Please see this most important sermon about Christianity and love.

Bible Answers: Who are our neighbors? Who are our brothers and sisters? Who are we to love?

And what does Paul say about evil people later in the same book?

Ephesians 5:11 And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove,[them].

Quote:
Matthew 7:12
Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets.
I would want someone to tell me if I'm doing wrong. Plus, we are preaching as the Bible tells us to.

2 Timothy 4:1-2 I charge thee therefore before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom;

Paul is not making a suggestion here.

Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all long suffering and doctrine.

While we at LBC do our fair share of rebuking, I want you to look at the word "reprove" I left bold for you twice. In the Greek, the word is used thusly:

a) generally with a suggestion of shame of the person convicted
b) by conviction to bring to the light, to expose
2) to find fault with, correct
a) by word
1) to reprehend severely, chide, admonish, reprove
2) to call to account, show one his fault, demand an explanation
b) by deed
1) to chasten, to punish

Jude 1:22-23 And of some have compassion, making a difference:
And others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.

Quote:
Galatians 5:22-23
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.
We are nothing but the model of the fruits of the spirit in our dealing with each other.

Again, Paul tells us.

Ephesians 5:11 And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove [them].

He then goes on to tell us more.

12 For it is shameful even to speak of the things that they do in secret. 13 But when anything is exposed by the light, it becomes visible, 14 for anything that becomes visible is light. Therefore it says,“Awake, O sleeper,
and arise from the dead,
and Christ will shine on you.”


15 Look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise but as wise, 16 making the best use of the time, because the days are evil. 17 Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is.

Quote:
Colossians 3:12
Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering;
Please see the very next verse to understand that Paul only means that between believers.

13 Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye.

Quote:
Now, I have to ask, though...why did you say that you were "compassionately" reminding me that my choice of Bible was terrible? The definition of "compassion" is "sympathetic consciousness of others' distress together with a desire to alleviate it". I wasn't distressed by my choice of Bible. You were.
I will be praying that you have found enlightenment on what compassion is, using God's Word.

Yours in Christ's Blessed Name,
Levi Jones


Christians are superior because we possess an understanding that unbelievers lack. It is through the Power of Jesus only the converted mind is able to understand what is going on in the world; what the Communists are really up to; what Satan's intentions are. Most unbelievers do not even believe in Satan and cannot understand his tactics.
