385 – Is loving your enemies still relevant?
One of the most challenging commandments Jesus has given us is to love our enemies.
This was not a request nor a mere suggestion to follow through on only if we want to. It’s not just a recommendation or advice.
It's a command directly from Jesus’s heart to yours and mine.
But what is the point of loving someone who is mean to you, has abused you, and has done everything in their power to oppose you and what you stand for?
Why on earth did Jesus want us to love our enemies?
In this week’s episode, that’s exactly what we’ll be talking about:
- Why Jesus wants us to love our enemies
- How to do it
- The blessings that come when you do
Think what would happen in the world today if all those who claim to be Christians actually obeyed Jesus’s command to love your enemies.
The whole world would feel the difference. The change would be immediate.
Who do you need to love today?
