Stop Cursing

Matt.5:44 But I tell you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who mistreat you and persecute you.

We live in a world of hating and much cursing of our enemies, we hardly bless those we love, let alone our enemies, but most of us confess faith in the person of Jesus Christ who did the exact opposites. Moreover, he stated the proof of being of him, that is, a Christian; we would be blessing our enemies, instead of cursing them, but how, and what did Christ mean?

Understand Cursing In The Bible?

Cursing; we all understand cursing because we have all been cursed. or have cursed some person we didn't like. But perhaps, we have never thought of cursing as being a “judgment” of that person, as worthless of God's blessings?

In context, Christ Jesus often spoke about judging others with a heart of cursing, what does this mean? It means, Christ Jesus was born under the righteous law of God, given through Moses, the law was a judgment of all those under it, simply put, because none could meet it in their own goodness or righteousness; it was curse for them, rather than serving them, or glorifying them, band blessing them. The nation of Israel was actually condemned under the curse of sin by the law.

Romans 3:19 Now we know that whatever things the law says, it speaks to those who are under the law, that every mouth may be closed, and all the world may be brought under the judgment of God.

However, God did bless His enemies, those who broke His law with the blessing of forgiveness by innocent animal blood; So they could atone for their sins, making them whole, or right before YHWH, rather than suffer the consequence of their evil actions against violating His righteous law.

So, YHWH blessed those cursing Him, in giving them good, or a blessing of forgiveness for their evil actions in cursing Him!

Galatians 3:10 For as many as are of the works of the law are under a curse. For it is written, "Cursed is everyone who doesn't continue in all things that are written in the book of the law, to do them."{Deuteronomy 27:26}

Later, YHWH would send the ultimate blessing of His love, His own Son to atone once for all times those under the curse of the law, by removing it curse all together in completing the demands of the Law by Christ Jesus own love for His Father. Thus, through Christ Jesus and his precious life all nations of our earth would bless themselves simply, by putting faith in God's love; Jesus Christ, what a blessing!

Acts 3:26 God, having raised up his servant, Jesus, sent him to you first, to bless you, in turning away everyone of you from your wickedness."

Cursing Instead of Blessing

Jesus was to say this:

Matt. 7:1 "Don't judge, so that you won't be judged. 7:2 For with whatever judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with whatever measure you measure, it will be measured to you.

When we curse someone we judge them, moreover, we not only judge them we use our standard of law to condemned them, we certainly don't bless them. When we are not willing to forgive those violating our trust, when they hurt us by breaking some rule we hold sacred, that is, believing they have disrespect us.

Romans 12:14 Bless those who persecute you; bless, and don't curse.

Subsequently, they in turn judge us, and the measure we have measure out comes back too us, which is the law of this universe, whether we understand it or not? So when we curse we get cursing back, but Jesus said to us stop judging, stop cursing, and instead bless others.

Luke 6:28 bless those who curse you, and pray for those who mistreat you.
Religious Cursing

The great deception for most Christian's is; religious cursing in the name of God. Christian's actually believe they are authorized too uses God's word in the bible to curse those of other faiths, that is, their enemies teachings, which they call false, or apostasy.

The fact are, in historical context, the nation of Israel, Christ Jesus was sent to by His Fathers own love; had apostatized from the truth time and again, and was an apostate nation when Christ came into the world, yet, YHWH blessed them.

Rom.10:18 But I say, didn't they hear? Yes, most certainly, "Their sound went out into all the earth, their words to the ends of the world."{Psalm 19:4} 10:19 But I ask, didn't Israel know? First Moses says, "I will provoke you to jealousy with that which is no nation, with a nation void of understanding I will make you angry."{Deuteronomy 32:31} 10:20 Isaiah is very bold, and says, "I was found by those who didn't seek me. I was revealed to those who didn't ask for me."{Isaiah 65:1} 10:21 But as to Israel he says, "All day long I stretched out my hands to a disobedient and contrary people."{Isaiah 65:2}

How did God bless them, as spoke above by removing of the curse of the law with the precious blood of Christ Jesus. God gave back good for evil. But do we give back good for evil as Christian's?

Matt. 5:10 Blessed are those who have been persecuted for righteousness' sake, for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven. 5:11 "Blessed are you when people reproach you, persecute you, and say all kinds of evil against you falsely, for my sake.

