Bible Question: What does the Bible mean when it say "love your enemies"? |
Bible Answer: Greetings! It is easier to explain this saying than it is to live it. :-) Imagine that you love your mother more than anything or anyone in the world. Treat your enemies the same way that you would treat her. Jesus is simply saying that we should behave differently than the world by loving everyone, including those who hate us.
