MASS INDOCTRINATION-DAY 7
Bible references: Matthew 22:37-39, Matthew 5:44-45, Luke 6:35, Romans 12:20, Matthew 5:42, Malachi 4:2
Greetings MCGI. It is indeed by God's mercy that we are alive to see another beautiful day. Brother Eli always provides us with fresh teachings in the Indoctrination program. We consider quite a few things in today's session.
Matthew 22:37-39 talks on the area of love for God as being the first and great commandment of God.
Love for Go means doing that which pleases Him. If we claim to love God and do things which grieves Him, then we don't actually love Him. It passage went further to tell us to love our neighbors as well. God is never in support of hatred. You either love someone or hate the person, and God commands that we love instead of hate.
Brother Eli made us know that the purpose of us being on earth is to be doers of good works. And the book of Luke 6:35 admonishes us not to faint from doing so, even down to our enemies. Our enemies should not be exempted when we are carrying out good works to people. This is what makes us Christians.
We are not to react in the same way our enemies do towards us. But a lot of people actually behave in this manner. Romans 12:20 tells us to be hospitable to our enemies instead of being hostile to them. As Christians, we don't repay evil with evil, we repay it with good works.