Those of Israel who had been cursed by the law, that is, by the religious leaders of the law; were actually blessed of God, but why? Because they had no where too go, but to God for forgiveness, no man of that nation was going to removed their legal judgment by the religious leaders, or they themselves would be cursed.

John 9:18 The Jews therefore did not believe concerning him, that he had been blind, and had received his sight, until they called the parents of him who had received his sight, 9:19 and asked them, "Is this your son, who you say was born blind? How then does he now see?" 9:20 His parents answered them, "We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind; 9:21 but how he now sees, we don't know; or who opened his eyes, we don't know. He is of age. Ask him. He will speak for himself." 9:22 His parents said these things because they feared the Jews; for the Jews had already agreed that if any man would confess him as Christ, he would be put out of the synagogue. 9:23 Therefore his parents said, "He is of age. Ask him."

However, Christ Jesus did remove and bless them, Christ did not curse those outcast by the scribes and Pharisee's he rather blessed them with words of truth and life.
Yes, rather the self-righteous scribes and Pharisee's understood it or not, they were persecuting those who they casting out from their community, they certainly did not bless them.

However, at the same time they were cursing themselves with the judgment of the law; the righteous law of God, which of course was God curse on them, hence, if God did not provide atonement for their sins. Simply put, they were measuring out death, through the laws of death, curse for curse, and getting the same back, from man, and God.

Romans 4:15 For the law works wrath, for where there is no law, neither is there disobedience.

James 4:11 Don't speak against one another, brothers. He who speaks against a brother and judges his brother, speaks against the law and judges the law. But if you judge the law, you are not a doer of the law, but a judge.

James 4:12 Only one is the lawgiver, who is able to save and to destroy. But who are you to judge another?

Life was not found in the curse of the law, because no one could be declared righteous by it, that is, blessed by it. So God had too provided a blessings for life within the law for all under it, including those scribes and Pharisee's in the blood of innocent animals upon God's mercy seat.

Levitius 16:15 "Then he shall kill the goat of the sin offering, that is for the people, and bring his blood within the veil, and do with his blood as he did with the blood of the bull, and sprinkle it on the mercy seat, and before the mercy seat:

Blinded by Cursing

The scribes and Pharisee's had blinded themselves to the measure they were measuring out, in their hate for their enemies who broke God's righteous law. Blinded by what, the law? No, but rather their own sinful heart condition, which was cursing not only their fellowman/brothers, but God, and themselves!

Yes, the zeal for self-righteousness in upholding the law blinded them into not seeing their own unrighteous heart condition measure by the law. In other words, their motivate in upholding the law was a bigger "cause" than the truth of their own heart condition, and what was that?

The cause, the ideal, which is ideology, was bigger than the person they were judging despite their own wickedness in breaking God's law in their heart.

Matt.5:21 "You have heard that it was said to the ancient ones, 'You shall not murder;'{Exodus 20:13} and 'Whoever shall murder shall be in danger of the judgment.' Matt. 5:22 But I tell you, that everyone who is angry with his brother without a cause{NU omits "without a cause".} shall be in danger of the judgment; and whoever shall say to his brother, 'Raca{"Raca" is an Aramaic insult, related to the word for "empty" and conveying the idea of empty-headedness.}!' shall be in danger of the council; and whoever shall say, 'You fool!' shall be in danger of the fire of Gehenna.{or, Hell}

They believed the "cause" was greater than any one person unrighteous life, they believed they were the upholder of the ideal righteousness; by upholding the ideal making them righteous, hence, they were cursing, and not blessing their enemies, It was their cursing by judgments of the law, which they thought made them righteous ones among the people of Israel.

Believing they were authorized to hate by law, moreover, they were proud of it! Voilently hating one another by the law; loving it with a zeal in judging others weakness by the law; policing the nation with an outward righteousness towards evil by destroying their enemies against the law.

Matthew 23:23 "Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you tithe mint, dill, and cumin,{ cumin is an aromatic seed from Cuminum cyminum, resembling caraway in flavor and appearance. It is used as a spice.} and have left undone the weightier matters of the law: justice, mercy, and faith. But you ought to have done these, and not to have left the other undone.

Matthew 18:33 Shouldn't you also have had mercy on your fellow servant, even as I had mercy on you?'

Matthew 12:7 But if you had known what this means, 'I desire mercy, and not sacrifice,'{Hosea 6:6} you would not have condemned the guiltless.
Curse of The Heart

Yes, the Pharisee's curse their own heart by blindness of cursing others with the law, they did not learn mercy, the point of the law, instead, they cursed their own heart with harsh judgments.

