Love Your Enemies by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. for MLK Day

What better way to celebrate the life and legacy of an American icon than to hear directly from his own words? This message was delivered at Dexter Avenue Baptist Church, Montgomery, Alabama, on November 17, 1957. A fitting subject since Dr. King was so vehemently hated during his lifetime. He is deserving of our time and attention. If we would take this message to heart, it would radically change our world today! Jesus' sermon on the mount still has the power to transform lives. Mat 5:43-45 NKJV - 43 "You have heard that it was said, 'You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.' 44 "But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you, 45 "that you may be sons of your Father in heaven;" -- Join our bible reading plan: https://bible.com/p/37105438/98d214149e0115fd6b7114ad30095ebf Want to receive text updates from our church?
