Text: Luke 6:27-38 – Sometimes Jesus says things that we are okay hearing, and sometimes Jesus says things that we are not as okay hearing.  In Luke’s Gospel for today Jesus says to “love your enemies.”  Sometimes it’s hard to love the people we like, let alone our enemies.  However, how does Jesus treat His enemies?  He dies for them.  And if Jesus is going to give up His life for His enemies, whom He wants in heaven with Him, then people are not truly our enemies.  And if people are not really our enemies, and we view them as such, people that Christ died for, then maybe it makes it easier to love them?
