How much do you love your enemies?

Do they follow this command while all the time preaching LOVE your Enemies? Do they go door to door with other Church members two by two? Do they? Do they? Do they? Do they give out tracks in a public square? Do they invite any and all they come in contact with to their Church? What are they doing besides preaching LOVE your Enemies?

How much do I love my enemies? Maybe we should define love here. Now...do you mean...do I feel 'mushy' love for the child rapist next door, or the abortionalist, (gasp), Obama, etc, etc? Of course I dont FEEL that love!! The stark truth of the matter is that I have to grit my proverbial teeth (and sometimes, the real thing) to even want to pray for them as Scripture commands the believer to do. Does that make you feel better? Is this how you've been defining Biblical love Shain? Scripture COMMANDS, not suggests that we pray for our enemies and in that sense we are loving them. I'm sure that your KJV Bible commands the same thing! Are you saying that you (in open defience of scripture) refuse to pray for the non-believer, no matter who he may be?

Secondly, you are bearing false witness when you say that those of us who heed Christ's command to love the enemy are 'mocking' those who go door to door? Can you back this up with solid proof of someone who did just that in any of these threads? Thirdly, your post is making assumptions about what others do and dont do? How do YOU know some of us dont pass out tracts, go door to door, engage in 'street corner' witnessing, etc? Do you know that much about our personal lives outside of this forum?

Do you now consider us to be the enemy as well Shain, simply because we dont propogate and support your gospel of hate? If so, do you pray for us? Or will you simply give in the flesh and just hate us? Please note that I am not assuming you do now consider us to be the enemy, although the increasing hostility of your posts seems to be leading in that direction. I'm simply asking you the question, because maybe, at this point, it is something you need to ask yourself.
