Love thy neighbor*
*unless they hate Jesus 🤔

Laser is a new Christian who is very zealous but unschooled in the Bible… or he’s a Fed. 😅
"David hates them “with perfect hatred” insofar as they oppose God and His kingdom; it is hatred of their wickedness, not a desire for personal revenge."
- John Calvin
In other words:
This is a holy detachment: we count God’s enemies as our enemies in terms of fellowship and approval (Ps 26:5; 101:3–8), refusing to partake in or excuse their sin.
We never hate people in a way that wishes personal harm or withholds the duties of neighbor-love. Vengeance belongs to God alone (Rom 12:19; Deut 32:35).
Believe it or not, the Bible has many books and verses that must be harmonized.
Did Christ exhibit “holy detachment” when he ate with tax collectors and sinners?
Did Christ dine with satanic pedophiles in a holy pact with Evil or did he dine with the common man in Sin?
I know it is hard to believe that there are people of Satan in this world, but it is true.
I think you mean “unholy pact with Evil.” But given that he dined with Judas who was filled by Satan to betray his Lord, I guess he dined with a “Satanist.”
And I completely agree that there are Satanists in this world. But the point is that it is not up to you to decide who can be saved and who cannot be saved. Christ saved the thief on the cross. He can save anyone, even a Satanist.
