Jesus also said to love our enemies. Is He only referring to those enemies in the Church?
Yes, I already mentioned this point to you before, as well. I said to you before that Jesus said that He wants us to love our enemies. Even in my recent post you are quoting I have stated that Jesus does not want us to hate anyone. But He does use the word "hate" in the sense of loving others less in regards to loving Him.
The point I wanted to make that you are not getting is that you quoted the words "thou shall not hate" as being words actually spoken by Jesus. Please show me the Scripture verse or passage where Jesus specifically states these EXACT words. You will not find them. It is dangerous to say that Jesus said something He never actually said. Sure, we may both agree that Jesus does not want us to hate anyone in the sense that we understand the word "hate," but Jesus did not specifically say the words "thou shall not hate."
