All Saints Day (Luke 6:20-31)

Gospel Message from Pastor William.

Jesus teaches the disciples about who will receive blessings and who will receive anguish. Then, if that is not difficult enough, he goes on the tell those “that listen” to love their enemies and do to their enemies that which they would have their enemies to do to them. But, Jesus, couldn’t we just agree to not wish harm on our enemies? Couldn’t we just ignore our enemies? Couldn’t we just…? No! says Jesus, I want you to actually love them and treat them well.
