Last Sunday, we canned several hundred jars of applesauce after letting the Golden Delicious apples mellow for a few weeks. In the process, we threw away some apples that had started to rot. Should we have thrown away ALL of the apples, because a FEW had gone bad? No, because we valued/loved them. If we had hated them, that rotten excuse might have been appealing, don't you think?

"And Yahushua answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord: And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment. And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt LOVE THY NEIGHBOUR as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these." (Mark 12:29-31 KJV+)

"And let none of you imagine evil in your hearts against his NEIGHBOUR; and love no false oath: for all these are things that I hate, saith Yahuah." (Zechariah 8:17 KJV+)

I understand there were believers in Messiah in Gaza, and am confident that Yahuah does not approve of the slaughter that is happening there.

"... The innocent and righteous slay thou not: for I will not justify the wicked."
