I saw this on a bumper sticker last night and considering the events around me at the moment it's appropriate.

"When Jesus said Love Your Enemies He probably meant Don't Kill Your Neighbors"

It could mean that way. I

It could mean that way. I think Jesus meant that love your enemies it means that Jesus is very forgiving person. He wants us to forgive the people who wrong us because we also do wrong ourselves. So in order for us to be forgiven by him we must also need to forgive our neighbors of whatever mistakes they have done from us.

My pastor always said that love is an action verb, so I am not sure I agree with the statement that to love is the same as to not kill. But I also wonder if we set out to love our enemies if we not might be killed in the process. Tricky subject.
