    This is silly christian propaganda. Christians do not love their neighbors, unless their neighbors share their fairy fantasy.

    Sorry you think of hating the sin yet residing the sinner is incorrect. What could you advise instead? Are we to assert that a incorrect executed with the aid of somebody is stable? If wrongs are actually not noted, how is the guy to understand they're doing some thing incorrect? If a individual feels that doing what's exact and proper besides as doing what's incorrect and incorrect are the two proper procedures of doing issues, then there could be no such element as sin. All way of residing and doing issues could be ideal and sinless. A instructor keeps a infant after college for doing incorrect and incorrect issues in school. Does protecting the youngster after college practice that the instructor hates the youngster, or does it shown situation and a want to show out the scholar's errant habit and practice that that form of wrongful action is truthfully no longer established? the instructor nonetheless cares with reference to the scholar and would not hate the scholar. the instructor is purely factor out a incorrect/s executed with the aid of the scholar and exhibiting disdain for it.

    It's important to spiritually grasp what's meant by those words, since that's God's spiritual law of love. What's happened has been prophesied. The scripture below refers to the church, but it is very applicable to the world in general as well. In short, people have become self-focused instead of outwardly focused.

    2 Timothy 3:1-5

    New International Version (NIV)

    3 But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. 2 People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, 3 without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, 4 treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God— 5 having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with such people.

    That's the way it's supposed to be, but unfortunately people are way too sensitive now. Tensions are high, and there's always someone fighting or getting their feelings hurt. It's hard to love when all that stuff is going on.
