Tuesday of week 11 in Ordinary Time, 2

Our task on earth

Matthew 5:43-48 

Jesus is the one atoning for our sins.  He also gives us human hearts so that we might have compassion even for those who have wronged us.

Today's gospel talks about loving one's enemies.  It is a way of atoning for our sins by cutting off all cycles of violence.

We can cut off all tendencies to sin by being faithful to Jesus, learning from his ways, and possessing his own heart.

Just as Jesus' task is saving, not condemning, so too should our mission be on earth.
