Meet the Apostles: loving your neighbors and enemies by ric Gustafson
Luke 10:27 says love your neighbor as yourself. The question we ask next is who is my neighbor?. Jesus was asked that very question. He answered that question with a parable. It was about a Jewish man who was attacked on a road and left for dead. Two people walked, saw him and went their way. A third a Samaritan stopped, saw him and tended to his wounds. Jesus next asked his own question. He asked which of the three who saw the injured man was a neighbor. Someone replied the one who showed him mercy. Jesus said yes now go and do likewise.
As followers of Jesus, we are to love and accept others regardless of differences. Jesus loves and accepts all people. As followers of Jesus, we are to do the same.
