How can you not hate the sinner?

[somar]

---

i think human as we are, our tendency really is to hate especially for those people nga naka sakit sa ato. and truly it's so hard to forgive and love our enemies and people who are "unlovable." But still why does the bible say "love others as yourself", and "love your enemies"? in fact it even says "what good is it if you love those only who love you? even the unbelievers do that". is it really possible to love like Jesus? When Jesus was crucified He said "Father forgive them for they do not know what they are doing" speaking about the people who crucified him in the cross. There was no resentment in him, but only love for his enemies.

A verse in the bible gives us a clue. it says "She loved much, for she has been forgiven much." what it says here simply is this: that those who truly have received the forgiveness and mercy of God will be able to love sinners just like us, realizing that though we are sinners and offenders of God, He has forgiven us through His son Jesus. mao na ang John 3:16, "For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only begotten Son that whosoever believes in Him shall have eternal life."

I hope this will help.

dba it's said that "hate the sin and not the sinner"...?

but unsaon man na., mu.hate man jud ka sa sinner.., especially if what he has done can ruin ur family...,? that u cant even feel any remorse from him..,? that para niya what he did to your family is just okay when he knows that for you super dili okay iya gbuhat?

how can you not hate the sinner?

i am trying to be a good person.., a good daughter.., a good sister..,

but what he has done to the family is bringing disgrace to each and everyone of us..,

natural feeling lang na nga magsuko pud ta sa sinner

^^mao jud..ana man jud na...dili mana malikayan na ma.hate nimo ang sinner but not the sin...

just forgive them nalang....for what they have done...

its better to let it out karon, rather than imo na ipatigum sa sulod, basin muresult na ug bad things nuon.

in this confusing world... it is not easy to decide whether we should love the sinner or hate the sinner....

even the religious doctrines are confusing..... they say love your neighbor...
and they also say... thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's wife...

how can you love your neighbor if you shalt not covet thy neighbor.....
so....you have to covet your neighbor so you can love your neighbor

Hehehehehehe!!
