love my enemies... would this include Satan? just seems a big touched to continue loving him while he’s busy hacking off my limbs

and i’m not sure this includes the mental disease that is the American commie.

they focus on coveting everything others have worked for and push to steal it via govt (and don’t get me started on what they want for the unborn)

oh, don’t get me wrong... i pray for their soul and wish it safely to its eternal resting place... sooner rather then later.

One who has the power to bring down many angels does not.

Yet, HE allows the “ adversary” to talk to HIM, ask HIM questions, ask requests, tempt HIM, and HE never kills; that’s love.

When it’s time to die, it’s time to die. The physical must go. This is life. How it goes?? No one knows. But, we know it must go.

Life, jobs, and all. No matter how educated, pretty, or wise someone is, they still must rely on GOD to get them what they now call “ theirs”. No one can take from someone that is not theirs. GOD makes it rain and shine on the wicked and righteous.

LUKE 4:1-13
Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, left the Jordan and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness,

2 where for forty days he was tempted[a] by the devil. He ate nothing during those days, and at the end of them he was hungry.

3 The devil said to him, “If you are the Son of God, tell this stone to become bread.”

4 Jesus answered, “It is written: ‘Man shall not live on bread alone.’

5 The devil led him up to a high place and showed him in an instant all the kingdoms of the world.

6 And he said to him, “I will give you all their authority and splendor; it has been given to me, and I can give it to anyone I want to.

7 If you worship me, it will all be yours.”

8 Jesus answered, “It is written: ‘Worship the Lord your God and serve him only.’

9 The devil led him to Jerusalem and had him stand on the highest point of the temple. “If you are the Son of God,” he said, “throw yourself down from here. 10 For it is written:

“‘He will command his angels concerning you
to guard you carefully;
11 they will lift you up in their hands,
so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.

12 Jesus answered, “It is said: ‘Do not put the Lord your God to the test.’

13 When the devil had finished all this tempting, he left him until an opportune time.

How to treat your enemies and those that do wrong to you and know that GOD feeds/blesses the righteous and wicked:

MATTHEW 5:43-48
43 Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy.

44 But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;

45 That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.

46 For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same?

47 And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the publicans so?

48 Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.

As far as the unborn. GOD is the controller of life and death. Only HE knows when we are supposed to live and die.
Beware of those that try to carry people astry with the lines:
“ Born to early”
“ Born to late”
“ Died to early”
“ Died to late”
“ Almost died”
“ clean, not clean”
and more:

MATTHEW 15:1-14
Then came to Jesus scribes and Pharisees, which were of Jerusalem, saying,

2 Why do thy disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? for they wash not their hands when they eat bread.

3 But he answered and said unto them, Why do ye also transgress the commandment of God by your tradition?

4 For God commanded, saying, Honour thy father and mother: and, He that curseth father or mother, let him die the death.

5 But ye say, Whosoever shall say to his father or his mother, It is a gift, by whatsoever thou mightest be profited by me;

6 And honour not his father or his mother, he shall be free. Thus have ye made the commandment of God of none effect by your tradition.

7 Ye hypocrites, well did Esaias prophesy of you, saying,

8 This people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth, and honoureth me with their lips; but their heart is far from me.

9 But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.

10 And he called the multitude, and said unto them, Hear, and understand:

11 Not that which goeth into the mouth defileth a man; but that which cometh out of the mouth, this defileth a man.

12 Then came his disciples, and said unto him, Knowest thou that the Pharisees were offended, after they heard this saying?

13 But he answered and said, Every plant, which my heavenly Father hath not planted, shall be rooted up.

14 Let them alone: they be blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch.

GOD BLESS US ALL,

Jesus4life