They never said: “I too am a wicked man, because I cannot stop sinning in my heart, how can I not show mercy on others, how can I not show compassion?”

Luke 18:10 "Two men went up into the temple to pray; one was a Pharisee, and the other was a tax collector. 18:11 The Pharisee stood and prayed to himself like this: 'God, I thank you, that I am not like the rest of men, extortioners, unrighteous, adulterers, or even like this tax collector. 18:12 I fast twice a week. I give tithes of all that I get.' 18:13 But the tax collector, standing far away, wouldn't even lift up his eyes to heaven, but beat his breast, saying, 'God, be merciful to me, a sinner!' 18:14 I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other; for everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, but he who humbles himself will be exalted."

No rather, the law harden their hearts, blinding them to the curse they were under by the same law.

Matt. 5:23 "If therefore you are offering your gift at the altar, and there remember that your brother has anything against you,
5:24 leave your gift there before the altar, and go your way. First be reconciled to your brother, and then come and offer your gift.
5:25 Agree with your adversary quickly, while you are with him in the way; lest perhaps the prosecutor deliver you to the judge, and the judge deliver you to the officer, and you be cast into prison.
5:26 Most certainly I tell you, you shall by no means get out of there, until you have paid the last penny.{literally, kodrantes. A kodrantes was a small copper coin worth about 2 lepta (widow's mites)--not enough to buy very much of anything.}

Matt. 5:27 "You have heard that it was said, {TR adds "to the ancients,"} 'You shall not commit adultery;'{Exodus 20:14}
5:28 but I tell you that everyone who gazes at a woman to lust after her has committed adultery with her already in his heart.

Stop Cursing By Law

The scribes and Pharisee's could not stop cursing by the law, their minds and hearts were twisted by the anger of seeing so clearly mankind's unrighteousness against the law of God, they could see no good in them, what does this mean?

Luke 7:36 One of the Pharisees invited him to eat with him. He entered into the Pharisee's house, and sat at the table. 7:37 Behold, a woman in the city who was a sinner, when she knew that he was reclining in the Pharisee's house, she brought an alabaster jar of ointment. 7:38 Standing behind at his feet weeping, she began to wet his feet with her tears, and she wiped them with the hair of her head, kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment.
7:39 Now when the Pharisee who had invited him saw it, he said to himself, "This man, if he were a prophet, would have perceived who and what kind of woman this is who touches him, that she is a sinner."

It meant that by law, no man is righteous, so no one could stand before the power of the judges of law, they could make any person worthy of death by the law.

This power was unrighteous power seating themselves as god's in the temple of YHWH. Thus, their own heart were evil, and they thought God's heart was evil, but God did not give the law for evil, but love towards mankind to break up he works of the devil. God was helping mankind up, out of a dark whole in which they had blindly had fallen into by Adam's sin, but how.

Matthew 15:14 Leave them alone. They are blind guides of the blind. If the blind guide the blind, both will fall into a pit."

Very simply, by truth, what does this mean? It mean, mankind is very busy in preaching the truth of God, but are blinded just like the scribes and Pharisee's in truth of their own heart condition.

The see the sins of their brothers, they seek the truth of God, but the truth of mankind real condition must be known first in relationship to God, for them to know the truth of God, what does this mean.

Matt. 7:3 Why do you see the speck that is in your brother's eye, but don't consider the beam that is in your own eye? 7:4 Or how will you tell your brother, 'Let me remove the speck from your eye;' and behold, the beam is in your own eye? 7:5 You hypocrite! First remove the beam out of your own eye, and then you can see clearly to remove the speck out of your brother's eye.

The law pointed to mankind true condition of sin, it made clear, mankind needed a greater relationship than his own judgments of right and wrong to have a relationship of life with YHWH again, like Adam and Eve in paradise.

Hence, the righteous law of God, given too Moses, to educated the nation Israel. Anytime we are criticize, judged, we feel the person criticizing us, hates us. Yes, God criticized the nation of Israel, but also blessed them in the forgiveness of the blood. This forgiveness, was the hope of a better time when God would no longer judge the nation or criticize the nation.

Psalms 27:7 Hear, Yahweh, when I cry with my voice. Have mercy also on me, and answer me.

The nations truth was in God provide mercy through the blood, they could never become self-righteous, if they looked to the meaning of the blood they would stop cursing each other and show compassion and mercy on each other.

