Invite Your Enemies, maybe Your Friends if you like.
I found this very interesting in the bulletin from the St. Luke’s Anglican Church which we attended today.
Alpha Course Introduction Dinner
Invitations available to hand to your friends/enemies/acquaintances- all those in need to know Jesus and want to meet His family.
I have heard often the encouragement to invite friends and family to church but not very often my enemies. It seems like a novel idea. I suppose it would be pretty hard to be bitter toward, repay, damage, fight or even kill my enemy if I was concentrating on inviting him/her to church.
I often wondered that if I was fighting in war I would be killing someone that Jesus told me to ‘invite to church’ and ‘introduce to Jesus’ for example. I suppose if I killed him/her he would never get that chance. I suppose I would be actually condemning him, would I not?
