All masokists needs Jesus. Pray for them Jesus always thinks on those who are so far away from Him. Homesexuals are not saved, lesbians need the Lord. Whatever they do is not pleasing to God almighty. Jesus, please, save them all. Bring them to church for the evening service to be filled with the Holy Spirit and be delivered from all kinds of sins and temptations the devil brings to our life. In Jesus name. Amen
Look not to men or women for your salvation. Look to Jesus on the cross who cried out. Father, forgive them for they do not know what they do. All masochist are destined to end up in hells burning fire because they are gratified by pain or by seeing others suffer. That is the devil working on peoples lives to make them depressed and full of worry. Let us all pray for them. May Jesus change them, help them and save their souls.
Jesus thinks of everything we do and say. He wants all men and women to get saved and be on their way to heaven. He love us with an everlasting love and cares for us.
