the enemy...
It is said to love thine enemy and pray for those that persecute you and yet we say nah not that one for he is God's enemy. Do you not reside in God? Also considering we were once enemies now called friends and given the example of Christ our Lord and savior how do we treat this enemy? And what will God think? For God asked me a question once and He said you want to destroy one of mine own creations when you are guilty and I sent you the example of my Son and you thought this would please me? So join me in prayer for the enemy that we who will judge the angels can in humility and love have hope. For Lord you said Blasphemy of the Holy Spirit wouldn't be forgiven in this age or next which I believe will be the 1000 year reign for you will be here and Satan sealed but then released for a short season where he will deceive and gather up mankind from the four corners of the world. Leading them to encompass Jerusalem and its then Lord that you at the end of this next age step out in all your glory and I'm hoping that the darkness finally comprehends you and every knee will bow and tongue confess unto you Jesus for you have been a God of free will. Then I pray that they will be cast into the lake of fire for the wages of sin is death 2nd death in this instance a spiritual death, now I whisper this next for I know there's a lot of hatred towards the enemy but with every knee bowing (acceptance) and tongue confession (repentance) that the trueness of your glory will be prophecisized by John during the millennial reign (the little book) which is that when you died fully the Son of God and Son of man is represented in the 1st physical death and 2nd Spiritual death and since You are He that holds all together for you are everywhere You and only You can call mightily out of both. Thank you Jesus! For it's said that Lucifier was kicked out of heaven his place no longer in heaven and yet we all end up on the new earth! Coincidence , I pray not Lord for those who holds onto great weeping and knashing of teeth forever and ever when ages is actually supposed to be a better translation know not what they ask for if they that are guilty and received salvation only because of your sacrifice Lord Jesus they know not what they do please forgive us all. And I pray that a day is unto a thousand years as a thousand years is to a day thanks be to God for revealing this unto your child and thanks for your sacrifice to remind us to walk in your light and abide in your vine always. For if it's a friend or loved one or even the enemy that stands before you how does that change your walk? For if it does depending on the who are you not judging for their is God the One true judge so judge as He did which was to love and all Spiritual gifts onto the cross even unto death so be a living sacrifice Holy and acceptable unto God and let every creation that be before you be a friend for no greater love can a man have than to lay down one's life for if Satan attacks then this is your trial and tribulations, your time on the cross do not harden your heart for when has God seeked after them? I Pray that the Holy Spirit giveth understanding and God bless.

I appreciate the sentiment :) I broke it into paragraphs because many have difficulty reading walls of text.

We should pray for all people, even if the object of our prayers appear a lost cause. Pray for all people around this world, even worthless rulers who are slaughtering nations weaker than they.

Ye, pray for our enemies; they need it.

We are told exactly how to treat our enemies, and there is no scripture saying that if a person is an enemy of God there is an exception to how we are to treat them. God can handle his own enemies, God does not need our help with them.

A wonderful example of God handling his enemies was near a tiny tow in Oregon--- Antelope. In the 80's a cult became so big and powerful the state of Oregon was threatened. They poisoned hundreds of people using a restaurant in The Dalles, Oregon. It is now a huge Youth Camp called Washington Family Ranch Youth Camp. Not long ago a prairie fire came through, It burned the home of the former cult leader (Rajaneesh) and left all the youth group buildings intact.

It lasted only four years.

I would probably read it if it wasn't all bold and if it had proper paragraph breaks. Nothing personal, just saying; it's too hard to read as is.

Amen Christ and the gospel is how Gods enemies will be ended

The Lord said unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool.

The Lord shall send the rod of thy strength out of Zion: rule thou in the midst of thine enemies.

Thy people shall be willing in the day of thy power, in the beauties of holiness from the womb of the morning: thou hast the dew of thy youth. The Lord hath sworn, and will not repent, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek.

