A lot of the NT talk about loving your "brother" actually translates as "fellow believer" not "people."
It's a guide for community-building ("you gotta get along, guys, you live together") not instructions to surrender to the prince of this world.
Yep.
It's Scofield-esque 'Judeo-Christianity' and deliberate mistranslations all the way down most places.
Christianity is practically counterculture at this point.
Tbf, Jesus also said to love your enemies. That doesn't mean abandon your moral principles, but it is important to throw out there.
Agreed. That gets into the topic of how "love" should mean "what is best for you" not "whatever you want," something people increasingly refuse to understand.
Coincidentally, what's best for my enemies is for me to defeat them.
Want to know what Christ's love looked like? Six words.
"Go forth, and sin no more."
Shortened to 3 words:
"Stop being retarded."
