Line 2 is a quote from you. "...the world (Non-christians...)
You clearly say that non believers *are* the world.
You either said or quote from the Bible the following:
Non Christians are:
1. of the world.
2. ARE THE WORLD
3. not of Christ.
4. world persecutes believers.
5. non Christians persecute believers.
Do you love what is not of Christ?

By the way, lines 2 and 4 in your logic are contradictory, and in line 3, through your reasoning, you are claiming that Christ did not die for sinners. Titus 3:9 "But avoid foolish controversies and genealogies and arguments and quarrels about the law, because these are unprofitable and useless"
I don't see where this is going, my points are validated by Scripture, so if you do not agree with what God's Word says, than just don't watch the video or comment because this argument is unprofitable.

The world's sinful ways is not equal to non-Christians. Again, I'm not saying Christians should hate the world, as in hate all people that are not of Christ. What do you suppose 1 John 2:15-16 means, "Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world -- the desires of flesh and the desires of the eys and pride in possessions -- is not from the Father but is from the world."

"non Christians are the world."
"non Christians are not of Christ."
non Christians are sinners.
Christ died for non-Christians.
Christ loved non-Christians.
Christ loved the world.

You are either mocking what the Scripture says or misinterpreting its meaning. This does not mean hate the world. Hating all of God's creation would not make any sense. These verses show that we cannot love the world's sinful ways dominated by Satan. "And you were dead in the trespasses and sins in which you once walked, following the course of this world, following the prince of the power of the air" -Ephesians 2:2
-
"For God so hated the world that he gave his only begotten son..."
As I have said, I am not implying that Christians should hate non-Christians. Watch the video, that's not what I'm saying. This argument is over. It is going nowhere.

You say that you do not hate non-Christians. Does that mean you love them?

Yes, it does. I eagerly want all those that don't know Christ to come to know Him and enjoy Him forever. I am a sinner as well as every non-Christian, and my salvation is not something to boast, because I deserve eternal condemnation. This lesson is about the world being in the hands of Satan, and because of that, to be watchful of the deceit in this world, and not conforming to its evil ways.
