Re: Have You Ever Had a Christian Enemy?
Define "enemy". I'm not sure what you mean by that.

Like Judas or the one David talked about in the ps 41:9?

Re: Have You Ever Had a Christian Enemy?
Should Christians be enemies with each other?
Is that even possible?
How can someone "Christ-like" have an enemy that is "Christ-like?"

Christ-likeness is an aspiration, not reality.

It's much easier when people can determine you aren't really a Christian if you believe the way you do
