Evil Cant Stand Love

Wednesday. Rom. 12: 21 — 13: 10.

The Christ spirit is the overcoming spirit. And the Christ spirit in control always means evil overcome. Indifference to evil strengthens it. Evil for evil intensifies the evil. Good for evil cuts at the very foundations of evil, and so not only overcomes, but undercuts it. Evil cannot progress where it meets the love spirit. It is only as love controls that one can hold steady. Love — pure, steady, winsome, aggressive, undiscourageable — evil can’t stand that.
