“Lecture On Enemy Love”

Monday, February 10, 2025

Key Verse

“But I say unto you which hear, Love your enemies, do good to them which hate you, Bless them that curse you, and pray for them which despitefully use you” (Luke 6:27-28).
Text —Luke 6:27-36

Message

Christ’s teaching on love is one major thing that sets Christianity apart from many other religions. We are reminded of the story of Nicky Cruz, a gangster and drug-dealer filled with anger and resentment against society. Nicky had enclosed his mind within a thick wall of hatred for God and anything decent. Then he came across David Wilkerson, a gospel preacher whose love for God and for the worst of sinners gradually wore out his defenses. Eventually, Nicky Cruz became born again and a preacher of the gospel. Love won at last.

Satan is the only enemy a real believer has; there are however people who hate believers because of their faith. Christ’s teaching on love refers to the believer’s gracious reaction to all such enemies. Love melts the hardest of hearts. The blacksmith’s fire causes the hot iron to yield to whatever shape he chooses, in the same way love conquers hatred and ultimately turns enemies into friends. Salvation and sanctification through grace equip the believer to love the unlovable. Both experiences can be yours today through faith in Christ’s atoning blood.
