Practicing Radical Christian Love

“Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse.”
Romanos 12:14NVI

This verse is found in one of the most practical sections of Paul's letter to the Romans, where he details how faith should manifest in interpersonal relationships. Instead of reacting according to human instincts of defense or revenge, the Christian is called to a supernatural posture: returning evil with good.
