When Jesus tells us: "Be perfect as your heavenly Father is perfect," we are asking for perfection in behavior, but mostly at the mercy, love.
These days when the forces of evil are unleashed against Christians everywhere, even to martyrdom in some body, it is sometimes difficult to exercise mercy to those we seek out tickles. The immediate are the angry words and if we have time until the slaps because what hurts us is not for ourselves but for the offense to everything we believe. Truthful, things taking place against the Church, against our beliefs, the outrages upon the most sacred ... attitude that, in principle, I would be causes swing the sword to defend all that is foremost in my life. And who knows? maybe we are approaching the moment of drawing swords. But Jesus Christ, when they went to capture him, he sent Peter to keep his sword.
Today, as we are asked to be perfect in mercy to others. Asks us for one reason: God us behaves better than we deserve, this should move us to behave well with others, better than they deserve .
love, pray for them is the best rather than unwittingly our enemies that they are of Christ, we can make us , giving us the opportunity to try to be perfect as our Father God is perfect.
The Christian attitude does not mean that we stay on idly by the offenses, the Church, the Pope to our principles. We must look, with all means at our disposal, to lay the groundwork to whom it is necessary, authorities, judges and "Sursun Corda," for respect for our faith.
But, dear friend brother in faith, never let anyone get to hate him.
