31as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise.
. . . .
36Be ye therefore merciful, as your Father also is merciful. 37Judge not, and ye shall not be judged: condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned: forgive, and ye shall be forgiven:
. . . .
40The disciple is not above his master: but every one that is perfect shall be as his master.

Luke 6:20, 31 as, 36, 37, 40 KJV King James Version
20 And looking toward His disciples, He began speaking: “Blessed [spiritually prosperous, happy, to be admired] are you poor [in spirit, those devoid of spiritual arrogance, those who regard themselves as insignificant], for the kingdom of God is yours [both now and forever].
. . . .
31Treat others the same way you want them to treat you.
. . . .
36Be merciful (responsive, compassionate, tender) just as your [heavenly] Father is merciful.
37 “Do not judge [others self-righteously], and you will not be judged; do not condemn [others when you are guilty and unrepentant], and you will not be condemned [for your hypocrisy]; pardon [others when they truly repent and change], and you will be pardoned [when you truly repent and change].

40A student is not superior to his teacher; but everyone, after he has been completely trained, will be like his teacher.
