those h llkra while revealing hatred for those it dis likes the love of christ is not on so low a level when jesus told them to love their enemies he was uttering a revolutionary idea re was frankly tell ing them to do what only the grace of ood could enable them to do in reveal ing their miserable helplessness he was inviting them to a new sphere or lire altogether they were not to do as other men did but a their father in heaven would do they were to bless where others would curse they were to pray for those they would naturally hate be cause of spite and penrcullon it is only so that they can reveal thxmsclves to be children of their father in heaven it is a great love that is here net before us it is more than that of brotherhood and higher even than earth ly friendship it is fatherly love a son may be an enemy tothe father without the father being an enemy to the son an offspring may reveal hate to a parent but the parent keeps an loving ceaseless ly so tt is that ood loves he sends the rain on the just his ownand the unjust those who do despite to his grace why because the quality of his love is that broad and pitying kind he hath not dealt a 1th us after our sin ps 103 10 such mercy should make us merciful 48 it is only so that i we con n veal ourselves as the true chll- dron or ood our distinction is to be i the greatness of our love we ore to surpass the fraternal
