Christian Kindness Rooted in Love and Mercy

Jesus tells us that “Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself”. God has created mankind to love one another. Christian kindness is a way of life. No matter how bad the person, no matter how hateful the person, no matter how repulsive the person, we are to show Christian kindness to them just as God has shown His kindness to us. God's kindness and love toward mankind is our best example of Christian kindness. He shows us mercy and kindness because of his love for us, and not because of our works or that we may be pretty good people. God desires us to be kind and compassionate toward everyone in the same way that He loves us no matter whether we hate Him or have turned away from Him.