Micah 7:18 Who is a God like you, who pardons iniquity, and passes over the disobedience of the remnant of his heritage? He doesn't retain his anger forever, because he delights in loving kindness.

The power of God was in the blood, not the law, as they wanted to imagine, but in God strength through mercy seat of shed blood. Far greater power does it take to bless those cursing you. If God were not love, he could not withhold his righteous anger and no man living would have a hope of a better relationship with God.

But with criticism comes hate, what every measure you measure out will come back to you. God had criticized the condition of mankind, by his righteous law, thus, hate came back too Him unless one put faith in the blood of innocent animals as God great mercy.

Those going beyond the righteousness of the Law judgment into God's love, through undeserved mercy by the seat of mercy could prepare their hearts for the coming messiah.

They could say in their heart by faith: “I believe God, He is good, and His ways our righteous, He will have mercy, if I put faith in his love for the human race.”

In other word, they had a choice to I return evil to God, by cursing Him with by evil judgments, or believe God wanted too pardon their errors, and believe He is a good and righteous Father, that wants to give and does give good gift to his children upon earth. Can I entrust myself to His good judgments for life?

Returning Evil For Good to Our Neighbor

Who really is our neighbor? Much more important do we have two sets of standards one for those we love, and one for our neighbor? Do we demand justice from our neighbor when they violate some religious principle, and let our family, and those we love off, for the same mistake?

Matt.5:46 For if you love those who love you, what reward do you have? Don't even the tax collectors do the same? 5:47 If you only greet your friends, what more do you do than others? Don't even the tax collectors do the same? 5:48 Therefore you shall be perfect, just as your Father in heaven is perfect.

Do we return evil to our neighbor after God has done us good, so we curse our neighbor with God's righteous judgment from the bible while letting off those of our own group, do we like the Pharisee's see only the hearts of our neighbor by the laws of the bible as evil deserving God's judgment?

Many Christian's wrongly believe that when the apostle Paul stated this:

Rom. 12:20 Therefore "If your enemy is hungry, feed him. If he is thirsty, give him a drink; for in doing so, you will heap coals of fire on his head."{Proverbs 25:21-22} 12:21 Don't be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

That overcoming evil with good is no more than a physical act, what does this mean? It means that a Christian's may or may not forgive the person or stop judging them by the bible, rather they do some hypocritical good for the person, and that in their mind is not retuning evil for evil, but it is not, it is much more.

Levitius 19:17 "'You shall not hate your brother in your heart. You shall surely rebuke your neighbor, and not bear sin because of him.

When a person returns good for evil, they remove their judgment of the person, that is cursing them by the laws of the bible, and loves the person as God loves us, what indeed does this mean?

Finding The Truth of God's Love

The truth is impartial, it dose not have two sets of scales, it judges righteously the same, that is, when we are sinner condemned by God, we are all sinners condemned by God. There is not special and unspecial according to God's righteousness.

The same is true of God's love, there is not impartiality with God and His love partial. So what is God's love, which is the most important question a Christian's can asks themselves?

What this means is God, YHWH loved His Son Christ Jesus, and that is the same relationship He wants with us. It is that ideal perfect relationship that God has with His Son Christ Jesus that is the template God uses to redeem mankind back into a perfect son, Father relationship with Him, this is the love God has for the world, yes, the world, not just a special little group.

1 John 2:2 And he is the atoning sacrifice{"atoning sacrifice" is from the Greek "hilasmos," an appeasing, propitiating, or the means of appeasement or propitiation--the sacrifice that turns away God's wrath because of our sin.} for our sins, and not for ours only, but also for the “whole world”
Yes, God's enemies, those that you maybe cursing by your religion, He loves?

1 John 5:19 We know that we are of God, and the whole world lies in the power of the evil one.

1 John 2:16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, isn't the Father's, but is the world's.

Cursing the world with God's word is cursing yourselves, but how? Because God is not cursing the world, He is rather blessing the world so that He may gain as many lives as He can. He is not hating the world returning evil for evil, but rather loving the world, so they might come to know Him as love, how does He do that?

Matt.5:45 that you may be children of your Father who is in heaven. For he makes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the just and the unjust.

Our heavenly Father does that by giving us the blessing of His Son precious life, removing His judgment of us, how? By removing what heaven and earth could not remove, God's righteous judgment of us by His law.

