Love Your Enemies - Audio
from First Baptist Church · host Rev. Ben Robinson
We are just now finishing up the Matthew 5 in our series on The Sermon On The Mount. Today we are dealing with the last part of the law that Jesus expounded upon. The law says to love your neighbor as yourselves. The religious leaders of the day made a sin of omission by making it easier on themselves by removing the "as yourselves." Then they had a sin of addition where they added to the law that they had every right to hate your enemies. That command is found nowhere in the Bible. Then Jesus totally rocked their world of thinking by telling them that they should love their enemies. Yes, He addressed the Jews of His day, but He is addressing us as well.
