Summary
In first, John the 4th chapter, beloved, let us love one another because love is from God. Verse 3, 43, you have heard that it was said, you shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy. Why, in Leviticus the 19th chapter again, the first part of it, the Scripture says, you shall not take vengeance or bear a grudge against any of your people. Jesus them, verse 44 says, but I say to you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, so that you may be children of your father in heaven. No, when we love our enemies and pray for those who persecute us, we are giving by God's grace evidence of the fact that we are children of the father. You've heard this, I say to you, Jesus says, then here they come, here come the questions, verse 46, for if you love those who love you, what reward do you have?
