Believe in Jesus
and Rest in the
House of God
I’m really trying to explain this whole process of loving the enemy and loving everyone, and how love is the win. People don’t seem to understand unconditional love—they base it on things like it’s a payment system—but that’s not it. Love the sinner, not the sin. Love everyone. There’s nothing more joyful than being loving and kind, and I love and forgive everyone wholeheartedly. You can’t fool God, and even if you try to fool me, I’m still with Jesus—and I’m trying to help you get there too.
The heart of this article is God’s words. While my own insights and reflections are included throughout, they are secondary. I recommend watching the video first or reading the full transcript at the bottom of this page.
The Greatest Commandments; Love God Fully and Love Your Neighbor (Everyone)
Matthew 22:34-40
Hearing that Jesus had silenced the Sadducees, the Pharisees got together. One of them, an expert in the law, tested him with this question: “Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?”
Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.”
Mark 12:28-34
One of the teachers of the law came and heard them debating. Noticing that Jesus had given them a good answer, he asked him, “Of all the commandments, which is the most important?”
“The most important one,” answered Jesus, “is this: ‘Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one. Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’ The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no commandment greater than these.”
“Well said, teacher,” the man replied. “You are right in saying that God is one and there is no other but him. To love him with all your heart, with all your understanding and with all your strength, and to love your neighbor as yourself is more important than all burnt offerings and sacrifices.”
When Jesus saw that he had answered wisely, he said to him, “You are not far from the kingdom of God.” And from then on no one dared ask him any more questions.
Romans 6:20-23
When you were slaves to sin, you were free from the control of righteousness. What benefit did you reap at that time from the things you are now ashamed of? Those things result in death! But now that you have been set free from sin and have become slaves of God, the benefit you reap leads to holiness, and the result is eternal life. For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
John 1
The Word Became Flesh
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.
There was a man sent from God whose name was John. He came as a witness to testify concerning that light, so that through him all might believe. He himself was not the light; he came only as a witness to the light.
The true light that gives light to everyone was coming into the world. He was in the world, and though the world was made through him, the world did not recognize him. He came to that which was his own, but his own did not receive him. Yet to all who did receive him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God— children born not of natural descent, nor of human decision or a husband’s will, but born of God.
The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth.
Hebrews 3
Jesus Greater Than Moses
Therefore, holy brothers and sisters, who share in the heavenly calling, fix your thoughts on Jesus, whom we acknowledge as our apostle and high priest. He was faithful to the one who appointed him, just as Moses was faithful in all God’s house. Jesus has been found worthy of greater honor than Moses, just as the builder of a house has greater honor than the house itself. For every house is built by someone, but God is the builder of everything. “Moses was faithful as a servant in all God’s house,” bearing witness to what would be spoken by God in the future. But Christ is faithful as the Son over God’s house. And we are his house, if indeed we hold firmly to our confidence and the hope in which we glory.
Warning Against Unbelief
So, as the Holy Spirit says:
“Today, if you hear his voice,
do not harden your hearts
as you did in the rebellion,
during the time of testing in the wilderness,
where your ancestors tested and tried me,
though for forty years they saw what I did.
That is why I was angry with that generation;
I said, ‘Their hearts are always going astray,
and they have not known my ways.’
So I declared on oath in my anger,
‘They shall never enter my rest.’”
See to it, brothers and sisters, that none of you has a sinful, unbelieving heart that turns away from the living God. But encourage one another daily, as long as it is called “Today,” so that none of you may be hardened by sin’s deceitfulness. We have come to share in Christ, if indeed we hold our original conviction firmly to the very end. As has just been said:
“Today, if you hear his voice,
do not harden your hearts
as you did in the rebellion.”
Who were they who heard and rebelled? Were they not all those Moses led out of Egypt? And with whom was he angry for forty years? Was it not with those who sinned, whose bodies perished in the wilderness? And to whom did God swear that they would never enter his rest if not to those who disobeyed? So we see that they were not able to enter, because of their unbelief.
Love Your Enemies
Matthew 5:43-48
“You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, that you may be children of your Father in heaven. He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous. If you love those who love you, what reward will you get? Are not even the tax collectors doing that? And if you greet only your own people, what are you doing more than others? Do not even pagans do that? Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect.”
Luke 6:27-36
“But to you who are listening I say: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you. If someone slaps you on one cheek, turn to them the other also. If someone takes your coat, do not withhold your shirt from them. Give to everyone who asks you, and if anyone takes what belongs to you, do not demand it back. Do to others as you would have them do to you.
