Love Your Enemies (Luke 6:27-36) — A Sermon by R.C. Sproul

Summary

The sermon's main theme is the radical Christian ethic of loving enemies, derived from Jesus' teachings in Luke 6:27-36. This teaching, though seemingly new, actually unpacks the full intent of the Old Testament's great commandment to love God and neighbor as oneself, mirroring God's own merciful and benevolent nature. The practical takeaway is that believers are called to extend this selfless love, even to their enemies, as an imitation of Christ and a reflection of God's character, not based on feelings but on action and divine mandate.
