Text: Matthew 5:43-48
Hatred of any kind is not biblical. It is not of God. God says to love people with an unconditional love. God says to bless those who are dragging your name through the mud and do good to those who do you wrong and persecute you. By that, God means for us to pray for them all. That love can win them to Christ. Love doesn’t mean you accept everything. It means that you may dislike what is being said and done, but that you’ll still love them unconditionally and pray for them.
Confront hatred with Truth and take them back to the Word of God. Win them to Christ!
We do all this because we are sons and daughters of our Father in heaven. Let’s be a “chip off the old block”!
