Do you LOVE your enemies Do we warn men to repent and believe . Do we love our enemies. Do we do and treat them as JESUS said too. Or do we hate them and allow them to remain in sin and just join hands for unity as they perish . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WE should be thanking HIM and rejoicing in HIM for even having spared us. Say it again. if you feel like it. that was beautiful. It's great to thank Him with our lips, and we should, (Through Him then let us continually offer up a sacrifice of praise to God, that is, the fruit of lips that acknowledge His name. Heb 13:15); but we should also thank Him with our lives, by living for Him. For the love of Christ controls us, because we have concluded this: that one has died for all, therefore all have died; and He died for all, that those who live might no longer live for themselves but for Him who for their sake died and was raised. (2 Corinthians 5:14, 15) I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship. (Romans 12:1) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
