“You have heard that is was said, Love your neighbow and hate your enemies. But I tell you, love your enimies and pray for those who persecute you , that you may be children of your of your father in heaven. He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and send rain on the righteous and the unrighteous. If you love those who love you, what rewards will you get? Are not even the tax collectors doing that? And if you greet only your people, what are you doing more than others? Do not even pagans do that? Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect.
