day no. 16,561: loving your neighbor's neighbor

Promoting and funding abortion is not loving your neighbor, especially, it should be noted, the one being murdered.

Matthew 22:38-40

This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.

You cannot love your neighbor without first loving God. If you do not love Him and receive your definition of love from Him, you will only hurt your neighbor, even in your attempts to "love" him.

You do not love your neighbor by letting them murder your other neighbor. If your neighbor is hurting someone, you only add more hurt to the equation by trying to love the first neighbor at the expense of the second. You are hurting your first neighbor by supporting their sin and you are hurting your second neighbor by ignoring their plight, even condoning and cheering on the sinful behavior of the first neighbor that is hurting them. 

You must love your neighbor's neighbor. 

You do not love one neighbor by encouraging them to sin against your other neighbor. Love must be defined by the standards of God, not the wishes of one of our neighbor's, especially when those wishes directly harm another one of your other neighbors.

Your neighbor is whoever is in front of you and you should stop her from killing the neighbor who is inside her.
