You have heard the law that says, ‘Love your neighbor’ and hate your enemy.” God doesn’t show his grace or love to those he deems worthy of it, he shows his love and grace to all people, and so should we.As Christians we are called to be the lights in the dark world, to be examples of Jesus( John 13:15), and to be different from the world.How can we be lights of world when we imitate it’s darkness? If we are to be like Christ, we cannot allow the hatred of the world to fill us up. When this happens, we start a process to be made new, and to become our true, God created selves. When we accept Jesus, we go through the process of being born again, or to be made a new person. If you simply say hello to those who greet you, do you expect a medal? Any run-of-the-mill sinner does that.”Matthew 5:45-47 MSG He gives his best-the sun to warm and the rain to nourish-to everyone, regardless: the good and bad, the nice and nasty.” If all you do is love the lovable, do you expect a bonus? Anybody can do that. When someone gives you a hard time, respond with the energies of prayer, for then you are working out of your true selves, your God-created selves. Why should we show love to those who hate us? For many this can be a difficult thing to do, because their actions against us. To love those who curse at you, to love those who make fun or bully you, and to love and forgive those who despise you. ( temp for now)ĭo you have ideas or feedback for /r/Bible? Send us a modmail!
