Kingdom Living - The Commands of ChristSample
Commands of Christ: 19
Love your enemies.
Wow. That pretty much redefines who an enemy is. It is not someone you hate, because there are no such people if you are truly a Christ-follower. It is someone who hates you. You are loving to everyone equally, just as the Lord is. This reminds me of a quote from Amy Carmichael. (I don’t hate it because it isn’t true. I hate it because it is true and it’s convicting.) “No matter how suddenly you jar a bowl of sweet water, no bitter water will ever spill out.”
About this Plan
Our lives should be characterized by what Jesus commanded and as His followers we should be getting others to love (and thus obey) Him as well. This is not optional or for extra credit. It is the very essence of what it means to be His follower. "...teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you..." This is what Kingdom Living is all about.
