Subject: Did Jesus teach hate? |
Bible Note: I appreciate your post. It does help to put some things into perspective. It is just a struggle to understand why Jesus said and did some of the things that He said and did giving the general consensus of Him and His ministry. For instance, though He is the Prince of Peace, He claimed to bring a sword and to divide. It takes much time, patience, and humbleness to truly understand this God-man. seeking4truth |