The Lord at thy right hand shall strike through kings in the day of his wrath. He shall judge among the heathen, he shall fill the places with the dead bodies; he shall wound the heads over many countries. He shall drink of the brook in the way: therefore shall he lift up the head.”
‭‭Psalm‬ ‭110:1-7‬ ‭KJV‬‬

we love that the gospel offers salvstion now but often we reject the wrath that is to come on those who don’t repent and accept the gospel making themselves enemies of God who will face his wrath

when the gospel is fulfilled his enemies and those persecute his children eill
Meet his vengeance that day

“And to you who are troubled rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels, In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ: Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power;”
‭‭2 Thessalonians‬ ‭1:7-9‬ ‭

Our place is to just follow the gospel and be merciful like we’re taught so we can come to know him and be saved

For God asked me a question once and He said you want to destroy one of mine own creations when you are guilty and I sent you the example of my Son and you thought this would please me?

So join me in prayer for the enemy that we who will judge the angels can in humility and love have hope. For Lord you said Blasphemy of the Holy Spirit wouldn't be forgiven in this age or next which I believe will be the 1000 year reign for you will be here and Satan sealed but then released for a short season where he will deceive and gather up mankind from the four corners of the world.

Leading them to encompass Jerusalem and its then Lord that you at the end of this next age step out in all your glory and I'm hoping that the darkness finally comprehends you and every knee will bow and tongue confess unto you Jesus for you have been a God of free will. Then I pray that they will be cast into the lake of fire for the wages of sin is death 2nd death in this instance a spiritual death, now I whisper this next for I know there's a lot of hatred towards the enemy but with every knee bowing (acceptance) and tongue confession (repentance) that the trueness of your glory will be prophesized by John during the millennial reign (the little book) which is that when you died fully the Son of God and Son of man is represented in the 1st physical death and 2nd Spiritual death and since You are He that holds all together for you are everywhere You and only You can call mightily out of both.

Thank you Jesus! For it's said that Lucifier was kicked out of heaven his place no longer in heaven and yet we all end up on the new earth! Coincidence, I pray not Lord for those who holds onto great weeping and gnashing of teeth forever and ever when ages is actually supposed to be a better translation know not what they ask for if they that are guilty and received salvation only because of your sacrifice Lord Jesus they know not what they do please forgive us all.

And I pray that a day is unto a thousand years as a thousand years is to a day thanks be to God for revealing this unto your child and thanks for your sacrifice to remind us to walk in your light and abide in your vine always. For if it's a friend or loved one or even the enemy that stands before you how does that change your walk? For if it does depending on the who are you not judging for their is God the One true judge so judge as He did which was to love and all Spiritual gifts onto the cross even unto death so be a living sacrifice Holy and acceptable unto God and let every creation that be before you be a friend for no greater love can a man have than to lay down one's life for if Satan attacks then this is your trial and tribulations, your time on the cross do not harden your heart for when has God seeked after them?

yes to see Jesus and the gospel is to see all of those things

he exhibited his love in the gospel and we also are to give others the same

Hereby perceive we the love of God, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.”
‭‭1 John‬ ‭3:16‬ ‭KJV‬‬

he exhibited patience , gentleness , kindness to his disciples throughout the gospel he exhibited forgiveness to the worst transgressors as they tortured and killed him

“Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do. And they parted his raiment, and cast lots.”
‭‭Luke‬ ‭23:34‬ ‭KJV‬‬

if we embrace the gospel and do this simple thing trusting in him and what he exhibited to us and said To us in the gospel we will be able to grasp those very things and learn to love them also giving the same qualities to others it’s all about Jesus and the gospel it’s how we become changes into his image step by step as we learn and believe

“But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.”
‭‭2 Corinthians‬ ‭3:18‬ ‭KJV‬‬

“But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost: In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.

For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord; and ourselves your servants for Jesus' sake. For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.”
‭‭2 Corinthians‬ ‭4:3-6‬ ‭

we are t his enemies of we believe and become his disciples those who reject him make themselves his enemy rejecting his true face and glory meant to save us and change us into Gods children through faith found in the gospel

“For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.

For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith. For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;”
‭‭Romans‬ ‭1:16-18‬ ‭KJV‬‬

to have faith we need to hear and believe the gospel it’s why the great commission was to preach the gospel in all the world as a witness and all who believed would be saved

we can see God clearly when we look at Jesus in the gospel and believe in him. We learn from his ways and teachings learn all those qualities you rightly want to focus on I was simply talking about how his enemies would come to an end that’s not us believers.
