Bible on Enemies

(Christmas, Bonus Quote)

How does God expect us to treat our enemies?

"Listen, all of you.

  • Love your enemies. Do good to those who hate you.
  • Pray for the happiness of those who curse you; implore God's blessing on those who hurt you.
  • If someone slaps you on one cheek, let him slap the other too!
  • If someone demands your coat, give him your shirt besides.
  • Give what you have to anyone who asks you for it; and when things are taken away from you, don't worry about getting them back.
  • Treat others as you want them to treat you. Do you think you deserve credit for merely loving those who love you? Even the godless do that!
  • And if you do good only to those who do you good is that so wonderful? Even sinners do that much!
  • And if you lend money only to those who can repay you, what good is that? Even the most wicked will lend to their own kind for full return!
  • Love your enemies! Do good to them! Lend to them! And don't be concerned about the fact that they won't repay.
  • Then your reward from heaven will be very great, and you will truly be acting as sons of God: for He is kind to the unthankful and to those who are very wicked. Try to show as much compassion as your Father does."


Luke 6:27-36, TLB

Thats what Gandhi did;

he was carrying Bible always, and he followed christ steps;

if someone slap you on your one cheek,show them another one;

When British wanted to arrest gandhi;he went himself along with his followers;

what else can your enemies do;
They can kill; but they cann`t kill your spirit;but they cann`t STOP our struggle/movement.

it is better to die for our cause with 498A than die Every second living with high headed wife.
