Here's the irony....Paul described the act of treating wickedness with kindness...
We understand this to be godly behavior, "treating wickedness with kindness"; but then blame the "damned" for what God will do to them in the hell that God created. Which includes the worst sadistic torture imaginable. (burning in fire and brimstone for eternity with no hope of escape) Even for those who have never so much as heard the name of Jesus. What's wrong with this picture? Does God measure up to His own standard of godliness?
Matthew 5:43-48
“You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ 44 But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, 45 that you may be children of your Father in heaven. He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous. 46 If you love those who love you, what reward will you get? Are not even the tax collectors doing that? 47 And if you greet only your own people, what are you doing more than others? Do not even pagans do that? 48 Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect.
