Generous Love

Matthew 5 concludes with Jesus’ teaching on the imperative of showing generous love to all people, including our enemies, so that we might imitate our Father in heaven. In this message, Dr. W. Robert Godfrey gives an overview of Matthew 5:38–48, exploring what Jesus means about retaliation and love of enemies, reminding us that our love for others—even those who hate us—is a powerful Christian apologetic.