John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish, but have eternal life. 3:17 For God didn't send his Son into the world to judge the world, but that the world should be saved through him.

So now when we return judgment for judgment we get the same judgment back. We do not get love and forgiveness back from those we judge. Although, what seems weak in the sight of men, which is, power in judging each other as a strength, is actually a weak things of God.

Matt.5:17 "Don't think that I came to destroy the law or the prophets. I didn't come to destroy, but to fulfill.
5:18 For most certainly, I tell you, until heaven and earth pass away, not even one smallest letter{literally, iota} or one tiny pen stroke{or, serif} shall in any way pass away from the law, until all things are accomplished. 5:19 Whoever, therefore, shall break one of these least commandments, and teach others to do so, shall be called least in the Kingdom of Heaven; but whoever shall do and teach them shall be called great in the Kingdom of Heaven. 5:20 For I tell you that unless your righteousness exceeds that of the scribes and Pharisees, there is no way you will enter into the Kingdom of Heaven.

It is really weak when the power of God is so misunderstood by Christian's those claiming to honor and love God , what does this mean?

John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish, but have eternal life. 3:17 For God didn't send his Son into the world to judge the world, but that the world should be saved through him.

The Power of Good for Evil

Many believe in our fleshly world, the ultimate power in killing their enemy, is the supreme power, but you and me need to ask ourselves the question is this the ultimate power of God? Does He define Himself as the tough person in our universe, having such power that those on earth live in terror and fear of Him unleashing His hate?

No! God does not define Himself by the ultimate power of killing us, He on the other hand, defines Himself as love, not the pervert love of most human with sin, but a love based on such superior morals standards that it cannot be define in the rational way by men of law, but only under the freedom of love.

Listen carefully to what God's love is:

1Cor.13:4 Love is patient and is kind; love doesn't envy. Love doesn't brag, is not proud, 13:5 doesn't behave itself inappropriately,doesn't seek its own way, is not provoked, takes no account of evil; 13:6 doesn't rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth; 13:7 bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. 13:8 Love never fails.

Who of us can judge rightly, when such love has been shown to us? We cannot, because we cannot live in God's love, but for a moment, what does this mean, it means we can show love, but we are not love, where God is first and always love, He never is unrighteous, He is the perfect judge of mankind. Something His own Son Christ Jesus understood, and worshiped.

Matthew 19:17 He said to him, "Why do you call me good? No one is good but one, that is, God. But if you want to enter into life, keep the commandments."

We Must Return Evil Sometimes?

Yes, that is the rational for religious institution(s) in order too maintaining their power upon earth, it is true they must kill others at time in the name of God, either physically or spiritually to protect their interest, this is the way of the world.

But is their position to destroy their enemy or reprove them for doing unrighteousness? Do they instead take God's position and determine by God's love that a person should be called a fool, hating them in their heart, claiming it God judgment of them. Do they throw them out as wicked into the darkness where the weeping and gnashing of their teeth our? Do they cut them off, hating them as though destroyed by God at the coming Great Tribulation as unrighteous, not redeemable by God?
Titus 3:1 Remind them to be in subjection to rulers and to authorities, to be obedient, to be ready for every good work,
3:2 to speak evil of no one, not to be contentious, to be gentle, showing all humility toward all men. 3:3 For we were also once foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving various lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another. 3:4 But when the kindness of God our Savior and his love toward mankind appeared, 3:5 not by works of righteousness, which we did ourselves, but according to his mercy, he saved us, through the washing of regeneration and renewing by the Holy Spirit,

Christian's are not fools to unrighteousness, but neither are the authorized as God instrument of judgment upon all those not obeying the precepts of some religious institutions upon earth. It is instead God's Son who is God instrument of judgment upon the human race, not a man made institution. Why than has God not judged the world and destroyed it after all these many years?

Heb.1:13 But which of the angels has he told at any time, "Sit at my right hand, until I make your enemies the footstool of your feet?"{Psalm 110:1}

It is because He is love, He is not judgment? What does this mean, it means, God is love, and love does not fail, how is that true with so much unrighteousness upon earth?

It mean simply, that Adam and Eve chose to be a god, deciding what is good and evil for themselves, this grain, is the grain of sin in all of us, not only do we decide what is good and evil for ourselves, we go further, we judge what is good and evil for others, again what does this mean?

