When the news brokethat notorious late-term abortionist LeRoy Carhart was on his death bed, some pro-life Christians on social media asked for prayers for his conversion. This received a mixed reply, to say the least. LeRoy Carhart died a few days later.
As Christians, we are told in no uncertain terms that we must love our enemy. Jesus said “you have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbour 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” (Matthew 5:43-48).
