Love Your Enemies (Matthew 5:43-48)

mattellis1997 Matt Ellis
Do you battle with anger or resentment because of how someone has treated you? Did you know that Jesus has told us that we are to love those who are opposed to us and pray for those who mistreat us? Believe me, it isn't easy. But, it is a command nonetheless.

This sermon explores what it means to love our enemies and pray for those who persecute us. It further reveals why it is essential that we comply with Jesus' commands regarding how we are to treat those who oppose us.
