[QUOTE="SteveIndy, post: 71977271, member: 202439"] The context in which Jesus spoke is exactly the context it should be taken. Jesus did not prefix His words with, “The following words are to be taken as relating to personal relationships only,” you have added this pretext to justify evil. “Love your enemy” means love your enemy and not love your enemy who you are personal with, that is called creative interpretation which, in all honesty, is just a lie. I have given you plenty of “inspired” Scripture to substantiate your error yet you maintain that God has not spoken on this subject. I think this might be the same “hardness of heart” that plagued the Jews. As far as the Centurion passages are concerned they could be just as easily used to support my argument as yours. An argument from silence is no argument at all. Jesus and Peter give no direction one way or the other so the verses cannot be used to support your position. John, on the other hand, was speaking from an O.T. position, remember “The Law and the prophets were until John.” Those disciples who were the closest to the Apostles after the Apostolic period, i.e. the disciples of the Apostles, who received firsthand the understanding of Christ’s teaching while it was still fresh understood as I do. Two thousand years of men using creative interpretation has resulted in evil becoming good and good becoming evil. Christ has left us with a Book and examples yet we refuse to believe but time is running out, you better check your theology. [/QUOTE]
