Duties to Enemies


Love them

 Matthew 5:44  

But I tell you: Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you,

Luke 6:27  

“But I tell you who hear me: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you,

Bless them

Matthew 5:44  

But I tell you: Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you,

Luke 6:28  

Bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you.

Do good to them

Matthew 5:44  

But I tell you: Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you,

Lend them, be kind to them, be merciful to them

Luke 6:34-36  

34 And if you lend to those from whom you expect repayment, what credit is that to you? Even ‘sinners’ lend to ‘sinners,’ expecting to be repaid in full.

35 But love your enemies, do good to them, and lend to them without expecting to get anything back. Then your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High, because he is kind to the ungrateful and wicked.

36 Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful.
