Now can you answer my question. What does love your neighbor as yourself mean?
Praise God. Love your neighbor as yourself is said to express that a sane person should treat others as they would want others to treat them.
Who is your neighbor? If you see your neighbor headed for destruction are you going to sit back and help them achieve that goal or are you going to do whatever is in your power to stop them?
My Bible states:
Romans 1:16-17
16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. 17 For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, "But the righteous man shall live by faith." NAS
My Bible also teaches:
Matt 28:19-20
19 "Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age. " NAS
Sitting back, legalizing sinful behavior and watching your neighbor take the slippery slope to the lake of fire is far from loving.
