Do you

 Do you


Jesus said,

“You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbour and hate your enemy.’  

But I tell you: Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, that you may be sons of your Father in heaven. He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous.  

If you love those who love you, what reward will you get? Are not even the tax collectors doing that?  

  And if you greet only your brothers, what are you doing more than others? Do not even pagans do that?

Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect.” Matthew 5:43-48.

It’s easy to love those who love you. Loving your enemies is quite a different thing. Yet as Christians we are called to love as God loves. Unconditionally our family, friends and foes.

Thus my question to you; 

If you consider yourself a Christian do you love all those around you unconditionally be they family, friend, or foe?

Please think about it.
