The Hardest Truth in the Bible | Ty Gibson

Confront the hardest truth in the Bible with Ty Gibson, based on 1 John 4:20: you cannot love God and hate your brother. This message explores how we are naturally “liars” who manufacture personas, and how only truth can set us free. He contrasts Jesus’s radical command in Matthew 5 to “love your enemies” with the “group hate” and “pagan patriotism” that divides our world. Discover why Christianity was meant to be an “alternative community of self-giving love” and how judging others psychologically blocks our ability to receive God’s love.
