As believers in the resurrected Christ, our treatment toward those holding different perspectives and opinions is vital to a fruitful daily walk with the Lord. Jesus called us to love even our enemies, a high hurdle for us to traverse. Whether it’s an enemy, neighbor, or family member, He did not say, “Love their opinions,” or, “Love their point of view,” or, “Love their behavior,” or to “Love their sin!” He called Christ-followers to love others personally, sincerely, and sacrificially.
