Sermons About Forgive
Returning Grace for Evil
We find it relatively easy to be kind and gracious to people who are kind and gracious to us. Jesus is unimpressed by that and said that anyone can do that. He calls us to a tremendously more difficult task: to love our enemies, the very people who have harmed us in the past or threaten to do so in the future. This is so difficult to do because we want justice for those that have hurt us and we want to strike out and weaken those who threaten us to prevent them from hurting us. The reason that Jesus calls us to love our enemies is because He loves His enemies, including you and me and our enemies, and He shows grace and mercy to us who oppose Him. The mission of God’s people in this age is to spread the Gospel of God’s Grace by word and deed throughout the whole earth, and since we have received such amazing undeserved love from God, we should show it towards our enemies as well, because Jesus cares about them like He cares about us.
