Love in its purest, most-powerful form is loving your enemies. And how can they be your enemies if you love them? Whoever puts a gun to your head - love them- love them like God himself commanded it- and he did.Hate is what created your enemies. Love is what changes those enemies into brothers. Pray and while many of mankind hate, you love. God is going to change this imperfect world by his love and forgiveness, and by his love and forgiveness we have been changed.
Matthew 5:44
But I tell you, love your enemies! Pray for those who persecute you!
Matthew 5:46-48
If you love only those who love you, what reward is there for that? Even corrupt tax collectors do that much. If you are kind only to your friends, how are you different from anyone else? Even pagans do that. But you are to be perfect, even as your Father in heaven is perfect.
Shouldn't we as Christians look different from the rest of this world? We cannot over stress nor over use love...just love and love some more. God will overcome.
Pray!
