You understand wrong
But that's a central theme of the NT. Showing compassion is not the same as enabling laziness & other sinful behaviour. It's showing a good example & steering them in the right direction.
Love the sinner, hate the sin. That means you put a criminal in jail as punishment & try to guide them to your religion too.
“Love the sinner, hate the sin” is a concept expressed precisely nowhere in the bible.
Matthew 5:44: "But I say to you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you"
Proverbs 6:16-19: "There are six things that the Lord hates, seven that are an abomination to him: haughty eyes, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, a heart that devises wicked plans, feet that make haste to run to evil, a false witness who breathes out lies, and one who sows discord among brothers."
You're right in the way this exact sentence isn't written in the Bible, but if you bring pieces together, this is essentially a true statement.
Matthew 5:44 is about separating enemies of God from your own personal enemies. Proverbs 6:16-19 is a list of reasons why jews are the enemies of God.
It's part of many Christian religious philosophies though.
Sounds like a retarded hippy belief system.
It's actually a justification for punishing sinners (criminals) & came long before the hippies :>
The idea is that forgiving people is very Christ-like, so when someone "sins" like... steals your goat & eats it? You should forgive them. Well you do, but you still punish the sin. Preferably with an iron rod.
Why should I forgive them? Sounds soft and cucked.
What if they rape and murder your daughter? You still going to forgive them?