If you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? Even sinners love those who love them. And if you do good to those who are good to you, what credit is that to you? Even sinners do that. And if you lend to those from whom you expect repayment, what credit is that to you? Even sinners lend to sinners, expecting to be repaid in full. But love your enemies, do good to them, and lend to them without expecting to get anything back. Then your reward will be great, and you will be children of the Most High, because he is kind to the ungrateful and wicked. Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful.”
Romans 12:17-21
Do not repay anyone evil for evil. Be careful to do what is right in the eyes of everyone. If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone. Do not take revenge, my dear friends, but leave room for God’s wrath, for it is written: “It is mine to avenge; I will repay,” says the Lord.
On the contrary:
“If your enemy is hungry, feed him;
if he is thirsty, give him something to drink.
In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head.”
Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
1 Corinthians 13:1-8
If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing.
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away.
Satan as Father of Lies and Murderer from the Beginning
John 8:42-47
Jesus said to them, “If God were your Father, you would love me, for I have come here from God. I have not come on my own; God sent me. Why is my language not clear to you? Because you are unable to hear what I say. You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies. Yet because I tell the truth, you do not believe me! Can any of you prove me guilty of sin? If I am telling the truth, why don’t you believe me? Whoever belongs to God hears what God says. The reason you do not hear is that you do not belong to God.”
Light vs. Darkness, Life vs. Death, and the Good Shepherd (Jesus)
John 8:12
When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.”
John 10:1-18
The Good Shepherd
“Very truly I tell you Pharisees, anyone who does not enter the sheep pen by the gate, but climbs in by some other way, is a thief and a robber. The one who enters by the gate is the shepherd of the sheep. The gatekeeper opens the gate for him, and the sheep listen to his voice. He calls his own sheep by name and leads them out. When he has brought out all his own, he goes on ahead of them, and his sheep follow him because they know his voice. But they will never follow a stranger; in fact, they will run away from him because they do not recognize a stranger’s voice.” Jesus used this figure of speech, but the Pharisees did not understand what he was telling them.
Therefore Jesus said again, “Very truly I tell you, I am the gate for the sheep. All who have come before me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep have not listened to them. I am the gate; whoever enters through me will be saved. They will come in and go out, and find pasture. The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.
I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep. The hired hand is not the shepherd and does not own the sheep. So when he sees the wolf coming, he abandons the sheep and runs away. Then the wolf attacks the flock and scatters it. The man runs away because he is a hired hand and cares nothing for the sheep.
I am the good shepherd; I know my sheep and my sheep know me—just as the Father knows me and I know the Father—and I lay down my life for the sheep. I have other sheep that are not of this sheep pen. I must bring them also. They too will listen to my voice, and there shall be one flock and one shepherd. The reason my Father loves me is that I lay down my life—only to take it up again. No one takes it from me, but I lay it down of my own accord. I have authority to lay it down and authority to take it up again. This command I received from my Father.”
In Gods House
Romans 12:9-21
Love in Action
Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good. Be devoted to one another in love. Honor one another above yourselves. Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord. Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer. Share with the Lord’s people who are in need. Practice hospitality.
Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse. Rejoice with those who rejoice; mourn with those who mourn. Live in harmony with one another. Do not be proud, but be willing to associate with people of low position. Do not be conceited.
Do not repay anyone evil for evil. Be careful to do what is right in the eyes of everyone. If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone. Do not take revenge, my dear friends, but leave room for God’s wrath, for it is written: “It is mine to avenge; I will repay,” says the Lord.
On the contrary:
“If your enemy is hungry, feed him;
if he is thirsty, give him something to drink.
In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head.”
Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
1 John 4:7-21
God’s Love and Ours
Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love. This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him. This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins. Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God lives in us and his love is made complete in us.
This is how we know that we live in him and he in us: He has given us of his Spirit. And we have seen and testify that the Father has sent his Son to be the Savior of the world. If anyone acknowledges that Jesus is the Son of God, God lives in them and they in God. And so we know and rely on the love God has for us.
God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in them. This is how love is made complete among us so that we will have confidence on the day of judgment: In this world we are like Jesus. There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love.
We love because he first loved us. Whoever claims to love God yet hates a brother or sister is a liar. For whoever does not love their brother and sister, whom they have seen, cannot love God, whom they have not seen. And he has given us this command: Anyone who loves God must also love their brother and sister.
These passages fit very well with the themes in your transcript — especially sincere love, hating evil while doing good, blessing persecutors, overcoming evil with good, God being love itself, and how loving others (even difficult or enemy-like people) proves we truly know God.
They emphasize unconditional love that isn’t based on what others do for us, which directly counters the “payment system” idea you mentioned.
Would you like me to combine all the scriptures (including the ones from before) into one clean, organized list? Or format any of them specifically for video descriptions, subtitles, or a script? Just say the word!
Transcript with punctuation and edits.
