Whenever I talk about Christ’s command for us to love other people, i.e., to will the good of other people, folks often ask: But what about Person X, who is actively doing evil against me—how should I love that person? It’s a really good question. Sooner or later in life, you will have enemies—people with malevolent intent towards you. As a follower of Jesus, how should we engage with our enemies? Is there a Christlike way to fight back? YES.
