How to Love Our Enemies?

Jul 6, 2025    Fr Matthias Shehad
This sermon presents a profound reflection on the Christian teaching of loving one’s enemies, as found in the Gospel reading from the Sermon on the Mount. It emphasizes that loving enemies does not mean enjoying their company or feeling emotional closeness but rather refusing to harbor hatred, praying for them, and serving them as Christ served humanity. This love is supernatural and requires divine grace; it is not achievable by human effort alone.

Listen to this sermon to learn the practical aspects of love, where love is often challenging yet essential for learning to love others, including those who are enemies.........
