Yet the attention given to human entitlements hasn�t brought about any freedom at all. Instead, most people are prisoners of jealousy (you have greater rights than I do!), greed (I deserve more!), or bitterness (my rights have been violated!). Believers should be more concerned about showing God�s love to those who do wrong than about demanding their rights.
Matthew 5:48-46 For if you love those who love you, what reward have you? Do not even the tax collectors do the same?
Mat 5:47 And if you greet your brethren only, what do you do more than others? Do not even the tax collectors do so?
Mat 5:48 Therefore you shall be perfect, just as your Father in heaven is perfect.