It means, that God is the rightful judge of us, no human was put in charge of judging for God since Christ Jesus over the nations of our earth, we take God position and each day by our sin when we judge people good and bad, and because we are not life, that is, love we judge them unrighteous cutting them off everlasting from our love, our association. God on the other hand, is love, he judges with life in view, what does this mean?

It means God judges righteously, he judges with hope and provides the way for us to change, from love. He does not see us negatively, like we humans do, why? Because we judge from laws of right wrong based upon sin, the same sin Adam and Eve did, in choosing for themselves as good and evil.

Luke 12:14 But he said to him, "Man, who made me a judge or an arbitrator over you?"

Luke 12:57 Why don't you judge for yourselves what is right?

The nation of Israel had human for God's as judges, and the people for the most part suffered, and became as harsh as the judges over them. Subsequently, there were far more unfaithful judges of the Jew's in unrighteousness than there were good ones judging faithfully for God, why?

John 5:30 I can of myself do nothing. As I hear, I judge, and my judgment is righteous; because I don't seek my own will, but the will of my Father who sent me.

It is Because men return evil for good, they were not created to be god's over others, they were created as brother, and than forced into judgment by their sins.

John 8:15 You judge according to the flesh. I judge no one.

John 8:16 Even if I do judge, my judgment is true, for I am not alone, but I am with the Father who sent me.

Judging by the Law of Freedom?

The idea of human's judging by God's love, is difficult to say the least, but those having God's Spirit appointed by Christ within his body as members of his headship, could judge with the law of freedom, which is called the royal law. In other words, the law of the King, God, the law of love.

1 John 4:18 There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear has punishment. He who fears is not made perfect in love.

Why is it called the law of freedom because it is free of fear of the sins of the flesh, how can one say that? It is because incorruptible spirit person such as God and Christ have no sin, or corruption from sin in them, hence, death by sin. So they are completely free to judge in love, yes freedom, why?

Romans 2:1 Therefore you are without excuse, O man, whoever you are who judge. For in that which you judge another, you condemn yourself. For you who judge practice the same things.

James 2:8 However, if you fulfill the royal law, according to the Scripture, "You shall love your neighbor as yourself,"{Leviticus 19:18} you do well. 2:9 But if you show partiality, you commit sin, being convicted by the law as transgressors. 2:10 For whoever keeps the whole law, and yet stumbles in one point, he has become guilty of all. 2:11 For he who said, "Do not commit adultery,"{Exodus 20:14; Deuteronomy 5:18} also said, "Do not commit murder."{Exodus 10:13; Deuteronomy 5:17} Now if you do not commit adultery, but murder, you have become a transgressor of the law. 2:12 So speak, and so do, as men who are to be judged by a law of freedom.

Because love does not look at its enemy as evil, but with love, in hoping all things and believing all things, and endure all things, but above all it does not return evil for evil!

1 John 4:8 He who doesn't love doesn't know God, for God is love.

It rather returns good for evil, it returns the law of freedom when the unrighteous uses the laws of evil. They return fire for fire from the highest power they can call upon usually God's word the bible, but Love does not have two sets of scales one for the wicked, like institutional religion do, and one for their own people the law of love.

1 Peter 2:17 Honor all men. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honor the king.

No, God does not pervert justice, He is even handed, and returns good for the evil to His enemies blessing them. As Adam and Eve found God to be true, when he let them sin, and moreover, let them live in the consequence of their sin, because it was their choice to chose evil and good, and be like God. Hence, they ate the fruitage of their tree, in bitter sweet fruit of good and bad.

1 Peter 2:1 Putting away therefore all wickedness, all deceit, hypocrisies, envies, and all evil speaking.

James 3:16 For where jealousy and selfish ambition are, there is confusion and every evil deed.

Thus,YHWH exercised love and patience, not bitterness in killing Adam and Eve for their rebelling against Him, God acted in love, which allowed them to choose as free moral agents right wrong.

But God did not return evil, how can we say that? It is because if they had remained in God's law of freedom, there was no bitter weeds, but rather only life and sweetness of good. But they chose the laws of their flesh as gods; the law is without emotion, or love, it does returns evil for those judged by it. Just as a nation has laws, the law have no emotion, it render justice; which does this mean? Those creating the law can love their children with kindness and compassion, but the law they create is without mercy, not the person creating the law, why?

James 1:13 Let no man say when he is tempted, "I am tempted by God," for God can't be tempted by evil, and he himself tempts no one.

