"Love thine enemies" is identical with "Thou hast no enemies."

Blessings come out of the fire of being hated, cursed, persecuted.  Those who speak behind our backs in hateful, gossiping, ugly ways in the intension to harm our reputations or to try to stop our good are removed through Love.

It is said, “Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God's elect?  It is God that justifieth.”1

When we are praying to God He warns us of the attempts of the back stabbing of evil.  We can, right there, pray to love our enemies, to do good to those who try to persecute us, to treasure them as our own family, and to heal the situation that is trying to take place with our armor of Love. 2

"Love thine enemies" is identical with "Thou hast no enemies." Wherein is this conclusion relative to those who have hated thee without a cause? Simply, in that those unfortunate individuals are virtually thy best friends. Primarily and ultimately, they are doing thee good far beyond the present sense which thou canst entertain of good. 3

When we are warned of what evil is trying to do, separate us and His children through hate, resentment, unkindness, the only way to heal this situation is through Love.  God is Love and He justifies, adjusts, removes.  All we are to do is love, forgive, and lift our fellow man above the activity and temptations of hatred.

Love one another today and be blessed.
