Just As Hate

I am currently in the process of reading 1 John. 1 John 3: 15 really spoke to me.

Hating your brothers and sisters means you are a murderer and being a murderer means you have no eternal life within you. One step further, hate doesn't just mean to have an intense dislike for someone or something, but hate can also include ill feelings no matter how big or small they are.

Any ill feelings toward anyone in the body of Christ, and also those who are living in the world, will lead you to have a sense of superiority. They may be struggling in some aspect of their life but instead of you helping them find their way, you are just there thinking how much better you are for resisting. By not helping you are spiritually killing them because how can they enter God's kingdom if they are constantly living in sin and don't know how to get out?

How can you truly be humble, like Christ was humble, if you think you are better. Though Jesus was perfect and we were born sinners, he is always kind and humble to us and always putting us first. Jesus has made the direct link to us and his father, be we must act as the link between the world and Christ. But in order to be the link we must be like Christ and have no harsh or ill feelings and hatred in our hearts.

Scripture
1 John 3: 15 (NLT)

Anyone who hates another brother or sister is really a murderer at heart. And you know that murderers don't have eternal life within them.
