Why would Christ love people that are not allowed through the pearly gates? If they are not allowed into Heaven then they are the enemy. There is at least one person in the bible that Jesus didn't love and he was sent to hell, which is where, I believe, the Klintonites will be going. For good ol' Billy to get in front of a national audience and say BC should be a minister is totally preposterous, inappropriate and inexcusable unless of course Billy asks for forgiveness.

Why indeed, but he does. Think about that for a minute. Who said, "love your enemies"?

Because the Father did.For God so loved the WORLD that he gave his only begotten son.God's Grace is his unmerited gift to all.

I asked you to name scripture supporting your opinion.

You have not done this.

Read John 3:16

The statement of the Lord is that he loved us, so He sacrificed His son, so that our sins would be paid in full. That we could then ask forgiveness and have eternal life.

Love came before sacrifice. His Sacrifice before forgiveness.

Jesus doesn't hate anyone, he has perfect forgiveness for all sinners. And it's the sinners who take the road to Hell, it's not Jesus who throws them down into the pit. Even the unrepentent are loved by Christ, and their souls are mourned when they choose the path of damnation. Would you hate your child, if he sinned, or would you mourn his chosen path, while still loving him?
