What does loving your neighbor look like in today's world?

[Anchorite]

Luke 10:25-37 - The good Samaritan
- The good Samaritan did ALL that he could
- He didn't just walk away like the Priests did
- He risked his life, the attackers could have been nearby.
- You have a home
- House a homeless person in your own home, you would if it was a close loved family member.
But that homeless person might be dangerous
Did the good Samaritan worry about his personal safety when he stopped ?
Keep the excuses coming, we ALL try and justify our purposeful sinning, MYSELF INCLUDED

Do you have a homeless person living with you?

speaking of loving and not hating our neighbor lets look at what the bible also says .
YE shall not HATE your neighbor in your heart , you SHALL CORRECT him and NOT allow SIN upon him .
SO just in case anyone is being influenced by seeker friendly judge not correct not methods ,
FLEE it . it aint love , its hate to allow sin and Unbeleif to remain upon your neighbor .
JESUS preaching time . DOING all things HE said to do .

Love for neighbor, rightly understood, flows from the first commandment. It does not require agreement, endorsement of sin, or abandonment of justice (Leviticus 19:18; Luke 10:25-37; Matthew 5:45). Compassion extends impartially, as G-d sends rain on just and unjust, yet it never excuses rebellion. “Do not eat a limb from a living animal” (Genesis 9:4) and the Good Samaritan remind us that basic mercy transcends tribe—yet the greatest commandment still defines it all (1 John 4:8). True love reflects G-d’s holy, just, and merciful character as image-bearers. Source: And the Worldly Christian says, “G-d so loved the World!”

exactly . as it is clearly written
you shall NOT hate your neighbor in your heart , you SHALL co rrect him and NOT allow sin upon him .
The false lovey do of judge not correct not , IT AINT Love at all , its hate . but they think its lov ing .
Bo y o boy did christendom g et infiltrated by the love of a harlot and sold as though it were the Love of GOD .

 

[amigo de christo]

Do you have a homeless person living with you?

To the trenches . The love of a harlot has taken many captive under the guise it was of GOD .
And now leads them all to the lie .
Stand firm on Christ . Stand firm on the doctrine ye have learned . Line the walls and sound the trumpet
For all of this the judgment of GOD cometh and all who loved a lie shall perish .
Remind all that DOCTRINE matters , TRUTH matters , the words of our LORD matter and the doctrine
of the apostels matter . ANY love that contradicts TRUTH , IS NOT OF GOD . warn them all
for the delusion grows by the day and by the hour now .

What are some loving things you do for your neighbor? And I'm not just talking about those who live next to you.

Do people coming to attack you count?

So, again, we need help in our decision making. We can't just do what feels right. Somewhere in our heart we seem to be able to go either way, to do what is good, to help, or to hurt and make matters worse. I suppose that means each one of those decisions needs to be made knowing that--not just in Jesus' name--but allowing him to make the decision, every time.

To everything there is a season,
A time for every purpose under heaven:

2 A time to be born,
And a time to die;
A time to plant,
And a time to pluck what is planted;
3 A time to kill,
And a time to heal;
A time to break down,
And a time to build up;
4 A time to weep,
And a time to laugh;
A time to mourn,
And a time to dance;
5 A time to cast away stones,
And a time to gather stones;
A time to embrace,
And a time to refrain from embracing;
6 A time to gain,
And a time to lose;
A time to keep,
And a time to throw away;
7 A time to tear,
And a time to sew;
A time to keep silence,
And a time to speak;
8 A time to love,
And a time to hate;
A time of war,
And a time of peace.
Ecclesiastes 3:1-8

How many of those do we have control of? We don't have control of when we were born.

Here is a music piece that I heard in my dream many months ago. God was letting me know what time he had me under.

That gives me an idea. I should share and post this type of thing in the spiritual warfare section.

I don’t get the connection, but any time God speaks or engineers our circumstances, it's good to pay attention and listen.
