But love your enemies, and do good, and lend, expecting nothing in return; and your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High; for He Himself is kind to ungrateful and evil men. Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful. (Luke 6:35,36 NASB)
The whole of the teaching in both sets of “Sermons on the Whatever” are difficult to receive, hear, read, even believe? For instance, in Luke’s “Sermon on the Plain” he records Jesus’ words about loving enemies (6:27-36). Most people, regardless of culture or where in the world they are from, read that and find it hard to swallow.
