These posters were designed by Ministry Growers to illustrate Jesus' radical message of love.
Our Modern American Minds are Callous to the Revolutionary Message Jesus is TellingWe can't understand Jesus' words because we have it so easy. Let's take a minute to remember who he was talking to. Jesus was talking to a group of Jews under the iron fist of the Roman Empire. Many of these people had their sons and daughters, brothers and sisters slaughtered, killed, and murdered by the powers that be. Jesus is telling them to pray for those who persecute them? This message just took on a whole different level of depth. Jesus is calling us to love those who don't deserve it, because we don't deserve it.
But realize that the freedom in Christ is so profound it allows you to love the worst, most vile people ever...Because He first loved you, and nothing else matters.
