Love for Enemies: Luke 6:27-36 (NIV)

Posted on 01/12/2019 2:12:51 AM PST by Patriot777

In Luke 6:27-36, Jesus is preaching to a large crowd of his disciples and a great number of people who had come "...from all over Judea, from Jerusalem, and from the coastal region around Tyre and Sidon, who had come to hear him and to be healed of their diseases. Those troubled by impure spirits were cured, and the people all tried to touch him, because power was coming from him and healing them all." (Luke 6:17.6-19)

In verses 20-26, the Lord directs His teaching toward His disciples, and then starting in verse 27, towards the likely thousands gathered.


TOPICS: Current Events; General Discusssion; Prayer
KEYWORDS:
"But to you who are listening I say: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you. If someone slaps you on one cheek, turn to them the other also. If someone takes your coat, do not withhold your shirt from them. Give to everyone who asks you, and if anyone takes what belongs to you, do not demand it back. Do to others as you would have them do to you. "If you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? Even sinners love those who love them. And if you do good to those who are good to you, what credit is that to you? Even sinners do that. And if you lend to those from whom you expect repayment, what credit is that to you? Even sinners lend to sinners, expecting to be repaid in full. But love your enemies, do good to them, and lend to them without expecting to get anything back. Then your reward will be great, and you will be children of the Most High, because He is kind to the ungrateful and wicked. Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful."

My beloved FRiends, let us lift up in fervent prayer not only those in our Administration--our President, Vice President, their families and those in Congress who by their actions have proven themselves worthy to be called true Patriots and are walking Christ's Walk, but also those in the Administration and Congress whose ultimate goal is to steal, kill and destroy as they carry out the orders their master has assigned them--Satan himself. Their very visages are twisted and marred, their eyes black with a supernatural hatred as they look upon our Great Nation as something to be conquered in their quest for power, money and control. We are not warring against flesh and blood, as the Lord Jesus tells us; we are in conflict against this. Let us war in the Spirit in intercessory prayer for every Democrat, every liberal by name. Let us do what Christ says, for "The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds." (2 Corinthians 10:4)

This is exactly how it works.

Many years ago I realized that the higher levels of consciousness have inherent characteristics.

When higher consciousness such as the Holy Spirit comes to a lower level, it radiates Light. This is also why God is Light. I’ve observed that the higher the consciousness, the brighter the Light. Thus I see the Holy Spirit as a golden liquid Light while I see the higher Angel’s as a very bright Light. The brightest Light is the Light that shines through the portal from Heaven as the door opens for people to cross when they die.

I have also died, crossed over to Heaven and experienced this bright Light full blast during a severe illness. No words can describe the bliss of this experience.

The higher consciousness that radiates this Light is at a frequency that low frequency consciousness such as fear, anger and guilt can’t exist in the same space. It’s like putting a dense object in the microwave as it heats up and bursts into flames. This is the basis for the phrase “burning in hell.”

When a dense consciousness enters the higher consciousness it appears similar to a large insect such as a moth flying into one of those big electric bug zapper lights, as the sparks fly and flames appear until it is gone.

This is also how healing prayer works as the higher prayerful consciousness removes the sin that created the illness. Just as gold is heated to purify it, the human soul is heated to cleanse it.

It is impossible to be full of the Holy Spirit and not experience the Love and Light of the higher consciousness. God is Light, but God is also Love. With devoted prayer and meditation focused on God, you too can radiate this Love & Light observed from the Saints.

This is God and Jesus within us as described in John 14.
