“Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you.” (Luke 6:27)

The vitriol and violence of the most recent election cycle demonstrates how dangerous it can be when we turn all human disagreements into a fight to the death. Jesus offered a distinct alternative to scorched earth in Luke 6:27-36.

Imagine how different our world would be took his advice love our enemies seriously. Praying for those we disagree with, and doing to others as we would have them do to us would change everything.
