Gospel of MatthewSteve Gregg
In this talk, Steve Gregg delves into Matthew 5:43-48, where Jesus illustrates God's attitude towards the law and righteousness. Jesus challenges the common belief of hating enemies and emphasizes the importance of loving one's enemies, citing the example of a Samaritan who helped a Jewish man.