If I don’t know that this is the thing I will I don’t know Okay, it’s long. It’s maybe too long. But here’s the thing—I’m really trying to explain this whole process of loving the enemy and loving everyone, and how love is the win.
It’s funny, because I’m trying to explain it to people who don’t seem to understand unconditional love. They base love on things, like it’s a payment system—“these people do this for me, so I love them for it.” No. That’s not it.
You can love without conditions. Like my kid used to say, “I don’t like this” or “I hate this,” and I’d say, don’t hate anything. I mean, sure, hate bad things—hate lies, hate murder—but don’t hate the murderer. And yeah, that sounds weird to people who don’t understand that this is the same grace given to everyone through Jesus.
Even when people are talking about me, saying things as if they are me—here’s the thing: even if I made a mistake, even if I’m wrong, a good person would say, “Okay, let’s talk about it. Let’s figure out what’s going on.” That’s what being helpful, loving, and kind looks like. That’s what Jesus showed—people needed help, conversation, understanding.
And the reward of being a good person is simple: it’s good. Loving someone feels good. There’s nothing more joyful than being kind. I don’t know what “team bad” experiences, but it’s not love—it’s lust, transactions, harmful behavior. So I just come back to this: I love and forgive everyone wholeheartedly.
Jesus gave the two most important rules—love God with all your heart, mind, and soul, and then love everyone. Think about it like this: if someone mistreats your child, it hurts you too. So when people are unkind, dishonest, or cruel, it’s like they’re doing that to God’s creation.
If someone is pushing your child off a cliff, God is there to catch them—but you’d try to stop it too. So yes, love everyone. Love the sinner, not the sin.
The reality is, people have been fooled. There’s deception everywhere. The idea that the world runs on systems that reward bad behavior—it exists. But there’s also a system that rewards good, and that system is love. Love is unconditional, and it’s powerful.
Through Jesus, that pull toward sin can be replaced with righteousness. You start to notice that voice that tells you to react badly—like yelling at someone after a car accident, even when there’s no real reason to. That voice pushes anger, even when you don’t need it.
And people think they’ll fix things through systems, through cycles, through control—but they’re being fooled. The more someone plays inside that system, the more they can become part of the deception.
So step out of it. Choose love.
Even when it comes to enemies—sometimes the “enemy” is your own behavior, your own past actions, the parts of you that were misled. So stop feeding that. Change it.
There are also people who speak well, say the right things, but something doesn’t line up. They separate themselves, elevate themselves, but won’t connect with people in need. And that matters, because how you treat the least is how you treat Jesus.
God is asking for love—for Him, and for all His creation. That includes everyone, even the ones who are lost or acting in harmful ways. Because anyone can be fooled.
I was fooled. I trusted people who hurt me. There were real harms, real attempts on my life, and still—I love and forgive them. Not because it’s easy, but because it’s right.
People might say you should feel good when bad things happen to those people, but I don’t. I feel sad, because they’re lost, and I want them to find their way back. That’s the hardest part—not being able to help someone who’s deeply trapped in deception.
And yes, there are people acting out roles, mocking, imitating—it’s obvious sometimes. But what matters more is understanding why they’re doing it. They believe there’s something to gain from harming others, and that’s where the real loss is.
Because harming others never leads to anything good.
The message is consistent—light is life, darkness is death, and love is the path forward. It all connects.
So here it is, simply: I love and forgive everyone. The attempts to confuse, manipulate, or harm me won’t work. You can’t fool God, and even if you try to fool me, it doesn’t change where I stand.
I’m still with Jesus, and I’m trying to help others get there too. Because right now, people are hurting themselves, making destructive choices, and I want to help catch them before they fall.
I even thought maybe the best way to reach people is by being honest about my own mistakes. Yes, I’ve done wrong. I’ve made bad choices. Small things, big things—it’s part of being human. But those experiences can be used to teach, to connect, to help others see more clearly.
Real love isn’t lust. It’s not shallow, and it’s not transactional. It’s something deeper, something constant.
And the world—systems, power structures, control—none of that replaces truth. You don’t fix everything through those systems. You fix things by choosing good, by choosing love, by being kind and truthful.
So instead of pointing fingers, I’ve tried reaching out. And the message stays the same: why talk about someone when you could talk with them?
Because often, there’s a plan behind it. But no plan overrides God’s plan.
So I stay where I am—in love, in truth, in faith.
I’m not here to harm anyone. I’m here to help people heal, to come back to truth, to understand what love really is. Not ego, not self-obsession—but real, honest love.
So fix what’s broken. Tell the truth. Come clean.
Talk with me, not about me.
I don’t need to know every plan—I follow God’s plan, and that’s enough.
I love you. Come to what is good. Come to love. Come forward with Jesus.
