One New Race EP96
from Finding Our Way
From the transcript... He was a judge, all this kind of stuff. And Jesus says, yeah. He said, you've heard that. That's conclusion of the Old Testament. Then he said, but I say to you. He establishes a new order. The king steps up and says, yeah, that's what you've heard. That's where you've been until now. But now I'm just going to tell you how it really is. Then he says, I say to you, love your enemies. Bless those who curse you. Do good to those who hate you. Yeah. Yeah. And pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you, that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven. For he makes his son rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and the unjust. Okay. Totally different. I like God blessing everybody. Yeah, and then he says, because then you'll be like your father. Because here's what the Father was doing. He's blessing everybody. Look at it like this, he says. If you love those who love you, do you expect a special reward? Even tax collectors do that, don't they? Yeah. There's nothing special about you if you're loving somebody that loves you. Are you loving your enemy? Well, yes. It's easy to love those who are easy to love. But is that real love? I mean, that's the thing. Is it real love? It's love in its purest form, which is what you find in Jesus.
