“Man is the same today that he has always been. He is a rebel against God. He may, in some generations, hide his rebellion a little more carefully than at other times, but there is no change in his heart. The men who builded the city against God back in the days of Babylon had the same hatred as that which possessed the men who nailed the Lord Jesus Christ to the cross.” MenHeartMayLittlesTodayChristianJesusChristCitiesLordGenerationsHe ManJesus ChristCrossesHatredRebellionRebelPossessedPreacherLord Jesus ChristBabylon Author:Donald Barnhouse
“What right has a man to ask Jesus to forgive him, when his heart is still burning with hatred or festering with grudges against a fellow-creature?

“The love for our enemies takes us along the way of the cross and into fellowship with the Crucified. The more we are driven along this road, the more certain is the victory of love over the enemy's hatred. For then it is not the disciple's own love, but the love of Jesus Christ alone, who for the sake of his enemies went to the cross and prayed for them as he hung there.” WayCertainJesusChristEnemyVictoryJesus ChristCrossesHatredSakeDrivenHungDiscipleFellowshipChrist Alone Book:A testament to freedom: the essential writings of Dietrich Bonhoeffer Source: A testament to freedom: the essential writings of Dietrich Bonhoeffer
