    Jesus taught us to break the hate in our hearts and lives and to offer people love, prayers and forgiveness so that they would see that people who are a part of the Kingdom of Heaven are using a different operating system than this world.

    Series: Cliff Hangers Introduction: These teachings were risky, some would even say very dangerous, they would be teachings that would be opposite of what the religious leaders of the day were teaching, and they would become points of dissension and points of exhilaration. Some people would ...read more

    Today we are going to look at a different aspect of God's grace. God has a grace that saves us, but He also has a grace that He shows to everyone--whether they will go to heaven or not. It is called common grace.

    Purpose: To explain how God's demonstrates His grace to all. Aim: I want the listener to marvel at God's goodness and never take it for granted. INTRODUCTION: When we think about God's grace our minds usually go to John Newton's words: "Amazing grace, how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like ...read more

    Let's consider the things Jesus probably did not mean when He said, "Love your enemies." Then I want us to look at some of the things He did mean.

    MELVIN M. NEWLAND, MINISTER RIDGE CHAPEL, KANSAS, OK (REVISED: 2019) TEXT: Matthew 5:43-47 Earlier this year we looked at the Sermon on the Mount as recorded in the Book of Matthew & considered what Jesus was saying in Matthew ...read more

     | 6,374 views

    Loving a neighbour can be hard enough, but loving an enemy? What was Jesus thinking? How do we respond when people treat us poorly, insult us, ridicule us, or set themselves up against us in our homes, our schools, our places of work and our communities

    A different understanding of "Be ye perfect" (Matt. 5:48) that talks about 1. The perfection OF Christ, the perfection IN Christ and the perfection LIKE Christ.

    The Perfect Hole Matthew 5:38-5:48 In the last sentence of our passage today, Jesus says something that is very confusing… "Be perfect, therefore, as your Heavenly Father is perfect." Be Perfect! Doesn’t that make you scratch your head? How can we possibly be ...read more

    Destroying Your Enemy

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Nov 8, 2012
    based on 4 ratings
     | 9,623 views

    Obeying Jesus’ command to love our enemies doesn’t come naturally, however. Often our first response is to retaliate. The best way - the Christ-like way - to destroy an enemy is to make him your friend! To melt an enemy, try the warmth of love.

    Opening illustration: There is a story told of two shopkeepers. Their stores were across the street from each other, and the two had a bitter rivalry. One day an angel came to one of the shopkeepers and said, “The Lord has sent me to tell you that you may have one wish. Whatever you ask for, ...read more

    What Jesus Teaches Us About Loving Our Enemies

    Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Mar 26, 2015

    No matter how hard we try, we know that there are going to be flaws & blemishes in our life. We know that we are not without sin because the Bible tells us so. So let’s take a look at the subject of love.

    If there is one thing the world really needs to know more about, & to put into practice, it is "love." How often Jesus tells us to love one another. In John 15:12 He commanded us to love one another. In fact "love" is so important that Jesus devoted a whole section of the Sermon on the Mount to ...read more