Because the law has no life, it is dead works on paper, just like the books it is written into. The person reading and applying the law has applies the spirit of mercy and compassion, if the law gives him that freedom.

Subsequently, when a person choose law over God, they choose death written upon the pages of the bible interpret by men of laws not love. Choosing God requires faith, faith in what God in good, not evil, if the law is interpreted by men with corrupt hearts they imply God is evil, and their judgments are harsh.

1 Peter 3:9 not rendering evil for evil, or reviling for reviling; but instead blessing; knowing that to this were you called, that you may inherit a blessing.

Starting From Love Returning Good

When we start from love, we find God, we unravel the mystery of God, but how? Because justice is blind and has no emotion, but hate for those breaking the law.

1 John 4:19 We love Him, because he first loved us.

But when we hear what Christ Jesus stated about his Father we can chose to believe love, in God's love or instead law, to believe in God's love requires us to come up, to superior thought, beyond judgment into faith. Yes, faith, despite our ever sinful effort, to judge God as evil we walk on water in faith that God is love, and does good to His enemies despite the justice of law.

1 John 4:21 This commandment we have from him, that he who loves God should also love his brother.

We are soundly condemned in every possible way by God's justice, but it is our belief that God is a good and loving Father that lets us believe that love cannot fail, that God cannot do what is wrong to people who cannot live under love or His righteous law; that His patience and endurance in love will have certain success, so none will perishes without every possible good effort that God can do for us.

Jude 1:21 Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to eternal life.

That is truth, or God could not love the world which it spirit hates Him, or that God hates them, returning evil, because of it wickedness.

1 Timothy 1:5 but the goal of this command is love, out of a pure heart and a good conscience and unfeigned faith.

Revelation 3:19 As many as I love, I reprove and chasten. Be zealous therefore, and repent.

Hating Unrighteousness

Does this mean that Christian's cannot judge unrighteousness, no! But first they must judge themselves with the same judgment they would judge a brother or sister, what does that mean?

1Cor.11:28 But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of the bread, and drink of the cup. 11:29 For he who eats and drinks in an unworthy manner eats and drinks judgment to himself, if he doesn't discern the Lord's body.

1Cor. 11:30 For this cause many among you are weak and sickly, and not a few sleep. 11:31 For if we discerned ourselves, we wouldn't be judged. 11:32 But when we are judged, we are punished by the Lord, that we may not be condemned with the world.

It means if you are a Christian's in Christ Jesus you understand you own unrighteous condition without the righteous life of Christ Jesus imputed too you by God's own unmerited kindness; you understand there is nothing within you own goodness that commends you too God, but rather it is Christ goodness in his precious life that gives you a standing before God as righteous.

Rom. 7:18 For I know that in me, that is, in my flesh, dwells no good thing. For desire is present with me, but I don't find it doing that which is good. 7:19 For the good which I desire, I don't do; but the evil which I don't desire, that I practice. 7:20 But if what I don't desire, that I do, it is no more I that do it, but sin which dwells in me. 7:21 I find then the law, that, to me, while I desire to do good, evil is present.

With this proper understanding given you by God's Holy Spirit you cannot hate anyone. In other words, hating the person and not their actions is far beyond the laws of the flesh, what does this mean?

It means the flesh cannot separate the spirit from the flesh, it will hate someone merely for not looking correct according to judgments.

It is vast difference in judging some one eternally, that is, their soul and by their unrighteousness, than returning the same good you have received by having no judgment in Christ Jesus. The flesh compounds its judgment, once the flesh looks by God's law at someone as evil it compound its judgment, it cannot see any good in the person, in its heart.

What it does in build a case against the person too support its judgment of them as evil. What has been done as good is turned into a evil motivate for doing the good. In other words, it judges the person as evil, so one may justify their hate for the person. Just like people do who cannot separate ones looks from the person, it finds that all the person does as bad because of the their looks; they are stupid, self-inflicted by their own ways cause by their looks!

The judgment of the court is finished within minutes, judge, jury, and conviction. The person feels better than the ugly over weight person who deserves what they get by not taking care of themselves.

Is man's judgment is this unrighteous, yes! And we would be a liar if would say our judgments aren't that fleshly. In other words, are own judgments are not righteous as God is righteous, no! Why? Because we are not a Spirit creator of life, we are not equipped to judge others in love, what, judgment is not love?

