    Love your enemies

    You misunderstood. I'm saying I am not asking questions; yet you are saying I am. I haven't looked at the posts that you posted yet; though I will.

    Love your enemies

    I genuinely appreciate the time you took to list the post numbers for me to look at. I don't see many questions, if any, that I'm asking. I do see that anyone should be allowed to post their view of God's Word even though it may have already been expressed by someone else; however I appreciate...

    Love your enemies

    Not sure what your point is. There is no mention of Jesus being physically violent to anyone in the temple situation. Scripture is silent regarding how He did what He did; therefore we can't conclude He was physical with them. There's another way of doing that: talking, reasoning with words...

    Love your enemies

    I'm not sure how Jesus' sermon is not applicable to all of His followers. The message Jesus gave His church is what He did and said while here on earth. Yes, the Jews were God's people and the ones Jesus was interacting with and what He told them is what the apostles spread throughout the...

    Love your enemies

    What I mean is God's nature in what He expects from His people today and what His message is to His people today. His instruction to His people through Jesus is most definitely different from what He instructed His people in the OT. As Christians we follow Jesus in how we live, no longer the...

    Love your enemies

    Great question; yet I don't see that we have a complete answer. I too have wondered this and don't understand God's nature found in the OT compared to what we see His nature to be in the NT through Jesus. What is of most importance is what He has said to His people today, Christians. In the OT...

    Thanks, I try to look at the dates and guess I overlooked this one.

    Do Christians have to forgive everything no matter how bad the sins?

    I'm sorry, I don't see any contradiction. Maybe you can expand your thought a little more. We are to always forgive, just like God forgives us.

    Love your enemies

    Good thought, it can seem there are two different principles that God expected/expects from His people. I've wondered this for awhile yet don't have a good answer. Of course it is obvious today as God's people, Christians, we are to love our enemies and this trumps His expectations from His...

    Do Christians have to forgive everything no matter how bad the sins?

    We are only forgiven by God if we forgive the wrong committed against us. It is not up to us to judge what sin is forgivable and which is not. Who are we to determine this and by what means or measurement do we determine what we forgive. Matthew 6:14-15 "For if you forgive others for their...

    Peace to everyone

    "God only allows us to kill individuals if it's under the grounds of self defense." Please provide support for your belief. Using Jesus' principles through scripture please defend this statement.
