nkjv - Matthew:5:43-48

nkjv@Matthew:5:43 @ "You have heard that it was said, "You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.'

nkjv@Matthew:5:44 @ But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you,

nkjv@Matthew:5:45 @ that you may be sons of your Father in heaven; for He makes His sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust.

nkjv@Matthew:5:46 @ For if you love those who love you, what reward have you? Do not even the tax collectors do the same?

nkjv@Matthew:5:47 @ And if you greet your brethren only, what do you do more than others? Do not even the tax collectors do so?

nkjv@Matthew:5:48 @ Therefore you shall be perfect, just as your Father in heaven is perfect.
