We are commanded to love our enemies. I am struggling with it. I understand the concept of conquering evil with good. I understand that it's easy to love those that love you. It costs you nothing. But I've been having very strong feelings of anger and hate, and I'd like the Lord to help me with it.
Hate is one of my current vices...I leave that to God to fix or judge, as I have no other emotion to describe the vile abuses from evil that I have seen and my heart is enraged....
Some times love is a punch to the face. I recall a passage where Christ beat the money changers with a whip he made fro. His own hands. I love God and Jesus Christ but I'm not afraid to fuck a person up to protect myself or someone else. Vaxxers can live with their choice and I could care less either way what their reward is.
The Scripture does not say he hit them with the whip, simply that he used it to clear them out. He may have simply cracked it in the air as a warning, much as one would fire a warning shot against tresspassers.
To love your neighbor means to follow God's Law in your interactions with them. It has nothing to do with feelings or warm fuzzies. It's about how you treat them.
Christianity is a very demanding religion and I am a horribly flawed Christian because of my weakness. I don't even want to make the attempt at this point because I am filled with anger. I am not a violent person but I can't help but feel satisfaction to see some of these people suffer from their own ignorance. Not all, but some just deserve it. Evil is stalking the world and I can't help but rejoice in every small victory against it.
It is demanding. I don't hate the people who took the vax. But I do have some real righteous anger of those who lied and scared the hell out of the people. They deserve death.
My anger comes from the crimes against children. I just don't understand it. I do want to see those people suffer. I am new to Christianity and it has helped me in so many ways, but I struggle with this particular one.

Thank you!

I appreciate you saying this. Be angry and sin not eh?
I would affirm that.
