    A unique take on what it means to be "Perfect"

    Donut Theology 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 “PERFECT”? Or ...read more

    Jesus calls us to love even our enemies. Thus we imitate the perfect love of the Father, and the perfect example of the Son.

    THE CALL TO PERFECT LOVE. Matthew 5:43-48. The last of the six famous parentheses (Matthew 5:21-48) between “Ye have heard that it hath been said” (Matthew 5:43), and “But I say unto you” (Matthew 5:44) - addresses the most blatantly misconstrued of these man-made interpretations of Scripture. ...read more

    Love your enemies! Wow that is not such an easy command to obey. It is much easier to take revenge. But that is not what we are asked to do as believers. What is this loving my enemies all about?

    Of the four roads supposed to lead to happiness, two are dead-ends--the pursuit of pleasure and the pursuit of honor and power--but the paths of service and union with God actually get us there.

    Destroying Your Enemy

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Nov 8, 2012
    based on 4 ratings
     | 9,962 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.
