Examples of Loving Enemies


Jesus

Luke 23:34  

Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing.” And they divided up his clothes by casting lots.

Elisha

2 Kings 6:22-23 

22 “Do not kill them,” he answered. “Would you kill men you have captured with your own sword or bow? Set food and water before them so that they may eat and drink and then go back to their master.”

23 So he prepared a great feast for them, and after they had finished eating and drinking, he sent them away, and they returned to their master. So the bands from Aram stopped raiding Israel's territory.

Stephen

Acts 7:60  

Then he fell on his knees and cried out, “Lord, do not hold this sin against them.” When he had said this, he fell asleep.

Paul

Romans 9:3

 For I could wish that I myself were cursed and cut off from Christ for the sake of my brothers, those of my own race,

Romans 10:1  

Brothers, my heart's desire and prayer to God for the Israelites is that they may be saved.
