AMPLIFIED 2015 | Leviticus 19:18 'You shall not take revenge nor bear any grudge against the sons of your people, but you shall love your neighbor (acquaintance, associate, companion) as yourself; I am the LORD. [Matt 5:43-46; Rom 12:17, 19] |
Subject: Obedience in Love? |
Bible Note: For God so loved the world He sent his only Begotten Son. Before Christ we all were sinners yet God loved us enough to send His Son to die for us. Jesus loved us enough to go to the cross for us. If we meet a sinner and treat them with hate we are doing just the opposite of what Jesus did when he met with sinners. He even dined with them. If God hated sinner then none of us would have been saved through an act of love. Again loving the sinner is not loving the sin or even accepting or tolerating the sin. |