Yes, God's judgment is love, because He is love, He judges us with life in view, hence, His judgments are righteous, why? Because God's law are Him, they are His standards of sinless life for us that we may be at-one-ment with Him, but to be at-one-ment with Him we must be atone for, that is, atonement. God can than, see our true condition without hating us, but hating instead the unrighteousness that we do, and atone for us, blessing us with good, so we can come to love Him.

Such is not the way of humans, we judge to destroy our enemies, their present make us look bad, and feel bad, they take up our energy and time. In other words, the flesh is so unrighteous it does even want to deal with an ugly person, it has not the ability to separate its hate for the love of life in the person.

It does not value the life of others over its own life, this is why when human get God's righteous law, they become more judgmental, not less, they can see the ugly in other persons, they may have one time cared about, they become offended contributing evil motivates, because they don't accept their standards of the bible. But they compound their judgment into a religious hate for them, because they are rejecting God righteousness in not changing or believing their way, they do.

They will pass judgment into eternal Hell Fire, or judge them unworthy of eternal life with their group, yet, this the fleshly trait of evil slave; those taking Christ, God given position, in the temple of God. They are possessed with judgment, mentally wrangling until they become disease with it, they are ate up with hate, and judgment for the unrighteous.

Jude 1:8 Yet in like manner these also in their dreaming defile the flesh, despise authority, and slander celestial beings. 1:9 But Michael, the archangel, when contending with the devil and arguing about the body of Moses, dared not bring against him an abusive condemnation, but said, "May the Lord rebuke you!" 1:10 But these speak evil of whatever things they don't know. What they understand naturally, like the creatures without reason, they are destroyed in these things. 1:11 Woe to them! For they went in the way of Cain, and ran riotously in the error of Balaam for hire, and perished in Korah's rebellion.

Not Many Should Be Teachers

Without a teacher in the body of Christ being qualified by the Holy Spirit the teacher with make fleshly judgments about unrighteousness/sin. They becomes so concern with their personal efforts within the body of Christ Jesus, they judge themselves, and others with evil laws, what does this mean?

It means they don't judge like Christ with the law of Freedom, but rather the laws of the flesh, which are for the evil, not the righteous.
They become so consumed with personal righteousness through obeying rules of a certain group, they blinded themselves to where their own righteous standing comes from, thus, they receive a heavier judgment. What does this mean, they are judging with two set of scales, one for themselves and one for those sinning who are their brothers and sister in Christ.

James 3:1 Let not many of you be teachers, my brothers, knowing that we will receive heavier judgment. 3:2 For in many things we all stumble. If anyone doesn't stumble in word, the same is a perfect man, able to bridle the whole body also.

No person on earth has a righteous standing with God, unless, they receive Christ Jesus righteousness, removing their judgment by all laws of the flesh, and God's righteous law give through Moses. No they should not be a teacher if they don't understand the primary doctrines of the Christ Jesus.

Romans 2:13 For it isn't the hearers of the law who are righteous before God, but the doers of the law will be justified

Romans 3:10 As it is written, "There is no one righteous; no, not one.

Subsequently, a teacher in Christ Jesus should not return evil for evil, but rather like Christ and YHWH returning a blessing to those that curse them with the laws of the flesh. They should remind those promoting hate by judgment of their own position before God, and how they came too the position, in Christ, by God's unmerited kindness towards them.

This is the only proper judgment that God is pleased with.

Galatians 3:11 Now that no man is justified by the law before God is evident, for, "The righteous will live by faith."{Habakkuk 2:4}

James 2:7 Don't they blaspheme the honorable name by which you are called? 2:8 However, if you fulfill the royal law, according to the Scripture, "You shall love your neighbor as yourself,"{Leviticus 19:18} you do well. 2:9 But if you show partiality, you commit sin, being convicted by the law as transgressors. 2:10 For whoever keeps the whole law, and yet stumbles in one point, he has become guilty of all. 2:11 For he who said, "Do not commit adultery,"{Exodus 20:14; Deuteronomy 5:18} also said, "Do not commit murder."{Exodus 10:13; Deuteronomy 5:17} Now if you do not commit adultery, but murder, you have become a transgressor of the law.

James 2:12 So speak, and so do, as men who are to be judged by a law of freedom. 2:13 For judgment is without mercy to him who has shown no mercy. Mercy triumphs over judgment.

Jude1:21 Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to eternal life. 1:22 On some have compassion, making a distinction, 1:23 and some save, snatching them out of the fire with fear, hating even the clothing stained by the flesh.
