The answer is: The unthankful and the evil

Luke 6:35

In the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus reveals a profound truth about kindness and divine love: God’s goodness extends even to the "unthankful and the evil." This idea is radical, particularly in a worldview that often emphasizes rewards solely for good behavior. Instead of condemning His enemies, Jesus portrays a God who blesses everyone, offering an extraordinary model of generosity.

This isn’t just an abstract concept; it highlights a deeper understanding of grace. Think about how difficult it is to love those who don't appreciate it or treat us poorly. Yet, Jesus encourages us to strive towards unconditional kindness, just like the divine nature! This way of living connects with the broader theme throughout biblical texts, where mercy and compassion are key tenets.

Interestingly, the verse reminds us of the greater message of forgiveness that permeates Jesus's teachings. The willingness to embrace love for those who wrong us reflects a path towards spiritual maturity. This difficult but radical viewpoint may have easily echoed the wisdom of earlier Hebrew scriptures, like those in Proverbs that speak on living wisdom contrary to worldly practices.

And here’s a fun tidbit: Jesus utilizes rich imagery in nature during His teachings. When considering God's kindness towards all, it may remind us of the sun setting lavishly on both fields of wheat and thorns—a dazzling emblem of grace. Overall, embodying such unconditional love could transform personal relationships and, ultimately, create beautiful ripples of harmony around us!
