Luke Chapter 9, Verse 56
From BibleWiki
56: ο γαρ υιος του ανθρωπου ουκ ηλθεν ψυχας ανθρωπων απολεσαι αλλα σωσαι και επορευθησαν εις ετεραν κωμην
56: For the Son of man is not come to destroy men's lives, but to
save them. And they went to another village.
56: The Son of man came not to destroy souls, but to save. And they
went into another town.
For the Son of man, &c. You should imitate, in your spirit, the Son
of man. He came not to destroy. If he had come for that purpose,
he would have destroyed these Samaritans; but he came to save. He is not
soon angry. He bears patiently opposition to himself, and you
should bear opposition to him. You should catch his spirit; temper your
zeal like his; seek to do good to those who injure you and him; be mild,
kind, patient, and forgiving.
