Resist Hate…
You have heard it said…
“I hate them.”
They are the problem.”
“Don’t get mad. Get even.”
“Make them pay.”
“Hate your enemies.”
But I say to you…
“Love your enemies.”
“Do good to those who hate you.”
“Bless those who curse you.”
“Pray for those who mistreat you.”
– Jesus (Luke 6:27–28)
You have heard it said…
“An eye for an eye.”
“They hit us, we hit back harder.”
“Never forget. Never forgive.”
“We are coming after you.”
But I say to you…
“Turn the other cheek.”
“Do not repay evil for evil.”
“Forgive seventy times seven.”
– Jesus (Matthew 18:22)
You have heard it said: Hate.
But I say to you: Love.
Breathe deep. Love wide. Resist hate.
