¿Who is the Enemy?
Sometimes it's hard to keep in mind, those who are so loudly opposed to Christianity are not my enemy, they're a victim, self-deceived and blinded by sin as we once were (Eph 2:3).
For our fight is not against flesh and blood, but the spiritual realm (Eph 6:12).
But they are an enemy of God through wicked works (Col 1:21), and that's much worse than being my enemy. It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God (Heb 10:31).
All I can do is sound the warning (Ez 33:8-9) and ask people to judge themselves (2 Cor 13:5, 1 John 5:13) before that day comes when God will judge everyone and punish the wicked (Acts 17:30-31). Repent and live (Luke 13:3, Ez 18:32).
