now when it comes to loving your enemy that puts a whole different light on it for example if I should say to you today do you love people that you know are your enemies you may give me some religious answer oh sure but deep down inside you think yeah no I don't really love them it's difficult to love some people in fact some people make it difficult for you to love them and when we find people who would destroy us we say am I supposed to love them listen carefully there is a difference in loving
a person as a person and loving their ways and there Ambitions and their desires that are ungodly and destructive we are not required to love the ways of the ungodly and I'm not required to love their actions their deeds their motives and all the rest when we want to see every person saved yes no matter how mean and vicious and wicked and vile they are we required to love their ways absolutely not and so when Jesus said with the love is he loved that's the way he loved not no matter for example I think about
how they responded and uh how Jesus responded to them it was always selflessly he wasn't saying do this for me do that for me he said I want I love you and I want you to love one another like I love you not thinking of myself but thinking about the other person when you say I love you to someone what do you really and truly mean do you remain do you mean I care for you I'm thinking about you I want what's best for you and I want to do whatever I can to help you
to become the person you want to be are you thinking about what it's going to get you you see Selfless Love isn't centered on self itself less it's you that's important it's the other person how you feel what happens to you what what are your needs not what I think they are but what are they that's the way he loved
