destinedtee: when you follow and serve God genuinely is when you see your enemies coming out of the woodwork. if you're not serious in your christianity, they wont bother with you. when you defile yourself with sin, you become their best friend. |

Be enlightened. This perception or perhaps doctrine is not Christ like. http:///RJ81cp http://www.thankgodforjesus.org/african-churches-praying-let-die-prayers-unscriptural/African Churches: Praying “Let Them Die” Prayers is Unscriptural jaydude: Well as for me, my opinion is that the enemies u won't kill if they don't repent wuld just kill you! |

iamswizz: Dnt pray against them,ok?... Allow them 2 kill u first.But if God says you should love your enemy,then who are you to say otherwise?After all who are you taking the prayer to,is it not to the same God? What do you think he will do with that kind of prayer? |

destinedtee: Considering Matthew 5:44(But i say unto you,Love your enemies,bless them that curse you,and pray for them that despitefully use you and persecute you) and Luke 6:27(But i say unto you which hear,Love your enemies,do good to them which hate you) Is it then biblical to desire their hurt,wish them evil or even pray against them? this is the passage: Matthew 5 44 But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; Luke 6: 31 And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise. blind hate is what the christian is not supposed to engage in. if you do such, you really should consider yourself an unbeliever and even some unbelievers do not show high levels of blind hatred like christians. |

NET1:How are you sure that the boy never prayed?Does prayer even stops death?Is it not better to die while keeping the word of God than to live or die disobeying him?Why cant people who claim to be believers trust God when he says vengeance is his? |

Seek the lord, pick up your Bible and read it. Everything you need to know is in there, yes God said love your enemies, and pray for them because if you are a true child of God, your enemies is his enemies, unless they repent and give their heart to God. I remember reading someone ask should we love the Devll? there is no where in the word of God where he tells us to love the devil, Jesus said he came to destroy the works of the devil. When Jesus said love your enemies he's talking about people, because it was people you and me who he died for, many times people let the devil use them but God is in control at all times. |
