Love like Jesus: Give to the one who asks you, and do not turn away from the one who wants to borrow from you. Matthew 5:42

In the Sermon on the Mount, Lord Jesus laid the moral and ethical foundations of the doctrine of the Kingdom of God and explained what the behavior of those who want to live according to this "good news" should be.
Jesus, among other things, spoke of the golden rule (Matthew 7:12), the spiritual gift of righteousness, and the love of charity (Agape), the love towards the enemies.
And not only this, he also denounced many of the heresies (teachings of error) that kept men away from the path of mercy (compassion, kindness, gentleness), and from the path of perseverance. As in current times, deception and oppression in Jesus' time were up to date, and constituted the main force of opposition to this Kingdom, this empire or dominion of God's perfections, that Jesus proclaimed.
And Jesus gave the law of retaliation as an example of what a heresy is: "You have heard that it was said, ´Eye for eye, and tooth for tooth.´" Matthew 5:38.
And against this teaching of the error, Jesus opposed the commandment of love; to love like Jesus is to love without taking into account the evil received, that is why Jesus described the behavior of those who want to follow his path:
"But I tell you, do not resist an evil person. If anyone slaps you on the right cheek, turn to them the other cheek also. And if anyone wants to sue you and take your shirt, hand over your coat as well. If anyone forces you to go one mile, go with them two miles. Give to the one who asks you, and do not turn away from the one who wants to borrow from you" Matthew 5:39-42.
Entering into the Kingdom of God according to the teachings of Jesus means bringing the love of the spirit (Agape), the love projected towards the whole creation of God, to the ultimate consequences.
