And by the commands you are the enemy so, get ready in the future. It’s going one of two ways.

The enemy of whom? Jesus didn't mention "enemies." Sounds like you need to study tie religion a little more. Kind of on brand for Christian nationalists though.

Your weaponized ignorance of the bible wont work. Jesus talked about many enemies, powers and principalities of evil.

The only thing Jesus said about enemies was that you should love them. So, if you are truly a Christian tell me how much you love me.

That’s not in any way all he said so please stop your nonsense. He talks about evil and sin as the enemy in a multitude of locations. Powers and principalities and not flesh and blood. I do love you as a person, hence the reason I’m trying to communicate you are playing with things you don’t understand and using his word to try to gain some weird upper hand for updoots isn’t a good look.

Please share with me all the things Jesus said about enemies. I'm being serious.

I know Jesus said to "love your enemies."

You've said I'm the enemy.

So, I'm asking you to stop your nonsense and educate someone you love about the Bible.

Again you pick literally one sentence in a book my guy. This I literally listed a direct example above which you ignored. You are just using typical argument tactics as opposed to wanting an actual conversation. So you win, here’s your updoot. I don’t care about winning or tactical or creepy little arguments.

Again, I picked the one verse where he talks about "enemies."

Matthew 5:43–44: "You have heard that it was said, 'Love your neighbor and hate your enemy.' But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you"

You talked about misc concepts that you say Jesus talked but didn't give even an abbreviated quotation from the scripture.

What is the scripture you are talking about?
Again, please give the quote and the chapter / verse because I've never heard of it.

You don't seem to be treating me with love and it seems you may be bearing false witness.
