from the sermon on the mount

just a couple snippets, the whole speech would blow you away. Find it and be blown.

"You have heard that it was said, ‘An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth.’  But now I tell you: do not take revenge on someone who wrongs you.”
“You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your friends, hate your enemies.’  But now I tell you: love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you.”
