“You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ “…  But I tell you, maybe don’t HATE your enemy, but you should certainly fight against them and try to make them like you are.   Only people who are like you can be your neighbor. Once you’ve converted them to your way of thinking, then you can love them fully.    Now, if they persecute you, you might want to pray for them, but you can certainly consider them your enemy.  If they say things on social media that contradict your viewpoints, or even worse put down your viewpoints, by all means take them to task.  Call them out.  Throw in some name calling and put downs.  After all, it’s your job to change their mind that you may be children of your Father in heaven. I mean, even though He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous, you don’t need to send showers of love and blessing to the unrighteous.  That’s God’s job.  Yours is to call them out!   If you love those who don’t love you, how are you going to make a difference in this world?   And if you greet those who are not your own people, you are just watering down the gospel.  You should fight against them with all your might.   Just don’t hate them.   If you can just keep from hating them, then you are doing more than the pagans and are justified.   Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect.  And do everything you can to make sure everyone else is as perfect as you are.
