Gospel
MATTHEW 5:43-48
43″You have heard that it was said, `You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ 44But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, 45so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven; for he makes his sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust. 46For if you love those who love you, what reward have you? Do not even the tax collectors do the same? 47And if you salute only your brethren, what more are you doing than others? Do not even the Gentiles do the same? 48You, therefore, must be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect.
Nobody is speaking of ‘hating’ the enemy.
Love and hate is NOT what the Ukrainians are acting upon. Self-Defense is NOT about love and hate.
Love is a CHOICE, A Verb, A Way of Life. Self-Defense is Tough Love.
Self defense is based on love, natural love for self, and supernatural love for those whom we defend from unjust violence at the risk of our own lives.
