Resurrection City Church - St. Paul Minnesota
Religion & Spirituality:Christianity
It’s normal to love those who love us, and require an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth for our enemies. Jesus says this will not work if we want to follow him, however. All that is is flirting with the same fire that caused our enemy to do evil to us in the first place. Instead, we are to turn the other cheek, go the extra mile, give them the shirt off our back. These are famous words, but do we take them as seriously as Jesus meant for us to?
In this sermon, Pastor Joel walks through one of the most famous passages of the Sermon on the Mount, and also one of the most radical. What does it look like to love our enemies like Jesus does? Why must we be careful so that we are not overcome by evil? And how does it all connect directly to the gospel? Listen and find out!
