LOVE YOUR ENEMIES, OVERCOMING EVIL WITH GOOD

SCRIPTURE LESSONS:

Genesis 45:3-15 – The account of Joseph forgiving his brothers after they had sold him into slavery demonstrates that God overcomes evil with good.

Romans 12:14-21 – Paul lived in a Roman empire that operated on the principles of force and aggressing. Yet, he encourages believers to operate on the principles of grace, forgiveness, and humility.
