Why do Christians love their enemies?

[Keltoi]

No- we can hardly create anything equivalent to the fire of hell. But we have to try. That is what courts and laws are for, for justice.



But that isn't what Muslims believe. God doesn't love every single one of us- He only loves who believe in Him and do good deeds. He loves us because we earn it.

Us being His creation isn't enough to qualify us to be loved by Him, we have to earn His love... Just being a creation isn't enough, God isn't obliged to love everything He creates...

Just a difference between Christianity and Islam, we believe that God does indeed love all of his creations.

forget about devil , if really Christians believe God loves all , then hell is created for whom ? Only devil will live there or some/many human being , too ?



1Cor.6


[9] Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,



[10] Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.




James

Jas.4

[4] Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God.

Greetings and peace be with you Malaikah;

... does he love the devil too?:?

Today if the Devil truly repented for all that he has done, would God forgive him?

It is in our nature to sin against God, it seems it is in the devils nature to sin against God by disobeying him.

God loves each and every one of us despite our sins.

If God did not love the devil, would he hate the devil, or would he hate what the devil does?

In the spirit of searching for God's love

May all threads be able to end on a peaceful note.
